Powerhouse state?
I know it's way too early in the silly season but I like the way the Queensland teams are shaping up.
It must be something in the water up there, or as someone else posted somewhere else, the sun.
Compare the QLD teams to the rest of the country.
With the talent up there - Bradtke, McKinnon, Mee, Cat, Newley, Burgess, Rillie etc amongst three teams sort of leaves the rest of the country looking at a long season.
So far I reckon Adel are actually doing the best in signings out of the rest. Perth aren't looking too good, Hunter are unknown, Melb decimated, Wollongong same old minus Mee, NZ will be crap as usual, and Syd again looks like cleaning house.
This might actually get some interest in the league since it seems the banana benders have the most feverish supporters.
Definitely liking the look of Cairns - Black, Mee, Cat, Burgess, Boodnikoff, Stewart.
But then again, there's Brisbane too!
And if Townsville score Brown and Calvary again to run alongside Rille and Newley...
Other teams better start pulling their heads out of the sand.
