Sandringham are stacked with Melbourne United talent, featuring Shea Ili, Tom Koppens, Campbell Blogg, David Barlow and Krebs. With Pineau joining, it fills a massive gap at centre the Sabres needed. 

NBL24 was Pineau's first season with the New Zealand Breakers, he played in 24 games averaging 7.3 minutes for the Finals team. 

He’ll suit up for his first game of the season against the Eltham Wildcats on Saturday, streaming live from 8:00pm AEST live via NBL1.com.au or the NBL1 App.
