Salt signs with Brisbane

Don't know too much about him, but presumably this means that one of Hodgson or Frolling is moving on?

The source is literally the Bullets.

He's a defensive minded center. 6’11

There's been a lot of talk about this Jack Salt guy in terms of what he could do in the NBL so will be good to see if that hype was truly warranted. Likely spells the end of Froling as they declined to pick up their option on him too.

He keeps injury free, this will be a very good signing, defence quality centres his size don't come along often. Looking forward to see how they continue to recruit this season.

I am keen on Hodgson staying 'cept he's foul-prone and (apparently) Salt is injury-prone. Maybe Hoggey gone too.

If it's true about Salt's defence and Harrison is to back him up there will be constant pressure inside but, any offence?

If Patterson, Law and Johnson all return, and Sobey in the other guard spot the Bullets will have a formidable starting-5.

And a bench of Cadee, Drmic, Krebbs, Wigness and Harrison not to be sneezed-at!
[Pun intended].

1. Sobey/Cadee
2. Law/Wigness
3. Patterson/Krebbs
4. Johnson/Drmic
5. Salt/Harrison

Looks OK to me. Apart from Salt [I have read that he is a big-bodied C and not too quick?], this team is built for speed. [Yeah, I included Patterson. He can get it up the court when it's on. Have you seen some of his full-court passes? They're quick. they are BULLET(s) passes]!

Wonder what James D is thinking about his roster!

Salt won't start

"Hoping to pair with Ben pepper..."

Then they can grab the ball and "push it" up the court..."push it real good"...

Froling heard Salt was coming and immediately thought of dim Sims. Given players leaving Perth, do they try and see if they can get something out of him? Can't see him going to Cairns, surely weight limit with Nate would see the plane struggling to take off.

Lol.

In seriousness, I hope Hodgson sticks around with the Bullets, he'd be the best extended minutes big they have by far. Sounds like he’s on the way out though.

Know little about Salt. Ty’s gone ok but is only playable in small patches. Too slow and got found out once other teams scouted him and planned accordingly. Not a dude you want to pin your future on.

Harry can go wherever. Perth would actually be interesting. The culture and peer pressure may actually force him to put his head down, get in shape and take the game seriously.

Perth have Majok as backup centre.

I'd be intrigued to have Harry with the Wildcats but with Majok there is that an option?

When does Majok get back to full fitness?

Would Harry trust himself and his abilities to work out with Perth in the hopes of securing a contract?

Gleeson would not put up with any crap, would be great for Harry if he got on board, Harry has talent.

Harry Froling just doesn't look like a player that works hard enough, not sure if a new coach or environment can change that. Strange that Sam appears the exact opposite - willing to put in the hard work, get fit and play whatever role his team need.

Don't forget the Froling sisters put in the hard yards too. Harry unfortunately the odd one out.

Gleeson has a history of short leashes with players.

I can see Harry getting the same court time as Rhys Vague last season.

Let's not make this another Cats thread...

What's Salt's role going to be? I've read he's predominately a defensive player? So would be coming off the bench as rim-defending centre? Seems to be a solid lad, without being exceptionally tall for a centre at 208cm

Lemanis seemed to like his tall timbers, but is Duncan going to do the same?
They're already extended Harrison, so now with Salt onboard will he looking for some more mobile guys to play the 4?
Salt seems a strange signing, unless both Froling AND Hodgson already had a foot out the door?
