NEW PLAYER ADDED

Import Guard Gary Ervin is added to the Free Agent List.

He is restricted until 11am tomorrow.

You may bid for in the meanwhile by announcing who you intend to delist as well.

Please remember you are only allowed 2 imports on your team.

I will bid for Gary Ervin. If successful I will delist Kevin Braswell.

This weeks team...

STARTERS
C Ian Crosswhite
C/F Daniel Johnson (C)
F Jacob Holmes
G CJ Massingale*
G Aaron Bruce

bench
F/G Mitch Creek
F David Gruber
G Kevin Braswell*

DNPs
G Nathan Crosswell
G Chris Cedar

Bid Ervin. Release Hurdle.

Well I can only assume Lockie will pick up Ervin and as xztatik is above me on waiver I will not bother to bid.

Seeing as no-one wants my number 1 waiver pick I am going to use it to welcome back Gary Ervin. Unfortunately for Corey Webster, who was my final pick, is going to have to make way for Gary.

Having picked up Gary gives me 3 stars at the guard position being Gary Ervin, Damian Martin and Adam Gibson. However, this leaves me a little short in the Centre/Forward position. Therefore, feel free to make trade offers for any one of these 3 guards. Please note, your trade offer needs to include either a gun forward or gun centre/forward position.

Assuming a trade is not made, my team for this week will be:

Starters:
C - Matthew Burston
F - Stephen Weigh
F - Mika Vukona
G - Adam Gibson (capt)
G - Damian Martin

Bench
Dusty Rychart
Gary Ervin
Graeme Dann

DNP
Auryn MacMillan
Nate Tomlinson

The Canberra Choke in the first round.

C: Trigger Tragardh
C/F: Seth Scott
F: Oscar Forman
G: CJ Bruton
G: Benny Magden

Bench
G: Everand Bartlett
F: Jason Forte
F/G: Leon Henry
F: Anthony Petrie
G: Luke Martin

I'll use the number 2 waiver, and put in a bid for Ervin.

If the bid is successful I will drop Luke Martin and put in Ervin along with dropping Jason Forte and selecting Matt Andronicos of the FA list.

Looks like Lockie has locked up Ervin.

Looking forward to moving up to the number 1 slot and seeing what falls out in the future.

My team stays pat and selects Seth Scott as the captain:

C: Trigger Tragardh
C/F: Seth Scott (c)
F: Oscar Forman
G: CJ Bruton
G: Benny Magden

Bench
G: Everand Bartlett
F/G: Leon Henry
F: Anthony Petrie
G: Luke Martin

DNP:
F: Jason Forte
F/G: Leon Henry

Quick question skip, are we running a vice-captain this year, like in dreamteam???

Listed Leon Henry twice there TR

Nah. No vice captain.

Yeah, I'm still waiting after 5+ years for Isaac to make me an edit button.

Leon Henry is in a suit this week. Confirm DNP.

Revised team:

NEW PLAYER ADDED

Import Forward/Centre Larry Abney is added to the FA list.

He is restricted until 3pm Adelaide time tomorrow.

X - was interested in Balls but it sounds like he is injured again. Ask me again once he is on the court.

Skip - will put in an official bid for Abney. On the off chance I am successful, will drop MacMillan.

Alright I'm thinking of bidding for Abney but it probably wouldn't be worth it unless I offloaded an import for an Aussie first so...

Statman, Hurdle or Edwards for Goulding or Rush?

Aaaand Lockie you're the only other one with less than two imports but I can't really see anything there. Edwards for MacMillan maybe if I get desperate lol?

Will have to pass X. Don't want to waste an import spot on Edwards, even if it is for MacMillan.

X - Bid will only be accepted if you manage to trade out an Import.

Sorry X - I'm happy with 1 import at this stage - I reckon TR might swap one for yiu :)

Yeah that wasn't intended to be a bid. I'll leave Abney if I can't move one of mine first.

Lol oh yeah I forgot TR. Hurdle/Edwards and Norton for Forte and Madgen/Petrie?

Thought I better list out my team, scary that I had to scroll back through the draft thread and work out who I had actually picked.....

Ill move them into position later in the week after Ive finalised a fitness test with a couple of players.

In the mean time Im open to trade discussions :)

C/F Matt Knight
G/F Tom Abercrombie
F Alex Loughton
G Corin Henry
G Chris Goulding
F Liam Rush
C/F Tom Garlep
C/F Jeremiah Trueman
F Dan Jackson
F Greg Hire

I'll pass X. I feel that Magden and Petrie will both have good years.

Lockie, my best mate :D since it looks like you will be getting Abney too and dropping McMillan anyway, do you want to trade him to me first for Norton? Happy to give him right back on the off chance someone outbids you before 3.

Sorry X. Didn't see your post till just now.

I assume I was successful with my pick of Abney. Therefore I will drop Dann to the "DNP" and Abney to the bench.

All yours Lockie and Done. Mac Milan is restricted until 3pm tomorrow.

You're not my best mate anymore Lockie.

I am shattered to hear that X.

After a long weekend of negotiations on the Gold Coast I am pleased to announce that Statmans Hackers BC has come to agreement with the owners and administrators of the Gold Coast Blaze to take on the Blaze name for the upcomings season

Wow! At least now you have a use for all those jerseys you have Statman!

As a new license however, I am afraid we may have to bump you down to League Two instead.

HA - Actually I couldnt get their licence as the NBL reclaimed the Blaze one so I have just taken on their name and got the marketing/membership data base - Unfortunately that wasnt really useful as I already knew where I live....

Hopefully this appeases the comissioner and I can stay up ion the top league, at least for this season :)

release Norton sign MacMillan please

Any half time banter?

In hind sight I should have started Boucher over Tovey.

I only have Schenscher for the second half as a starter not sure if we have done enough in the first to hold on to the lead!

Dammit! I thought Hinder was looking a bit gimpy, so I left him in civvies this week and look what he does in the 4th quarter tonight! 44 points total - probably 30 of them in the last five mins!

Oh well, at least I know he's still got some juice left!

Whoever had Tragardh better of had him as captain!

Happy with Cam Gliddon but I should've played him over MacMillan in hindsight.

Decent captain choice with 50.

Cedar is a shitbird.

Would be kicking myself for releasing Norton if I didn't know Ervin was on the way.
