A few days ago there was an article in the Brisbane newspaper that says that even if new investors can't be found for the team the New NBL will fund it themselves. They said that they have raised 3 million dollars, enough to fund a new Brisbane team.
Sorry if this news isn't new to you.
@NBl Fan - anything else of interested mentioned?
Where would $3mill come from? That's a fair wad of supposed cash from outside parties to be giving to someone else.
That said, would love nothing more than a team back in Brisbane. Just a bit dubious as to all these releases claiming Brisbane is a lock to return.

Plan for a new Brisbane team will be unveiled by the end of the year.
There was a small picture of Leroy Loggins on the back page of the paper and that is great because at least we know we will get a bit of newspaper coverage in Brissie.
Found it in the Tuesday paper.
Sounds promising.
