I really hope this venture works out, and the people of Melbourne get behind a second team, surely there are Vics out there that hate Anstey as much as me and would strongly consider chhering against him!

If basketball is a success at the Commonwealth Games (ie we beat Canada and win Gold), surely this provides a platform for the new team to thrive in a saturated sports market?
AFAIK Basketball and Netball are the only real team sport events at these Games worth seeing? (no soccer, Rugby 7s? etc)

To recognize the Gaze family and also Melbourne's most consistent Sporting Sponsor - Crown Casino, how about the Victorian Shuffle.
Could even use the old Graham Parker song - New York Shuffle as a theme song.
