2 year deal. Joins Mitch Norton as only contracted Crocs players for this season.
Think you'll find another Taipan has signed with them...
Mitch Young? Wow. Did they use their marquee spot for him? Huge signing.
Poor Crocs. They are gonna suck hard this season.

Well it's hard to tell, considering they only have two players signed so far.
Having said that, I have zero faith in Dennis as a coach, so I'm going to be erring on the side of "wooden spoon contention".

Losing Blanchfield is massive though. I think he was poised to have an MVP-contention calibre season.

Great signing imo, would be taking holmes minutes I imagine and taking some pressure off Conklin (assuming he re-signs).

Was fairly obvious Fearne saw no future for him in Cairns by the end of the season. I just hope the rumours of Wortho going to Cairns aren't true.

Crocs have another three already signed but are releasing in time like a drip feed to keep intrest up, silly if you ask me. As for wooden spoon I doubt it probably not top 4 material but got more heart and soul than some of the bigger clubs, just look at united last year ha. Adelaide for wooden spoon.

Sorry but I can't see Blanchfield putting up Ced Jackson numbers on a consistent basis.

Fortunately, you don't need to put up those numbers to be MVP.
Mick, we'll swap you Gleeson to have Dennis back at Perth.
Deal?

Making room for Jerome hill I wonder, would be nice to have the local lad back.
Crocs are going to be horrible. No Blanchfield, no Conklin, many of the dud rotation back for next year. At least they'll move back to the Swamp though...not that many will show up to watch the train wreck.
Gotta feel for the Crocs losing Conklin & Blanchfield and possibly Gladness too.

Gladness and Conklin are no big losses. Easily replaceable. Blanchfield is not replaceable.
It's not often you'd say that losing the league MVP is no big deal but on this occasion I have to agree.
