Rumour: New Team into Penang
No Fiji, but if Dick Johnson had been flogging them it might have been a different story.
That makes sense with the Tigers Chinese ties over the years, numerous tours, Chinese sponsors and a Chinese player at Melbourne.
That familiarity can't hurt.
Although I do fear all of this expansion is happening a bit too quickly. Singapore is struggling for numbers, West Sydney are on the Brink, Sixers numbers are down (although there is no fear of a fold, just not overly strong at the moment), Kings are struggling (just on a side note how credible is Firepower, whenever I hear there claims I think of Peter Brock's magic ioniser in years gone past). I hope they don't make too many rash decisions with the lure of the Asian dollar. We might only get one shot at this, let's get it right.
