As the Starlight Foundation funds the dreams of sick kids, many adults surely had their dreams come true to be able to sit in the stands and enjoy an hour of fun heckling top sportsmen and pollies. (Dunkin’ Dom courts Nick for his team, 25/4). Trading whiteboards for back-boards, dangling Dominic Perrottet learnt the “back court” had no QCs, “dribbling” was done with a ball rather than a microphone and “carrying the ball” for the team is punishable. He was perhaps grateful that the biggest nuisance heckler of the year chose to upset a Broncos NRL game rather than the 2GB-supported charity basketball event. (Belted Broncos fan hit by fines after yelling in minute silence, 24/4). To support continuity, one might hope Labor’s Chris Minns refines his skills with the ball before next year’s rematch just in case the Premier’s luck at elections matches yesterday’s scoreboard.
