Seifert a good get

 

[Saints4ever]

Finn Allen is a huge signing.

The Scorchers just keep getting stronger

 

[Saints4ever]

As a hurricanes fan I find Chris Jordan to be very hit and miss.

Can be a great death bowler but when he’s off he can really go the distance.

Handy lower order hitter I just never really trust him to consistently perform.

Wish the Strikers would get an elite non spin option in the bowling attack.

He is hit and miss but he will be available all tournament and having a bowler that can hold the bat in the lower order has been problematic for the Hurricanes since Faulkner finished up. I can understand why they have locked him in.

does anyone care about the BBL draft "as a tv spectacle"?

does anyone care about the BBL draft "as a tv spectacle"?

No

I think I tried watching it last year but found it rather boring - rather just see the results

 

[Saints4ever]

does anyone care about the BBL draft "as a tv spectacle"?

That’s a big No

Only way it would be interesting is if every player had to go into the pool and all teams started from scratch.

Now that would be interesting.

From watching the WBBL draft, can see there is a risk of earning less if you a pre-signed. Because they can then just take the player the lowest price bracket

 

[serial_thrilla]

These drafts just don't make sense. Must be salary cap related.

 

[cats_09]

 

[eddiesmith]

Whilst Duckett is a good selection, it’s another signing who’ll be gone by the business end of the season

 

[serial_thrilla]

These BBL drafts are contrived rubbish. It's just an open market for international players with a facade of a draft over the top of it.

 

[Redline]

The Strikers traded Agar for a swap of second round picks but then we used it to pick Ollie Pope as a presigning. Doesn't make sense.

 

[Cleavy]

I don’t understand why these pre-draft signings are part of the draft. Thought the whole point was they were outside of it?
