Australia vs Canada, RAC Arena, 16 & 17 August 2019

Bleedblueandgold · Apr 13, 2019

Announced a while ago, but not posted about yet afaik. Playing 2 games before the games vs USA at Marvel Stadium.
Who knows if Canada will send over any of their NBA players, but still a good chance to watch the Boomers ahead of the World Cup for Boomers supporters. Should at least be a much better lineup than the previous Boomers games in Perth.
Tickets already on sale from April 11.

$90 for average seats to a warm up game vs Canada. Seems steep.

yeah pricing is crazy, I think they will struggle to sell hoping for a late fire sale

I'm going with my son on the Friday night (Fremantle play on Saturday), then going to Melbourne for the Saturday game v USA.

Great news!

Fantastic. That means all our NBA based players have committed to the Boomers this year.

Minus Exum (injury) and possibly Broekhoff, who may miss because his partner is giving birth.

Bleedblueandgold · May 15, 2019

Hopefully he'll also participate in the warm-up games in Australia. Can't see him flying straight to China.

Dr Awkward · May 16, 2019

Starting 5?
Simmons
Mills
