Adam is a big whose skill set is more about face up triple threat rather than back to the basket post stuff.

Always seemed more comfortable in Phil Symth's system, and seemingly more suited to the traditional Tigers Drake shuffle offence, but who would really go to the Tigers these days? Can only think it must be a good offer.

name change now required for me, i might just have to be Ballin Fan.

Coast to Coast. Yep that logo is VERY bad

That Melbourne Tigers logo is horrible. Really bad. The club goes from very bad to worse!

Maybe given Gleeson's contract fiasco they saved some dollar by getting the kids at North Melbourne PS to design their logo?

Keep the current one, the new one is an absolute shocker

Oh WOW, that is bad!!!

Ha ha. Very bad to worse is right. Good call LC.

Just a horrible, horrible logo.

Nice that gives us more cash
Let's go SIXERS

Congratulations Adam, you're a true legend and will be sadly missed...come back and kick some ass!!!

yep, for mine the bradbury of 36er mvp's of late
good player on a sub par team

happy to be proven wrong when he eventually plays as a tiger. somehow dont think i will be.

muzz you act as if you know ,that sad fact is YOU make comments you know nothing about just for a FACT balls won an MVP with the hawks the year the made the finals ,that year he was 3rd league MVP and every year since he won club mvp at the 6ers thats years when top players were at the club and every year he was among the top 5 MVP for the league so don't try and sound as if you know because you are just like all those other wanna be Ballinger was is and will always be a champion ask his fans .not nobodies like you .Muzz how many games have you played in the nbl and how many MVP have you won

OK anon /binks

FACT Ballinger would not have been MVP if Hodge had been in the team all year first time around. FACT Ballinger would not have been MVP if Gilchrist didn't get injured or if Maher had stayed healthy. FACT Ballinger didn't win the MVP last season. FACT Ballinger made 1 playoff in 5 years as a 36er and only twice in 4 seasons as a Hawk. FACT if Hodge didn't come into that team they wouldn't have made the playoffs that one time either. FACT All Star 5 first teams is zero.

Ballinger on an individual level has been a solid performer in the NBL. good players do find ways to win games.

The uni-funds-Hodge year was his second time in Adelaide, under Ninnis.

(Mod: Blocked for bad language.)

Ballinger has been an excellent scorer and a very consistent player, but certainly overall has never been amongst the elite players in the comp, despite what the NBL's flawed MVP voting system might suggest. He's the sort of guy who can be really effective in a good system but not good enough to be the main man on a successful team.

If fit he's a very handy pick-up for Melbourne provided they have a system that gets him the ball in the right spots.

The entire Hodge-Fuss thing is a stain on the Sixers bedsheet that the media love to air in the breeze of discontent.

What has happened with the other 3 rumoured signings?

College returnee and 2 re-signings?

Gleeson saga got something to with the delay?
