Will warm the bench with Trist, not sure why they have both.

He's not NBL standard. Has zero offensive talent and is too slow defensively at that level. Works hard for sure and gives you honest effort, but with Trist already there it's a very strange signing.

Most underrated signing this off season!

They didn't really have an identity before this signing.

I expect a top 2 finish now.

Well done SEM!

Love this signing. Brings some more youth into the group at the big mans position in a lean free agents market. Being from Vic helps also.

Because he can stay at his Mum's?

They probably should've made this signing before signing Trist but one of those two is likely to be the 11th man anyway.

Emmanuel Malou would be perfect fit with the Phoenix

He's going to play Netball?

I think Dane has a chance to improve. He's a good rebounder and is solid defensively. He seems to drop his head too much when he makes a mistake so needs to get rid of that.

SEM have clearly decided to go for solid young players off the bench to potentially free up more cash for bigger name starters. Not a bad strategy

Phoenix so far:

Import PG*, Gibson
Madgen, ?
Creek, Moneke
Wesley*, Pineau
Import*, Trist

Looking good if they get two stud imports.
Or go for Bairstow and get an import wing for the bench?

Speaking of imorts, saw a weird comment from Josh Childress replying to SEM on Twitter. Heard he put some money into the team so would think it's a conflict of interest to be playing for them but kind of strange he commented. Unless he was trying to bring attention to himself on social media.

Would go for something like this

Gibbo/Adnam
Madgen/
Creek/
Wesley/Moneke/Trist
Mathiang/Pineau

Would be using Creek as the 3rd import - in case he makes the nba. Would get a young Aussie and a 6th man import to strengthen the bench as the last 2 spots - Gibbo can start on the right team.

He has plenty of improvement in him. Good pick up for SEM.

Vlahov was playing for the Wildcats as a majority owner, and we're concerned about whether someone could play while owning 5-10%?

Unless by "right team" you are referring to the QBL?

Based on what?

So far what we are seeing is a bunch of recycled crap, but hopefully that is a question of timing.

Hopefully as time goes one, we'll see some more young talent , and some gun imports.
