Been told that Adrien hasn't signed with the 36er's!

I guess this is another pipe dream...how is the Jawai signing going?

Shouldve signed him a few years ago when he couldnt crack into the Tigers' line-up because of Anstey and DJ being there. Had some real promise then. But he's definitely not the same player.. only averaging 11 and 6 at 38% in the Big V. His numbers were literally double that two years ago

John, I had a look at his numbers and wondered why they were so deflated from previous season. I worked out the reason is because Cameron Tragardh is there and he is getting about 24 and 12 which is why Sturt's numbers are deflated. Either way I think we can get a better back up center then Sturt

Greg Vanderjagt would be a decent back up. Currently getting 16 and 10. He has been very consistent over the seasons

Tragardh does take away some of Sturt's numbers but two years ago (I made up that his numbers were double but they actually were, he averaged 24 and 12 with the Tigers that year), he was playing with Corletto who had to get his points, Matty O'Hea and DJ, who averaged 20+ himself that year

Agree that Vanderjagt would be a better option for now

Good point about Sturt performing good when DJ was there also. Looks like his game is dropping off

Sturt is still a huge X-Factor as he is 6'10 and runs the floor and can play from the 3 to 5 in the NBL & guard the perimeter!

If he is looking to head back to UK or Euro he is probably using the Big V season like a pre-season to Europe so maybe it’s his number that aren’t important but just keeping his touch and a solid fitness base.


I think he’d be a good signing but I’d sort the rest of my roster out first and if we need a cheap local to fill that 3 or 4 spot that is an X-factor you might go and get him, but I’d be waiting until mid-August to make the decision as no point signing him if we get imports who are playing the same sort of position.

A tenth man at best in the NBL. His numbers in Britain were about the same as Michael Kingma's!!

Invited to play for British National Team.
Invited to NBA Euro Camp
I believe.
Did he want to talk about the Adelaide 36ers ?

They won 1 game from 33 and stats not that good either from what I have heard. Was invited to train in camp with the British national team and attended an NBA Euro camp but looks like nothing came of it.

Been disappointing this year in Big V, for a 7 footer his rebounds and shooting percentage is way too low.
Needs more production if any team will be attracted to his game.

In saying all of the above would his numbers in the NBL be any worse than Ater Majok??

I think not!!

And from memory Adrian has got hops! so as they do in the NBA why not take a punt on him! Can't be any warse than what we get from Holmes plus if he develops in 2 years we might have unearthed a player!

Haven't posted for so long, forgot how to do it. Craing Winder, could have got him for less than $60K? That's not much more than the Dole. What incentive is there to get out of bed in the morning.

I'd take 60k per season to practise basketball, work out, travel the country and maybe play 5 minutes per week.
Beats my 40 hour week for 12 months for similar pay.

Got word they are strogly looking at Sturt for a D spot or roster spot and have invited him to preseason.

He's had to tell his Big V club he'll be leaving 2 weeks before finals start to begin the preseason with 36er's.
