NBL EXPERIENCE
Rob Feaster made his NBL debut with the Perth Wildcats at 28 years of age. He scored 13 points in his first game.
Feaster battled through leg injuries during his second season in Perth and at the end of the 2002/03 season he was offered a contract to return, but at a 30 percent pay cut. He chose to sign a larger, two-season deal with the Giants for the 2003/04 season, becoming the focal point on offence.
“We see him as our franchise player,” said Giants chief executive Rod Hind after signing Feaster.

Feaster’s college career at Holy Cross began in 1991/92.
In 29 games, he averaged 8.0 points and 3.2 rebounds, and was named the Patriot League Rookie of the Year.
He followed that campaign with a sophomore season in which the Crusaders placed second in the conference regular season, won the Patriot League Tournament, and earned a berth in the 1993 NCAA Tournament.
In 1992–93, Holy Cross went 23–7 overall (12–2 Patriot League) under head coach George Blaney, won the Patriot League tournament to earn the conference’s automatic NCAA Tournament bid, and lost to Arkansas 94–64 in the first round as a No. 13 seed in the East region.
Feaster led the team in scoring at 17.7 points per game for the season and was also named the conference tournaments most valuable player.
He totaled 532 points across 30 games (17.7 points per game) in 1992–93, and he recorded 57 steals that season.
It was Holy Cross first NCAA Tournament appearance since the 1979–80 season, and with a 24–7 record, just their third 20-win season since then as well.

Feasters final season in 1994/95 came with Holy Cross finishing 15–12 overall (9–5 in conference) and reaching the Patriot League tournament quarterfinals under head coach Bill Raynor, with Feaster again serving as a team captain (alongside Gordon Hamilton).
He earned his third all-conference selection behind a third consecutive season in which he led Holy Cross in scoring at 25.0 points per game.
He totaled 674 points across 27 games in 1994–95 (25.0 points per game) and led the team in rebounding with 186 total rebounds (6.9 per game).
