Tigers contracts

The Dorsey and Ubaka signings show why u sign imports last and Australian players first and why u don't sign them to multiyear deals. As a result the roster is poorly balanced. The talent is there which is sad.

This is worth re-reading, now that we're many months down the track. I especially love Gleeson referring to his team as athletic when his offense doesn't allow them to be.

Isaac, d'oh - I didn't count.

I'd keep Allen and get an import Centre or PF (to guarantee quality), force Dorsey to naturalise in order to stay, and then hunt for a decent Aussie or Kiwi SG.

Keep: Allen, Dillon, Tragardh, Rush, Burston, Wilcher and Short

Get rid of: Dorsey, Walker, Greer, Lewis, Lang and Gleeson

Will be interesting to see who stays if Gleeson is the coach. Players have to be unhappy.

I'd like to know if Tigers cut Greer, would there be the same outcry as there was for Corletto?

I'm assuming Dorsey gets kept as a non-playing reserve or he gets naturalised; otherwise, we need more from him as an import.

I still reckon, though, that this team needs a new coach who can let them run.
Greer, Rush, Dorsey, Dillon, Allen, even Burston can't show their best as long as we have a coach who forces them to play half-court, slog-it-out ball.
