2022 SSN rumoured signings/speculation

Could Dwan be headed to Swifts? The Swifts use their bench pretty regularly and Dwan would offer a great moving circle with Housby?

Confirmed Austin to the vixens! What a fantastic move for her

How good if Tbirds can also sign Wallam then?

Selfishly I am stoked with this move. Austin has always been one of my favourite players so to have her join the Vixens is :heart: Also offsets the loss of Smith for me.

For Austin I think it’s a great move. Austin will be the starting GA and supported by Watson. Both returning from major injuries they can support each other through that process.

I think Austin’s recruitment also squeezed Smith out. Austin can play WA which pushes Watson to C and Moloney to WD. Samason will cover GA in those instances. Also suspect we will see a reasonable amount of Mundy in C allowing Moloney to WD. Also allows them to rest MJ and to develop Samason in GS which will be the long term play for them.

Vixens are coming together nicely. I’m expecting Eddy and MJ but really not sure who the 10th player will be. Dehaney if she stays but otherwise I’m not even sure if they should go for a circle defender or defensive midcourter.

Tomorrow they will announce a resigning.

I’m loving Dwan to TBirds!! Would be awesome if they signed Bassett but I do think spect Potgeiter. Bassett would be an amazing mentor for Horjus and Dwan.

I’m really liking the team Adelaide are building. Definitely my second team. Hope they sign Williams and Orr. Might be too tight to fit Lucy Austin in unfortunately.

I never thought Austin would leave Giants considering her rehab but good on her for making the move. Vixens are a great club and it’s exciting for both them and her that she will be a part of their revival. Very exciting that Letherbarrow will be able to keep her contract at Giants as well.

Wilson is a great signing for T’Birds, she’s been great for them. Their defence end is built around Sterling though, so if they can’t keep her it’s going to be tough.

Dwan vs Horjus for the starting bid would be interesting. Interesting if they’ve both signed for two years as well. They are very similar players, I’m not sure if there’s enough firepower in their circle if Potgieter would be the third shooter. It would make more sense for Dwan to go to Fever and Glasgow to go back to Adelaide. It would be so odd to see Glasgow and Wallam playing out at GA for Fever whilst Horjus/Dwan might be used in GS for T’Birds. If they can secure a more dominant and consistent GS though it could work out well, especially with Horjus out at WA.

That is the signing of the window so far. Did not think Austin would move especially considering she is injured, For me the Vixens team is looking very strong and will be one of the favourites next year. Dwan to Thunderbirds seems a strange one but she will play regularly I guess, for me now watching Swifts to see what their Final two signings are. Will need to be WD like Smith, Eddy or Bragg and the third shooter who knows. Gooden, Bassett, Stanton are available but a long shot could be Kim Borger, hate to see her leave VNSL. if they promoted Local talent would be good but would the whole team be strong enough for title defence
