Bairstow has trimmed his list to
Adelaide, Cairns, Illawarra,Melbourne,Perth,SEM, Sydney and NZ.

Off the top of my head I think this might be who is left of the local players that were on rosters last season:

Adam Doyle
Angus Brandt (Europe)
Clint Steindl
Tom Jervis
Nathan Jawai
Rob Loe
Lucas Walker
Kuany Kuany
Dexter Kernich-Drew
Mitch Young
Cameron Bairstow
Deng Deng
Kyle Adnam
Dane Pineau
Deng Acouth
David Andersen
Kevin White
David Barlow
Alex Pledger
Craig Moller
Peter Hooley
Majok Majok

Of that list, the guys to chase IMO would be:

Clint Steindl
Tom Jervis
Mitch Young
Cameron Bairstow
Alex Pledger

Value for money guys:
Craig Moller
Peter Hooley
Rob Loe
David Barlow

Guys worth a risk:
Angus Brandt (Europe)
Kuany Kuany
Dexter Kernich-Drew
Deng Deng
Dane Pineau
Deng Acouth


Thanks for your contribution:
Majok Majok
Kyle Adnam
Nathan Jawai
Lucas Walker
David Andersen
Kevin White
Adam Doyle

Are you nuts? Jawai had a great season.

NB: Hasn't Pledge and Barlowe been re-signed by MU?

Still a LOT to happen IMHO. Most of those guys will end up somewhere.
Loe is probably done unless NZ wants him back.

Wouldn't mind seeing Moller back in Perth, but otherwise I'd be happy if we re-sign Steindl & Jervis.

I wonder how 36ers can salvage their roster to be competitive next year?

It's not ideal losing Randle, Creek and Sobey in successive years.

IMO signing Wiley and Moore leaves Adelaide a little bit screwed.

C Bairstow/Froling
F Johnson/Wiley
F Drmic/??
G Moore/Teys
G Tremble/??

One has to question the logic behind putting Mitch Young as a must have then have Barlow as a value guy, Brandt as a risk and Jawaii as a thanks for participating.

Losing Childress was a big loss too.

We cannot afford to have 2 mediocre imports this season. We need Trimble and Long level imports just to keep up with the top teams.

Dazz, I don't think Barlow & Pledger have re-signed yet it's expected though.

Lovebroker, By we do you mean the 36ers? We've already signed two of our three imports in Wiley & Moore. Only room left for one more.

Steindl signed for 2 more seasons today with Perth.

Bairstow probably the last big name left. Wonder where he goes

Zodiac....yes I know and it's very lamentable we kept Moore.

I guess we should know not to doubt Wright but so far I don't see much excitement filling the new stadium let alone winning.

LOL.

Pineau before:

Majok Majok
Kyle Adnam
Nathan Jawai
Lucas Walker
David Andersen

He's name's not Jack Off without reason!

I like Mitch Young's game as you know he will give effort every play and if he gets his body right (hasn't seen the same since his bout of Glandular fever a couple of seasons back) then if Jervis leaves Perth for family reasons then I wouldn't mind him as a backup.

Would Perth be interested in Jawai again ?

I don't understand the hate for Adnam, I mean I know that he sucks but I'd take him over Peter Hooley every day of the week but yet nobody bags Hooley and his pathetic foul shooting.

"some people are stupid" there are 9 posts on this thread from Anons... You are posting as an Anon, should we just assume every 'anonymous' post is you? FFS.

Ok, not posting as an anon now, this is a weak ass thread, happy now!

Other than Madgen do any other Europe based players look like coming back?

Johnson, frolling. Wiley, bairstow. Drmic, mcviegh Moore, teys Trimble (import), bruce. And then guy out if college for 11th spot. Not a too bad lineup.

Turner is only 29 so has time ahead of him so the question is would you want him as a backup big or go with go with Aussies live Jervis or Mitch Young.

That's the big IF isn't it anonymous? IF the Sixers manage to sign both Bairstow AND Trimble, then they will probably be playoff material. Even then, there's some big question marks about how they defend at the 3. We saw last season that Drmic, Moore, Teys, McVeigh were all over-matched trying to guard big wings. Hence why Deleon was dumped and Conger signed. Only real hope there is that Wiley plays the three and suddenly discovers how to play defence!

Was a problem last year and conger didn't seem to fix the problem. Trimble or similar pg is a must. Barstow who knows, but another year with frolling, a cheaper pf won't be a problem. I have faith in McVeigh to step up.

I actually like the idea of Barlow on the Sixers as an experienced utility guy who can set a good example for his team-mates. But I think he'd want too much money to leave Melbourne at this late stage of his career.

I also like Moller's hustle and think he'd be a nice spark-plug off the bench, but for me he hasn't shown a consistent enough outside shot to start at the three, nor has he shown he can rebound well enough to start alongside DJ at the 4. In a perfect world, you sign him as a cheap energy guy instead of Wiley and keep that extra import slot for a different skill-set. But too late now!

I also like the way McVeigh came on late in the season and I think he has already shown a higher skill level than Moller. I could see McVeigh being a Wagstaff level player, or if the Sixers get REALLY lucky, maybe he turns into a Mark Worthington type down the road. So there's probably not really a good fit for Moller on the Sixers with Wiley and McVeigh there.

"Would Perth be interested in Jawai again ?"

Jawai would add value anywhere, and yes, a combination of Jawai and Jervis would work. (Keeping that 3rd import slot available)

But the question is "would Jawai be interested in Perth again?" and I think the answer is no.
He went home for less than he was offered to renew in Perth, and his value has dropped further. Plus Cairns seems to have been good for him, he looked physically better than he has for a while. And whilst it is isolated, its not as bad as Perth. Perth still has the longest flights, and they don't don't agree with his back and leg issues.

Besides, a couple more years, and he can retire as a local legend.

Surely Adnam will get a gig somewhere - he had a decent season. Not sure if Hawks would have room for him though?

Adnam heading further north perhaps?

Kendall Stephens is his father Everett Stephens?

DJ Mitchell? Son of the Gold Coast Roller that put his arm through a glass window in frustration @ the Snake Pit? I can't recall his name but played with Andrew LeFleur.

Tad Dufelmeier JR, hope he is not as agro as his Father (who has a great 3pt shooter).

Kendall Stephens son of Everette is the pick of those listed played in Europe last year.

Teams should be chasing Kendall Stephens he's a beast from 3

I'd think Adnam a chance back in Sydney now with Wilson kicking footballs.

Hawks owner would like us to believe Melo to the Hawks!

Kev to the Kings + another Sydney local junior.

Adnam to Cairns, Phoenix and Sydney apparently.

Yes Kendall Stephens is eligible as an Aussie.

Lol ^ give us names you can remain "anonymous". Or are you just jibber jabbering/trolling???

Perth taking a very interesting path.
Rumour is they have lined up another Centre, not an import, and it will shock everybody and not in a good way. I don't quite believe it myself.
But no its not Jawai.

Nah wouldn't be Reader he is 46 or 47 now maybe Rogers who is only 45!
Familiar face to replace Hire hope it's not DKD.
As for the import they're hoping for let me guess Jaron Johnson again lol.

And they are Praying for the return of a friendly face to fill that 2nd import slot.

1 Trimble 2 Prather 3 LeBron James

What happened to Khazzouh?

I thought #3 was Carmelo Anthony?

Illawarra are trash.
