It was the best kept secret.

I wonder why a guy like Johnson actually plays basketball in the off season? How much would he be earning for his season with Forestville?

You'd think he'd want to rest up and take it easy for a while.

Great signing by the 36ers though.

Deng has serious potential. Creek and DJ are stars at the top of their game. Sobey and Doyle too- great core of consistent Australians.

Get 3 decent imports and they'll be right in the mix again.

Well done 36ers.

Good move by 6ers would of been a great pick up for every other club.

Well done indeed. Its a good sign there is solid financials behind the team & commitment to a championship strategy. If Trice is available after SL, should aggressively approach him IMO. Someone of his calibre fits extremely well with what they want to run.

Australian Dollars

Assuming we're losing Creek to overseas, this was a very important re-signing. 3 years is a good length too.

Good for Adelaide , unless Creek gets a better offer they will retain their core.

Great Day, Daniel has been a great player . I am very pleased it a 3 deal . Well done to Management .

Great to see the loyalty.

Good news for the organisation.

Daniel fits the team's stategy and club culture perfectly, great to have him for another 3 years.

Now to keep the others.

^ school holidays or wagging ? -- possibly suspended - that would support the continued trolling ;)

Anon...He leads by exampleon the court, plays fair, is not dirty by any stretch, doesn't talk trash, doesn't get into Social Media arguments to give the opposition ammo, has all his demerit points.

What more can you ask?

Sorry, not possible, I heard from a reliable anonymous source on these boards that he was teaming up with Gliddon and Kay in Perth.

i thought he was perth bound? lol

Interesting convo about the $$$, maybe we'll find out when they release the salaries hahaha...

I think out of loyalty and wanting to put together a roster than can go one step further it would have been in the area of 3yrs/550k

What awesome futurists we are here on hoops.

Predictions of DJ to Perth- wrong.

Salary range of $180 - $ 400 k pa.

My 2 cents: most Well-performed Australian players will stay put for only modest increase in remuneration. Only greatly improved players will want to move for more $. Only Sydney, Brisbane and Perth will pursue wholesale Australian roster changes. Some veterans will either have to take pay cuts or move to extend their careers.

Imports? A whole different story. Some teams will spend big to try to match Randle, Ware, Cotton, Felix, Prather. Others might just try for more modest recruiting to begin the season, and upgrade mid season as the last 2 championship teams did with Ware and Felix (would MU have started to click without his recruitment?)

What a load of crap about him wanting a new home.

It didn't feel like that long ago that 36ers fans were the biggest critics of DJ now you're all pushing each other out of the way to kiss his arse next...

Big get for 36ers though and well done to him

It doesn't seem that long ago that he got shafted out of the league MVP they gave to Brian Conklin.

He has done a great job recovering his form since they opened up and drained his chest because of severe pneumonia a few years ago too.

If it makes you happy.

Do you have a valid case for Conklin not deserving the MVP?

Considering the 2017/18 salary soft cap was somewhere around the $1.2 million dollar range,$400,000 is ridiculous.

$500,000 over 3 year would sound right.

DJ was the best player in the league that year IMO so I believe he should have won. You don't have to agree with my opinion.

You know what they say about opinions. They're like arseholes- everybody's got one.

That's your opinion.

You don't have to agree with my opinion.

You know what they say about opinions.

You seem to think very highly of yourself.

I must suck when people have opinions you don't agree with. I hope you can manage.

I don't mind people having a different opinion.

But you said DJ got shafted, like there was no valid case for Conklin winning it.

I gave you a fair opportunity to justify your position.

You came back with 'my boy's better'.

Which is OK I guess, I'd just like to be warned ahead of time when dealing with 'such people'.
