Alex Pledger is signed.

There are already rumours that Creek, Tragardh & Bruce will all be here.

Could we see something like this?

Johnson / Burston
Tragardh / Ballinger
Weigh / Bose
Creek / Ng
Bruce / Crosswell

Just an example, no idea on points cap and realise most people would despise that line up.

Can you make a line up from the free agents above that you think could work, based on who we have already signed as well?

Trying to be realistic

Johnson/Trueman
Trigger/Ballinger
Weigh/Ng
Creek/Dillon
Bruce/Crosswell

I know Ng isn't a SF but I would start Creek at SG over Ng or Dillon

Safe to say you can take Ballinger off any 36ers team scenario.

He will turn up at Kings or Tigers despite not being able to prove he can play right now

I dont think you need imports as such.....wins and success will bring the fans through the doors regardless of who is on the roster.

Imports bring flare and excitement which in turns brings the crowds as much if not more than wins.

Tragardh is not coming here.

The crowds this year were pretty good I would have thought for a wooden spooner team. Up there with the highest in the league on average.

I think the offseason tedium on this site has set in early this year.

Why does Isaac think he knows more than anyone else here?

^^^^^^ how to spot a newb

Thanks Isaac - I was getting worried about that.

Remember that the Captain has to start.
Things are tough out there.
Weigh comes out late , but leaves early
to make up for it.
Walks around , looks at the bike , looks at the massage table , but he walks away.
Waste of space.
Burston played here , but never gotta phone call.
Weigh lovers don't like Bruce.

Makes a strong man lose his mind.

The thing that stands out for me on that list is the lack of starter quality guards. Plenty of bigs who could fill an import equivalent role, but guards really aren't strong.
Bruce, Dillon, Martin and Bose are probably the best guards there and you probably wouldn't want to hand your most important spot on your roster to either of them.
Forward/Centre wise, you could happily give import money and minutes to Crosswhite or Khazzouh. Then depending on your other players, Ballinger, Nevill or Tragardh could fill a strong starting 5 position too. Pledger or Davidson could back up your main big too in a Will Hudson type import role.
I wouldn't be too unhappy with a 1 import line up with a PG import, but I think you need to have a guard import. This would change if the likes of Gibson, Martin, Markovic, Newley etc. became available of course.

Anon, it's what I was told, but could be wrong.

People can compare Tragardh to Ballinger, but Ballinger has been a strong three point shooter in the past while Tragardh doesn't even attempt them. Maybe DJ can keep developing some range and compensate.

Like tiger fans have said before please send him to Melbourne.Adam has been described as a family man something the tigers are trying to build,as a family warm club his history with the Gong says the same very respected by all.So if the 36ers are showing no love the tigers love you,go with the love.

Imports will always be needed because there is not enough talent in Australia to go around all the teams. If Adelaide had first choice of all the players it needed from Skip's list, then we wouldn't need imports. Realistically, we are not going to get too many of the best from that list.

All reports are anon is that he is getting as good ad he gives. Two way street.
