Wildcats look to replace Matt Knight

Injury replacements are a hell of a lot easier if you can look outside the country for help.
Both import spots being filled is pretty limiting when it comes to picking up someone of real quality in the short term.
When constructing this season's roster, we gambled on Matty staying healthy, and we're paying the price right now. Shit happens.

@Dazz - "Meanwhile, Perth coach Trevor Gleeson has conceded the Cats are unlikely to replace Knight during his stretch on the sidelines.

The club had originally hoped to sign a fill-in for the six-week stint, but a search for a short-term replacement has been fruitless.

“There’s not much out there to come in for a short time for four or five games,” Gleeson said.

“Most people are under contract or want a multi-year deal.

“Matt’s started exercising now on the bike and in the pool, so hopefully he’ll get back in the right time.”

Maybe all the money is being saved up to fund the Brisbane team?

I have complete faith in Jervis holding the fort till Knight returns, I'm not entirely sure they need a replacement unless there's a chance he will miss the playoffs . I'm still baffled as to why Jervis wasn't in the last minutes of Friday nights game vs the 36ers.

Is there an exemption for season-ending injuries? I thought it was a blanket can only operate as an injury replacement for one player in the season.

Remember, Muo will play no further part once Hire returns, due to the injury replacement player regs. He's no longer an option.

" Former Boomers point -uard Luke Martin trained with the club today and is likely to be offered a short-term injury replacement contract, with the club conducting a wide-ranging search to fill the other spot on the roster "

Unless Luke Martin has improved significantly, I would of put Muo miles ahead as a replacement for Ross.

Id like to see Gruber get a run. ITs not for very long and he is some tall timber

I like Prue as a short term replacement. He is a rebounding King, averaged near 25 boards per game in the SBL and has spent some time with the cats in the past.
