The season has come and gone once again. Saturday feb 13, 2010 will be our last game for the year and it’s against the New Zealand Breakers. Could be a crucial game for the Breakers as they still have a fighting chance at getting that last playoff spot. They first must beat the Gold Coast Blaze Thursday night and then fly over the ditch to get us on Saturday.

Looks like we still need a few hundred more season ticket holders so we can be around next season. With league numbers coming out earlier this week I was surprised to find out that we were among the league leaders in attendance. Shows that smaller communities really get behind their clubs and should be encouraged to enter the league next season.

I must say I will be deeply disappointed if the Taipans aren’t allowed to be in the new league next season. Personally I’m sick of moving to a new club and forced to move to another the following season. The 8 years I’ve been here almost every team has had financial problems. I hope this is my home fore years to come but if there is no team then I guess it’s off to another team hoping it will last longer than a year.

Who would have thought that twitter comments would make sports page headlines? The Perth fans didn’t like my comments on twitter and printed it for all to see in the Western Australian Paper. Like my website, my twitter comments are my opinion and if you don’t like what i have to say then leave or post a comment or if you want take it to the press.

Thank You Cairns for supporting us throughout the year. I know it hasn’t been easy but thanks for your continued support.

See you Sat Feb 13th, 2010 at the Snake Pit.
