Have heard murmurings that Prather will find it tough to get his spot back given the performance of Felix.
Any one got any updates?
The way Felix fits in and with the way they are playing I think Prather will have a series of unexpected setbacks to his injury recovery
How lucky are Melb Utd that the injury occurred. Fluke move.
Prather to Sydney, with Blanchfield, Newely there already, now that's a bit of jvg recruiting.
Clearly another fail. Blanchfield can't play. Newley past it. Prather meh.
With the money at their disposal why not recruit studs.
They go to the US every year and come back with nothing.

If Prather is fit to return, can Felix play?
The whole concept of an injury waiver player is to cover the injury, but if he is fit to play then he is the rostered player and therefore should play. Will be interesting to see what happens come season end.
If Prather is fit, why wouldn't he want to showcase to the world that he needs a new job so here I am. I doubt he would sit patiently on the sidelines and watch someone else take his offseason and start of the season accolades. Not to mention if Felix has a good finals campaign, that NBA maybe contract might just get Felix's name pencilled in instead.
FM are you stupid? A team can only have 3 imports. If Prather comes back that is Ware, Boone,Felix/Prather! Do you need help counting

If Majok and Anderson found full fitness I'd be tempted to play Prather, Felix and Ware as the 3 imports. Boone would then be the unlucky one.
Won't happen though.

United signed Felix to replace Prather, but what's stopping them from cutting Prather and signing Felix as their official 3rd import, instead of just an injury replacement import?
It'd obviously be a bad look. But is there any rule that would prevent that?

I still dont get how the MVP Fav prior to his injury isnt a shoe-in.
Cats should totally pick him up.
Bit of a risk, but walker and Brandt to step it up in the backcourt. Get rid of Cooke.
You guys drunk for thinking that melb won't have Prather over Felix. Do you guys watch Felix in the games. Moller plays more than him in majority of the games. Scoring wise he doesn’t hold a candle to Prather. And Prather a better defender on ball
Homicide in the coverage said he was out for the season last night. I think he should go to the bullets and play two guard if Buford comes back.

They were a far better team with Goulding out earlier in the season, too.

Felix isn't getting game time. Doesn't seem happy, always shaking his head. I'd like to see Prather back.
Felix has been a great fit, seems to be getting game time as well, Prather was mentioned as out for season in coverage last time.
