bye bye Salary CAP.

Just have a look at Sydney Kings and the Brisbane Bullets and it simply proves there was no salary cap. Also just have a look at the 2 club now and this is what happens to those clubs who take no financial responsibility with the salary cap.

 

[George 08]

what's the point system meant to be at? what about melbourne, they would be pushing it wouldn't they? some of those players on souths roster aren't signed yet are they?

 

[rotto]

Triangle is a system offense with some motion principles. In the Bull's triangle offense there something like 40 different options defined by ball movement and how the defense reacts to that.

Motion offenses = the player movement defines the ball movement
System offenses = the ball movement defines the player movement

All offenses should have good spacing and timing and read the defense.

Anyway, Devries long distance shooting would help the wildcats spread the defense and allow the big three more one on ones.

Exactly right. If South aren't paying 3x the cap, I'd be staggered.

It's good for the league to have two competitive teams in Melbourne. But looking at that roster makes me feel violently ill. Blatant cheating.

Ah well, Brisbane went in that direction, they got their dose of karma, as did Cairns, and I'd like to think their injuries last year, were down to karma as well

I'll be hoping South go the same way

Hinson to the Cats? Good signing. I'm a fan.

We've already received our karma... having Heal coach us the previous 2 years is worse than anything that could happen this season. The Dragons fans deserve success after all the crap we have put up with.

2 year with Shane Heal in your 3 year history – isn’t a lot of crap.

This was quite funny.

 

[Brad Goodman]

Shane Heal is a cancer, so its not all that great either.

 

[tandino]

also how did sydney stay under the cap?

Because they were not paying their players.

 

[pro_punter]

Poor old Jason Smith failed his medical (needs a shoulder operation) with the South Dragons, so he is now a free agent.

Source?

 

[pro_punter]

Source?

I heard his interview on Fox Sports News today, so might be on there website, not sure though.

 

[High Ryder]

Fair enough then... Gives us room to chase Kendall or someone of that ilk.

The ____en stupidest thing ive ever heard. Wait till he has the operation and then play him ya gooses. If Smith doesnt find a team then the comp is officially dead

i reckon the wildcats could chase him.

I guess no Ebi Ere then.

 

[wotdoiput]

The Dragons are under the salary/points cap how??

 

[Brad Goodman]

Maybe they're hoping that the system will be re-aligned with two less teams in the league.

 

[High Ryder]

I guess no Ebi Ere then.

Why is that?

 

[eathb]

The Dragons are under the salary/points cap how??

they're not.

they're WAAAAAAAAAAY over, probably more than the Bullets and Kings were.

we need Hodge if we were to contend now.

 

[DoubleA]

Dave Thomas flees the Tigers den and heads north to join Cairns.

Interesting....very dissapointing as a Tigers fan because I really felt DT was a "tiger" and it will be hard to see him in a different uniform, and it just looked like every season he just got better.

Real shame
