BBL BBL Signings 2024/25

[cats_09]

Teams can have a max of 10 players signed beyond this season prior to the start of this upcoming 10-day player movement window

I can't remember which journo mentioned it, but Hobart currently have 8 players contracted with David, Meridith & Owen unsigned - not sure if they'll re-sign two prior to tonight's game, or try to get commitments from them for beyond this season

 

[cats_09]

And Owen has re-signed with Hobart - how many days into this player movement period before we hear that David is heading to the Stars

 

[Redline]

Add Mitch Owen and Riley Meredith to that.

Still nothing on Tim David though ...

Sounds like he will leave. Webster to go to the Hurricanes

 

[cats_09]

Tom Morris will some more signing news

A few days ago it was Morris who was suggesting Agar could be on the move to Vic with the Gades interested - so not sure if this means he's now signed or if it'll be a trade for a contracted player

In what universe would Dorf not be in the best 10 players?

Staggering if they let him go.

 

[Cleavy]

if you were rebuilding a team, you'd have a crack at Kerr, based on those free agents

Staggering if they let him go.

The following is from an article on the 16th - it has Agar also out-of-contract, but with him not mentioned above it seems to indicate he's re-signed

The Scorchers – the most successful BBL club since the competition’s launch - have several experienced players out-of-contract, including Behrendorff’s long-time seam ally Andrew Tye and spinning all-rounder Ashton Agar.

The trio have been key plans of Perth’s success over the past decade but with three wins from nine matches this season it’s believed the club’s hierarchy is keen to regenerate, leaving all three players potentially on the outer.

Would prefer Dorf and Marsh ahead of Kelly. But not sure who else you push out of the 10.

Like what I saw of Beardman last night.

Yep
Agar has signed on for another 3 years.

Tye can go.

So do we keep signing players like Inglis who hardly play at all?

Dorf would be the number 1 target for most clubs I would've thought.

I doubt Kelly is one of those contracted players.

Edit** Kelly is contracted.
FMD.

So who are the 10 for Hobart

Wade and Jordan had multi year deals. Ellis, Meredith, Owen & McDermott have re-signed. Webster coming back. The others are going to be ugly compared to David being OOC aren't they.

Kerr, Dorff, Sangha and Hobson probably the best of those. Like the look of Fanning as well.

Chaudhary is a good player to have tied down for a couple of years. Not so sure about Carlisle on a multi year deal....

Who opens for the Stars next year if they manage to sign these two?

 

[eddiesmith]

Mitch Marsh to the Stars? God no, that would be the final death knell of the franchise.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Who opens for the Stars next year if they manage to sign these two?

You don’t change a winning formula. You’d be silly not to stick with Sam Harper and Tom Rogers… I’d still love to see Maxwell open.

Marsh would be a massive get considering his test days are done. He’s quality at BBL level.

 

[Cudi]

Mitch Marsh to the Stars? God no, that would be the final death knell of the franchise.

He'd be a good Webster replacement

 

[Cudi]

Who opens for the Stars next year if they manage to sign these two?

The obvious one is Stoinis to open but Cartwright did a few years ago and thought did a decent job.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

In what universe would Dorf not be in the best 10 players?

Staggering if they let him go.

I'd assume it's $$$ they have re signed turner for 4 years plus they have a lot of players on that roster including Connelly that will want upgrades. They are probably just looking at their cap balance

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Who opens for the Stars next year if they manage to sign these two?

You would assume Marsh opens (much as that would make me puke) unless they push Cartwright up like they did years ago. But Cartwright stoinis and Maxwell and David are all better finishers. Whoever is their keeper (ie whoever they replace Harper with) probably has to open as there isn't room for them anywhere else.
It's also a lot of all rounders in one team so squad balance would be interesting.

Rogers looks a likely option - from the above article, here's the Stars contract situation

Melbourne Stars list for BBL|15: Scott Boland (contracted until BBL|15), Hilton Cartwright (BBL|15), Tom Curran (BBL|15), Glenn Maxwell (BBL|15), Hamish McKenzie (BBL|15), Tom Rogers (BBL|16), Peter Siddle (BBL|15), Marcus Stoinis (BBL|16)

Out of contract: Brody Couch, Sam Harper, Campbell Kellaway, Jon Merlo, Joel Paris, Mark Steketee, Doug Warren, Beau Webster

Imagine dedicating one of 10 spots to Peter Siddle... Madness. It's 2025.

 

[cats_09]

Imagine dedicating one of 10 spots to Peter Siddle... Madness. It's 2025.

Which one is crazier:

• Siddle re-signed on a 1 year deal, or
• Tom Rogers (Stars) still having 2 years left on his deal

 

[Saints4ever]

Imagine dedicating one of 10 spots to Peter Siddle... Madness. It's 2025.

I don’t mind it he seems to have found an extra bit of zip and has bowled pretty well this tournament
