What is going on with the Wildcats?

"They made an offer to Motum. Its not going to be as big as what he'd get in Europe though."

Nice if true, but yeah not a huge amount of cash to splash on a Motum type player, given what it took to re-sign Cotton, and the need to still sign an import.

Seems I could have been wrong?
For a while now Trev has been saying we would sue the import slot to replace Kay, and I've simply accepted that as given.
But rumour has it we are going with a local PF...

Not sure I buy it though. Who's left?
Could it be we're hoping Reath will become available and would play the PF role??

I meant the announcement, not the player per se, if that makes any sense?
And no, I can't even imagine what that would be.
But so far, apart from retaining Cotton, we're going backwards at every position, and with the league shaping to be very competitive, that's a worry. I'm sure they have it in hand, just anxious to see it take shape.

Well Damn, that's another domino that hasn't fallen our way.
Who are we going to sign as our backup PG?
Hopefully there is an announcement pending, and hopefully its red hot.

Perth spent 2 million on one player. Claiming to have less talent and actually spending the most in the league is dumb

Yeah, fancy spending big on the best payer in the league, where's the logic in that. But for his injury, Cotton would have completed a MVP 3-peat.
Better to spend more money luring somebody who can go MIA in the finals,
Or even more money on somebody that can't play a full season and can't make it through a 5-game GF series.

It's not Wildcats fans that claim we have less talent, its the muppets who year after year write them off, and think their own team's shit doesn't stink.

At the moment, Cotton is most probably the highest paid guy in the league (over 3 years anyway) but we still have to see how we fill the remaining spots, and the calibre of imports signed by other teams.

CHILL man. There are 27 threads each year where HATERS claim that the mighty Wildcats are dead and that Trev can't coach and the league has moved on and they need to sign more players. Check out the board last season - it was full of dopey Cats pessimism. How did the GF end up again? Can someone remind me?

Every year we prove the haters WRONG.

In Trev & Troy we trust. This ball club has the GREATEST culture of any Australian sporting organisation.

Wildcats will be getting Blanchfield and Reath. Two imports to fill the Centre and Power Forward spots.

Had there been big (suitable) targets available, then I imagine Perth would have gone hard. Naturally rumours about players we did go after and why, but hard to say for sure.

Fair bit of cloud with Cotton situation plus needing an Aussie big if Cotton doesn't naturalise.

Could conceivably need an import 4 and 5 if Reath heads back to Europe but Cotton is a local.

NORTON / ???
COTTON (AUSSIE?) / SWAKA
BLANCHFIELD (RUMOR) / STEINDL
IMPORT / WAGSTAFF
REATH (THEY HOPE) / MAJOK

DP - TRAVERS

This is standard practice for the Cats in the last few years, that are never really active early.

Just relax, things sort themselves out if it's a well run club.
