Cairns looking for a 'big banger' import
@Vart, have a look at the schools they played for. It can be argued that the St Marys starting five could all get drafted, that is one quality team. Bose played for a no-name school.

@Isaac - never heard of a contract that extended beyond a few weeks after the end of the season. If your not getting paid why would you hang around ?

Cairns are looking VERY good. If Steindl is near Bose standard and Gliddon is anything like his stats show, Cairns will be very tough. They have added so many more dimensions to their game with this new roster. Get Brad Hill back along with a big import (someone like Grant/Simpson that would come in to bring ridiculous amounts of energy and own the paint for 25 minutes a game), and they will cover everything offensively and defensively. Top 2 for sure.

Picture of Alex Loughton in Taipans uniform today. Alex had an option for a 3rd year but wasn't taken up. Seemed funny till you notice that he dropped a point to 8. I believe he has re-signed with the club at the lower points ranking. You don't do corp sponsor trips for a club you don't intend on staying around for. Trigger/Loughton will share the PF duties - inside game + outside game giving Fearne Offensive and defensive options.
