His podcast slip was no slip


Craig and Kuol won’t come cheap

I was a fan of DJ as he did things differently

DJV was on pretty good money and Jenkins with all his NBA experience wouldn't have been cheap, plus we bought out his contract in Romania too.

Looks like Ingles is likely to sign with Melb United.

Given the money he’s earnt he ain’t coming here for an extra $100-200k
Surely it’s Melbourne as has been mentioned in the media

Not much in the way of signings for the first day of free agency today and no one has changed teams yet.

Perth Wildcats have re-signed Elijah Pepper to a 2 year deal.

Brisbane Bullets have re-signed Sam McDaniel to a 2 year deal.

Sydney Kings have re-signed Keli Leaupepe to a 2 year deal.

We would be the last team he’d play for, he cannot stand the 36ers. Stems from his junior days

Bul Kuol officially signed, will be a great fit if he has overcome his injury

Badly needed a defensive player

Not sure he’s the missing piece but will be a good depth player
He won’t be in our starting 5

I think he is more than depth. We don’t need another scorer, we need someone who defends and clears space

I think we do need another scorer though as we can’t keep relying on Bryce
That was so evident in game 1 and 3 of the GF

Also Melbourne United have signed Kiwi big Sam Waardenburg to a 3 year deal. He played for the Cairns Taipans last season and is currently playing in Puerto Rico.
