The "big" signing is South Australia's Trent Kelly. Apparently we also chased Mark Cameron and Dan Christian, but left Tim Lang (who is apparently looking to move) well alone.

Pretty sure Allenby never had a contract. Just got a go for the Twenty20 due to decent form. There may be contractual issues due to his Leics games as well.

Edit: I asked around, and the consensus is that he seems to have turned down a contract due to the fact that it would mean Leics have to sign him as an overseas player rather than him qualifying due to his grandmother or whatever gets him in now. Same reason why Mascarenhas has never played for WA.
 
someone got info about kelly?

Played a couple of tour games in the Top End series last year & did ok...

(4-day match v India-A) / 34 overs 3-88 & 2 overs 0-19

(50-over match v NZ-A) / 10 overs 2-49

(50-over match v NZ-A) / 10 overs 2-50

Could blossom with us if given a run in the side.

Won't play any 4 day games for you. Too short (under 6 foot I think). Reasonable heat (mid 130's, occassionally pushes 140), bit of outswing, dishes them up once the shine is off the ball. Might play a one dayer or two.

Would be a good pick up for a Grade Club if you can get him.
 
Good to see Meuleman go, had plenty of opportunity and talent but never brought it to state cricket. Worthington = Fringe 1 day player at best.

He says he's gone there to work with Lillee, Reid and Moody and I don't think it's unfair to say he needs it. Batting might get him some one dayers but he won't bowl any better than what they've already got.
 
HTF does Sean Ervine keep a full contract? He's done SFA. Worthington has done better us than the Zimmo Refo.
