Newley signs with 36ers for three years

I just noticed Andrew Rice is only worth a 2, would he be worth a look at for the back up PF spot??? i reckon he would be a ok pick up aslong as he is on the cheap side, my preference probably would be to give Simon Conn a shot though as a young guy like him is always exciting to see come into the league and he seems to be rated highly by many on some of the forums

I'm not a huge fan of people wanting us to sign weathers. He really wasn't a deserving MVP and watching him play for the Breakers last year, his shot selection isn't too impressive. He also doesn't provide much else apart from his scoring and I fail to see how he is an upgrade on Farley? Would prefer to see some new blood at the 2nd import spot.

I like skips team of

C - Cooper / Dench
PF - Ballinger / Conn?? Dodman??
SF - Wethers / Copeland
SG - Newley / Ng /
PG - Maher / Davidson / Sutton

Id like the 36ers to look for a import in the Dave Thomas mould personally but if they want a proven player Wethers, (im pretty sure they almost signed him a few years back when it looked like Farley was going to leave) would be one of the best available and i dont think he is a 10 point import which gives us more room to sign someone like a Simon Conn, who at tops i would say would be a 3. and then i would leave Dodman in the development spot to suit up home games and fill in for injuries. I say that team stacks up with any on paper so exciting times ahead i think!!

From watching Newley last year, I say he will play NBL next year, as his game didnt improve that much, which was needed for him to get drafted. He always relied on his 3pt shot first before getting to the rim and on a number of occassions got himself into trouble and turned it over.

This is a good get for the sixers a proven scorer which will help there playoff chances.

Is this the 36ers roster only 1 import(including the un anounced signings of Dench and Copeland) away from being complete??? or are we going to go with 11 and use the remaining points i think someone worked out we have 2 points left to sign a back up PF??? could we get Simon Conn for 2 points?? considering he has never played NBL before and has played more than a full year of ABA in Victoria i dont think he could be rated too highly so we may have a chance, i reckon it would be something definatly looking into

I'd say both Newley and Dench deserve seperate press conferences, especially Newley as he is the best SA player, other than Maher, we have signed in a long time and is bound to excite the fans!!
What do people think, will Newley be in uniform for us next year?? i say yes, all this NBA talk is similar to last year and with other guys in the past like a young Mackinnon for example, i dont expect Newley to be in the NBA personally, but best of luck to him if he gets there, he is one hell of a player but the NBA is a tough gig to get and Newley wouldnt really be seen as a specific role player either. From the thing i saw on the news with him the other night it doesnt sound as if he is overly interested in Europe so i actually reckon he will be a 36er next season, which is great news for us, and if we can add a quality 2nd import with what we have i reckon we should be able to give the title a shot! Well done to Mal Hemmerling, Phil Smyth and Paul Bauer and the whole club on a great pick up!!
