Good win by the Hawks. They played much better basketball than the Wildcats.
Obviously the mid-season break has been bad for the Wildcats. They seem to have lost momentum
What have you heard about Ennis' temper normally? Someone said he turned around and said to a female "suck my xxxx" after being fouled out. After kicking a chair. Surely some kind of penalty is warranted?
Am not too sure about the "suck my xxxx" comment as i sit 4 rows behind the opposition bench and i did not hear any comment like that so if it was said it was not said loudly. It also may have been directed to one particular person in the crowd that was doing a lot of heckling that was fuelled by alcohol. We do not need people like that at games spoiling it for everyone else.
Personally although kicking a chair is some what childsh I don't think it deserves a fine.
On the other hand will the wildcats be fined for leaving the court when the refs were still deciding how much time was still on the the game clock to finish the first half.
He seems fairly mild normally, but this is the second game in a row that there has been reports Ennis had something to say to the crowd. Not smart, but I dont like to speculate on stuff I havent heard/seen.
From what I heard, that was a stuff up by the Wollongong bench and the referees.

Rocky season for a Hawks fan but they are playing well at the moment, needed some time together to mesh.
Great season so far!
I just hope that Clarke decides that he wants to keep playing for the Hawks rather than take better money from Europe and that they decide to keep Tiggs. Tiggs has taken time to find his feet so to say but we need to keep a full team together.
For me though the best move by the hawks this season has been at the far end of the bench, have not sighted zac in a while, personally I say hoo bloody ray.

Loving that Tiggs has game fitness back, how embarassing was the 3 missed dunks v Perth, from that to MASSIVE clutch game play alley oops! Love it!
It has been a pattern the past 10 years or so, that Hawks find the talent, they show it for a season and then get poached, sometimes because we can't match the offer, but sometimes because I don't think they want to pay the extra, well sometimes you need to lol! - Charles Thomas, Adam Ballinger, Gary Ervin just a few that come to mind, yeah, hope Rotnei is able to be signed again after this massive season!
Ervin was a classic example, the guy wins MVP of the league yet we don't resign him and we all know what Ballinger went on to acheive. The days of not paying to the full extent of the salary cap need to be re thought if we want to keep the good players.
Rotnei was not expected to sign in the first place so lets hope the powers that be don't say "oh well he was a bonus anyway" and then let him walk.
As for Tiggs, that alley-oop amongst all that traffic was just awesome. His vertical leap is amazing!

Rotnei was ice cold after the first 3 make, even from the FT, a couple of made FT's would've been the diff. shame!
