Are the Sixers back in town??

[LaughingKookaburra]

Recruits galore,new coach.....If they sign Julius Hodge like they claim they are doing it could be a big up and coming season for the Sixers.....

[Thiele]

Nice that we have Luke Schenscher will had hight http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/stor ... 71,00.html

[Dutchy]

Hodge is a key, if they get him they will finish Top 2, if not I still expect them to be around top 4 with Melbourne, Perth and maybe the Dragons.....

Looking at his performaces in the D-League I reckon he will get another shot at the Show, therefore we wont see him -

Pity we couldnt hold onto Ng

[GWW]

Is Ng a better prospect than Hill? The team would only be able to have one or the other wouldn't they??

[Wedgie]

If they get Hodge and a bit of luck they'll go bloody close.
I doubt they'll get Hodge back though, he's too good.
Ng should get together with Ryswyk from North and play a game of Wheel of Fortune.
I'd like to buy a vowell thanks.

Luke Schenscher, my concern is he is coming back from injury, I was excited when we recruited PAUL Rogers few seasons back however we could not grt him on the pine

Lets hope Luke's injuries are behind him

Hill is still developing, and will be a bench player....Ng would have been starting 5

[LaughingKookaburra]

Dont forget jacob holmes.....big inclusion.Is he still in the boomers squad?? Does anyone know how B. Newly is going over in the USA?

[Dutchy]

Yeah good pont about Holmes....Newley is in Europe

[brod]

Good to see positive action from the Sixers, even if it doesnt result in Hodges back in Adelaide

Brad Hill could be a terrific player, he and Holmes were my two favourite players so great to have them back.

[brod]

The 36ers continue to go the in the right direction for the upcoming season, having signed former Boomer Aaron Bruce, who has finished his four year stint at Baylor University in the US. Just need to now make the right call on the final import spot and we are looking like a quality side.

[Thiele]

Adelaide has secured the signuture of Temple University Star Mark Tyndale http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/stor ... 28,00.html

[NO-MERCY]

I'm glad they got rid of the old school ( Smyth ) & Are now up to date with the new school.

[Swooper16]

Think i might return to the Powerhouse (or whatever its now called) for the first time in many a season. If this new import is the business then the sixers should be right amongst it. Still worried that Schensher may not be up to the standard we're expecting.

Also with less teams it means the overall standard of basketball should be much higher. Would have preferred that it was at the expense of some of the newer teams rather then the traditional franchises but still i think the 2008-09 season will be the NBL's best since its glory years of the mid 90's

[GWW]

Hopefully we'll hear soon confirmation of the new import.

he is confirmed as a starter for the season. but first must get here via Miami for a week as they are short of players for training due to injuries. Was going to sit out the pre season games v Melbourne

[GWW]

Judging by the report in the paper today, the Sixers had a reasonable hit out in a trial game, with the NZ import apparently being the standout, and Schenscher contributing well as well. They just lost, but had a few players out, including their new American import.

We'll find out tonight i guess if the sixers are "back in town". We should beat townsville at home but with a new team it might take a few weeks to get going...
