I think the answer to the OP's question is no, no-one is excited by the roster. But that doesn't mean its a bad roster. There is a lot of great Australian talent on our team and I think the club has done well to retain that core.

I think adding Walker was a very nice move that will take a lot of pressure off Petrie to play excessive minutes and gives us another experienced, hard-nosed guy we can rely on.

Losing Wilson hurts our backcourt speed and penetration quite a lot, but it might not matter too much. Creek showed last season that he has become much better at attacking the basket. If McNeail and Ere's shooting can spread the floor better than we did last season, things might really open up inside for Mitch and DJ.

For me, the question marks over defence and toughness in the paint remain with this team, but it certainly looks like a solid roster to me.

Just don't understand what going on here with our club .
Just think if anyone bought a team you would be just pumping out information and positive vibes madly .
It was hard enough to to remain viable with crowds getting , so if drop even more then dont see how get head above water.
We were all hoping with obviously cheap 1 st option we were getting like other clubs a premium import , but then find out weeks ago it almost certainly a over the hill Ere and here weeks on and most rosters filled we still don't know .

Adelaide have a great core of proven Australian players in Johnson, Petrie, Gibson, Walker, Teys and Creek. I think most teams would be happy to have players of their caliber amongst their group.

McNeil hasn't played a game yet and there is still one import to come so its hard to pass judgement on that basis.

They will certainly be competitive.

I take it you are not applying for the position Kobe? Sorry dude, not attacking you or anything, was just funny three spelling errors in one sentence about people with a concept of the English language.
