Don't know why you guys ever thought you were getting Luke.....


Any confirmation on Bruce going to Sydney or is that just the rumor mill again?
As for Croswell, I'll say he's a pick I wouldn't have chosen but he's proven a capable player. I pray to god that Marty does something about his horrid foulshot.

Whats with slotting Creek in at backup PF all of a sudden guys? He does not have the size to play PF on a regular basis. He will backup Weigh. Bank on it.

my guess is they would use Shawntes Gary as the cheap import SG/SF alongside a Ervin or Mills type PG.
He looks like a Winder type, so yea i agree i wouldnt want him as the starting PG but at SG i think he would be fine, as would Winder have been.
Hopefully we will manage to get a line up like
Schenscher/Johnson
Ballinger/Creek
Weigh/Herbert
Gary(cheap import)/Ng
Ervin/Crosswell
That should have us well into finals contention.
If that doesnt fit points wise, i dont think it does on quick guestimates, either leave out Herbert and replace him with a 1 point player, or Start Herbert and go with 1 import and a cheap aussie ie Dowdell, not sure which 1 id chose, id probably start Herbert and go with 1 import personally, but a close call.

LOL @ Peter, you give Crosswell crap in this thread about him being a dud yet in the other thread you stated we are losing our best players referring to Jacob Holmes, clearly your just bashing any decision that Clarke is making, you need a spoon of cement to harden up, Clarke is here to stay whether you like it or not. you must be Ninnis or at least related to him

Seriously im seeing Ervin mentioned a lot, is he literally a high possibility or is it wishful thinking?

I reckon they are looking at him as a cheap import, if Luke signs there will only be enough money left for 2 average imports, or 1 gun and 1 solid div 2 import.

Shawntes Gary Highlights


I think your right Tornado. He dropped 36 on Homicide earlier in the week. Looks like a flat out scorer and a pretty good rebounder. Dunno about how he would go as a point in the NBL tho. His assist numbers aren't great.

I like crosswell, I wanted him before we signed Carter last season, so if this is true i am happy. He will give us a good ball handler off the bench. I think it's also a good thing to have a veteran pg off the bench. I'd hope that he could put up similar numbers to what carter did last season.
He absolutely killed us when townsville were here last, so lets hope he can bring some of that to the team.

If true, looks like an insurance signing by Marty should he not snag the starting PG he is after. Crosswell is a nice safe pair of hands who could step in and start if he had to and is a solid signing if he truly does come cheap.
