Boomers - Possibles vs Probables

Why just one pure shooter? If he has an off day then we're screwed.
Most top European teams would have two or more good outside shooters on the court at any time.

Of all the players being put forward for the Boomers, most aren't reliable outside shooters. After Mills, Ingles, Delly there's daylight.
If we can't guarantee that we'll dominate inside then maybe we need to change the mix to replace the athletic or big old hands with some proven outside shooters. Fast-track Broekhoff, Drmic, Lisch (if available) and anyone else with a decent 3-point %. Have a shooting camp or something. ANYTHING to give us some reliable outside threats!

Agree with Motum to replace Bogut if unavailable, and Wortho to replace Andersen if he's out of form.

Still reckon Newley is no longer producing at the level we need, so I'd swap him with Drmic.

Hey all, remember that Ryan Broekhoeff was the last guy cut from the London team in favour of PC!

Simmons is not yet ready to go up against men, but given a couple of years most probably.

Khazzouh has indicated he wants to reoresent Lebanon...

Barlow is no longer on my radar for the Boomers...but you could argue he is a 'probable'...

Oops...my bad I left out Ingles by mistake! And haters, he is a lock!!!

Gliddon at the least would be in a development spot, Blanchfield could be a probable or development as well.

I honestly don't think Gliddon is even close. I doubt he'll ever make the Boomers team.

Interesting development .....

"It is understood Vukona wants a starting role, but the Breakers see him as an impact player off the bench.It is also understood the Wollongong Hawks are keen to secure Vukona's services."

Is it realistic for Vukona to become a starting 5 player ?
