Cannot disagree with the opinios above, all the reasoning is good.
I just want to add some quedos for Lemanis.
New franchise 3 years ago. 1st year could be called a "Kelly 2018/19 season." That, in spite of being propped up by NBL (LK). Had some budget and a fair bit of (other?)help, I'm sure. Started bottom and maintained that throughout the season.
2nd season, no better. Still retained the wooden one.
In his 3rd season, Brings his team to all-season threat to every team and title contender.
Gleeson, is a strange case for me. Yes! His team suffered several and key injuries and some happened at the same time (up tp 3 out at once).
From memory, their slide started AFTER that. When they were healthy, again.
So they win some tough games WITH key injuries and lose with a full roster. Ok, you have to re-integrate players into rotations etc, but, in reality, they are sill struggling to be the team they were, early this season, and what they have always been. Gleeson has a great record and has shown his calibre. But for me, not this year. Fact is, I thought that he was showing some staleness throughout.
Bevo- tick. Lost his best locals, recruiting questionable but proving ok within budget constraints. Has developed his players well, especially the youngsters, and don't we all love that? However, I honestly don't expect anything less from him.
Vickerman - tick. He is also the riegning champ and we all know about back-to-back campaigns.
Gaze - In charge of Porsche and took it all the way to VW.
Wright - Don't think he achieved what he wanted with his team, this season. I don't mean a championship. Every one wants that.
I mean either his team did not follow his directions or his directions were the wrong ones????
This year, he is contending with Lemanis & Bevo for 4th spot, both on the way up (from past seasons) and Joey has stagnated around middle of table, even reached the GF from there Last season. A repeat (making the GF) this year may change my mind.
Braswell - Rookie. Say no more
Kelly - Rookie. Say no more
Nothing more to say (for now!).
