Taipans already signed 2 players, another to come

Hahaha Community Model Budget !! Nice one Mick you obviously have your finger on the pulse from Brownsville, who can't raise the community support for a full community ownership like Cairns. Last 2 seasons in a row, Taipans have posted small operating surpluses and grown the business to the extent the new NBL has the Taipans board helping. The player salary spend at the Taipans is around $850-900K (publicly available via the AGM) but is topped up by the Spend to the Cap fund where corporate and generous locals can top up the spending cap with direct sponsorship of the players ie. Jamar Wilson is directly sponsored by Cairns Zoom via the Spend to the Cap Fund and it allowed us to keep him for 3 years and maybe much longer - he lives and breaths what the club is to the community and he attracts more fans and sponsors every season.

Hudson makes sense here, strong rebounding presence, sort of effort that Fearne loves. Good accompaniment to Trigger.

Much as I like Loughton they can't afford to play him with Trig concurrently.

Bruce is FT. As far as I know they don't know if Grabau will return or not.. So 8 players?

Kings announcement won't be until Friday at the earliest.
