36ers & Lightning to merge?
THE 36ers and Lightning are deep into negotiations about forming one national basketball league entity and sharing resources.
The revelation comes in the wake of the WNBL releasing its free agents' list and the complete Lightning roster being available for interstate recruiting.
The future of coach Peter Buckle, two years into his three-year contract, is also under a cloud, as is the direction the 36ers now will take, Marty Clarke's three years at the helm at an end.
Lightning owner Vince Marino said he was negotiating with the 36ers and the result of those conversations would influence the direction his women's team would take.

No need for the 36ers to re-sign Gibbo now with Angela at the point ;)
