:lol: Appears they are trying to make amends for the many Kiwis that Australia has claimed over the years

The Tall Blacks sure could use him at the world champs though

Have we claimed any kiwis?

I played against Bairstows brother, who's also pretty solid.

So great to see CB get picked.
 
Very happy with Wiggins. Fits well into the roster, athelticism is through the roof, can jump to the moon, great defender, very good in transition, confident, good attutiude, doesn't need the ball to be effective, two-way player and even though it isn't consistent, can hit the open jumper. Needs to work on his aggressiveness but that will come with time. Already has chemistry with TT and Bennett from the AAU circuits and Canada national team which is good.

Interesting thing though, David Griffin said he sees Wiggins becoming a great player at the 2 spot. Could mean that Dion is coming off the bench or is being shopped. But would still put money on Wiggins starting at the 3 next season.
 
Thoroughly impressed with going to Wolves lololol

Did he say "F**k Me"? lol
