Scott Roth and Ben Gold press conference vs Illawarra Hawks Round 4 NBL27

Head coach Scott Roth and Ben Gold front the media after our 122–112 win over the Illawarra Hawks. Scotty liked how poised the group was for three quarters on the road in a tough building, and that gave us enough of a cushion. He was just as clear that the fourth quarter wasn’t up to our standards: undisciplined, and we lost concentration. That’s the focus when we get back to Tassie: video, practice, and learning to finish a quarter properly. He also praised David Johnson, who had 32 points off the bench, and the new additions who’ve come in and done their job. Coach gave due respect to a former JackJumper and championship winner on the other side, and spoke about what the Jewels mean for young girls across the state.

Ben Gold added 14 off the bench. He talked about the freedom and confidence the coaching staff give him to stay aggressive, and the underdog mindset that drew him to the club. He also credited how much he’s learning by matching up against our bigs every day at training.
