Blaze situation still unclear

I have not doubt the Tomlinson's intentions are genuine for the Blaze, I just don't like putting the same crew that burnt $12.5million in 5 years and left people out of pocket could look anyone in the face and be taken seriously to run a ball club.

The other GM's would not want the Blaze to collapse as it would effect TV rights / sponsorship for the league as a whole - I believe BA will assist the Blaze secure some sort of guarantee for this season, but will be pushing all clubs along the more integrated community model when KK takes the job 4/8. (Especially the Blaze who need to be around more than another season and blow up spectacularly again)

The whole Joyce thing is bizarre - contract is a contract regardless of what he did or didn't do. He didnt sign an nbl contract and got burnt. Blaze burnt alot of people so join the club. The end

Spoken to 3 GMs/CEO's who are actually in Melbourne at the NBL CEO meetings today. All 3 said they haven't been told. So not official yet, don't get too excited.
