& hopefully #2 Will be something along the lines of 'with the nearing return of Ando, Booney &/or LaMelo, we have released import Darrington Hobson' for any number of reasons including but not limited to-

Lack of heart & hustle
Poor body language & team buy in
Sulking
Underperformance

I thought by the name of the title he was leaving to join Rakeem Christmas over the holidays. Not that there is anything wrong with that...

Wasn't he only brought in because he's a mate of Ball's? Regardless of why he's gone, he came across a knucklehead and those guys don't normally last in international leagues eg. Jeremy Tyler, Perrin Buford, Glen Rice Jr.

Billy reminded me of Troy "The Boy" McCoy who debuted for Mandurah Magic back in the 90's, come over with a big rap and got quickly shown up for the muppet he was.

Soon Darington Hobson to be let go for medical reasons (re: lack of heart and/or brain).

There's NBL1 level imports better than these jokers.

When he decided his role on the team was to try and take Agent 97 off the dribble from outside the 3 point line, I thought he was "dumber than dumb" and had an inflated opinion of his ability. Don't call us we will NOT CALL YOU.
Merry Christmas
