Tom Maher to NZ, Jan Stirling out?

Tom Maher re-signed by the Tall Ferns
Stirling work unlikely to save Opals coach
What's that rumbling sound? That may be the apocalypse coming.
A bit more seriously, this could be the dawn of a new era in Australian women's basketball. Tom and Jan represent the "old school" of coaching and are BA favourites. I apprecciate what they've done for Australian WBB but their time is over and we need somebody more progressive (read: more adaptable and realises that offence is just as important as defence and that it's perfectly ok to run plays for your offensive focal points) to ensure we stay in the top echelon of women's basketball and continue to challenge the US.
