It is in the second video after the commentators an earlier video is shown of the Aussies taking out the Pinoys when they are not involved in the play at all when the Pinoys backs are facing them. Oz defender No. 4 is the main offender and now I can understand why he got flattened and can even understand the Pinoy coach telling his players to be aggressive if it was in response to incidents mentioned. The refs should have been sending Oz players off way beforehand. That is if the video is not selective. It was (Tommy R) Kickert who started the fire and the other mob over-reacted shockingly. I know we should not forgive them for killing Majellan. Should Kickert have been arrested and locked up and goes to court only after the international basketball federation have dealt with the Pinoy team?

Report this mob to the Press Tribunal for biased and un-Australian reporting.

Both teams are to blame but officials and bench players got involved from the Philippines which is where my problem is..
But one of the Philippine cadets was shielding the Australian player on the ground. He is standing over him in this picture.
Story and interview with the cadet below

Sounds like slap stick comedy.
Unless we see the full video we don't know what came first. Before the flare up there was definitely argy bargy by Aussie no. 4 as shows in my last post. Also Kickert made it worse by standing over his victim when already on the floor - no wonder the Filos re-acted (shhhh Kickert is not an Aussie). I feel sorry for both teams except Kickert - the ref has already called a foul before he stepped in.

A bloke that I’ve known for ages,through football, runs a Security Business there, has said for a long time that they are similar to a lot of Asian’s who are lovely to your face, , but when you are not around it all changes,
Says that there is a permanent undercurrent of violence and Corruption in the country,
No doubt there is some beautiful places there, but he has said way before this that he refuses to go anywhere with out at least one gun in the car.
I know he’s in a business where he sees a lot of that violence, but if it wasn’t for the money, he’d never go near the place,
And that the worst corruption is entrenched in the Police & the Politicians.

Australia play hard bball. Theres no coincidence that deli is always in the mix if something is rough in the NBA.
But…thats the game, some late checks, a off the ball tussle, big deal. What the philos showed is their complete lack of class, skill and understanding of the game.
Stickers on the court? have a cry, i have seen this happen is local rep games. players safety is key and those things can be slippery as all hell. To me it luc put it perfect, they were embarrassed and tried to muscle up to put the boomers off. Big fail and now the whole team looks like a pack of thugs. Luckily no one can throw a punch or there could of been some real injuries. Kudos to the Aussie bench for not jumping in aswell. Another show of class that is lightyears ahead of what the disgraceful philos showed. Im hoping they are booted from the comp and the hosting rights removed. absolute trash team

I was over there recently and by accident was underpaying a sidewalk vendor of halo halo shaved ice drink. He never complained but just didn't smile as usually guaranteed. A few days later after it occurred a few times he told me the correct price, I apologised and coughed up and we become friends.
I have lived there when doing business and had people waiting on me everywhere and many, though poverty-stricken, never asked me for anything in return. I feel more safe there when walking in the back blocks than Byron Bay late at night in the touro season.
They are on starvation wages so that even stingy me must go back and tip them.

Basketball is the Big sport over there, no footy ovals or whatever , Bball courts only. I am thinking because Manny P is somewhat of a god ,there may have been some underlying strong feelings against Oz as well. Kickerts' unnecessary retaliation opened the floodgates to some wild shite
The thread should be renamed "Filipino basketball and more assorted acid induced BBF anecdotes that didn't happen."

Actually similar situation to few months ago when I repeatedly rammed that sewerage pipe into my female neighbour who was attacking me with a rake and I gave her husband a king hit with it for good measure. The cops came and it was their double word against mine but the cops did not press charges - self defence.

No more than other countries. Power has the power to corrupt. People can be corrupted. It isn't a race issue so best not make it one.
But i concur in some Asian countries there is the politeness to your face. In Japaanese it is called: 本音建前 Honne and tatemae: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honne_and_tatemae

Instead, we should put next year's game in Paddington and include a few gays and queers. That sounds fair.
