Okay, I had a look at it last night. I think both teams will have a great season and are both a strong chance of finishing in the top 4, if not winning the title.

Brisbane will begin with a few injuries, so they may start the year off a bit slowly. When they get their best team on the court however, it looks VERY strong with players like Freeman, Brannen, Rucker, Black and Kerle. Townsville have picked up a couple of strong imports and with the addition of John Rillie and the experience of Rose, I definitely expect them to improve on last year.

If I was forced to choose, I would pick the Bullets to finish just ahead of Townsville, but it'll probably be close so if you like the Crocs' chances, go for it.

By the way, I also expect Cairns to do pretty well this year, certainly better than the bookies have rated them anyway.
