- With the culture in mind, looking the the future what that looks like.
- Understanding what representing your country as a Boomer truly means.
- This campaign is now the minimum standard expectation is high.
It was passionate, it was emotional, it was from the heart. I found it brilliant and the frauds running around in the Navy Blue jumper should watch it and learn.
The men who represented the Boomers played the game the way it should be played. I cant seem Ben Simmons fitting into that.

Yes, Patty spoke very well - almost as well as he played!
Brian Goorjian must take a lot of credit for the Boomers finally cracking it for a medal.. He is a great coach who understands the game and team culture/dynamics. His teams always have a crack.
It was interesting to hear how the present team embraced past Boomers and were embraced by them in return. I listened to Lindsay Gaze and Shane Heal on the wireless and they couldn't have been any prouder.

Amazing to listen to, explained his role, how he delegates to all the assistants and only chimes in when he thinks its needed. Talked about giving the guys a bit of a serve after the US game to the effect of "this aint over, we still got work to do (bronze medal), pick your chin up off the ground and get on with it".

Very decent person is Brian Goorjian, lot of loud energy about him but underneath all that he is a caring bloke and I was pleased
he played his part in such a milestone for Aus basketball.
I'm a Spurs fan but I'd like to see Patty get a ring with Brooklyn, been a real ambassador for the game and never put a foot wrong as a Spurs player and deserves the kudos he is getting.

Interestingly, the "Boomers Culture" has been around longer than Goorj. It has always been pretty player-driven, with Andrew inheriting it from those previous to him, and then him passing it on to Hammer, Luc, Vlahof, and then in turn to Patty, Joe and Delly. But then you have had the coaches that have helped nurture that culture (Lindsay, Adrian Hurley, Barry Barnes, Lemanis, Brett Brown and now Goorj).
Drawing parellels to the problems at Carlton - it does show that its not just the players and its not just the coaches - it is the 2 groups working together to set the culture. We need to get BOTH right!!

Absolutely!
I think that all of the Boomers coaches have been good and Goorjian is probably lucky to have a very talented squad with more depth than we have had before. I thought that losing Baynes would screw our chances but the coach and players made adjustments and got on with the job. Hopefully, our club will learn to do the same.

Goorjian is 68 years old, yet in the AFL even 50 year old coaches are supposedly past it.
