Blaze sign Melmeth

Coach Joyce said, "Ben is now an experienced, quality big man in this league and will be a vital player to our team's success. He has great versatility to play inside and out. I am really excited to have Ben at the Blaze."

"Being a brand new franchise, there may be a certain expectation that the team will take a while to find its feet, but we are working toward signing a balanced team with youth and experienced players so the Blaze will be ready to prove the theory wrong," said Mr Joyce.

i really like this bloke as a player, and he's a good bloke to boot (i knew him when he was playing with the kings - when i was still a fan)

solid pick-up - make him the skipper


can't really say the same for scott mcgregor - he's a waste of space

Clearly you wern't the kings fan he had a swing at and got suspended for striking....

The guy has played at more clubs than cold chisel....
Once a club finds out what he is like they drop him... or he moves on... dead wood.

Dunno - i reckon he's a decent pickup for a new club... and he is a decent bloke (or was around 10 years back) - i remember having a good chat with him about his "favorite" college coach Rick Majerus... A guy that has time for a drunken prat in a bar can't be half bad... Maybe they are trying to rebuild the '97 Junior Mens WC squad??? (and yes McGregor has fleeced them...)...

I too like Melmeths game. It seems like he's keen on signing with new franchises though. Superstition maybe?
