Strengths: DEPTH!!! 3 NBL starters fill the 3 bench positions in Townsville, guys capable of stepping in on any given day to cover for a starters injury or illness.
Joyce should win a few games this year making his signing significant, although his contribution will largely depend on the performance of import Cortez Groves!.
Brad Davidson should emerge as an elite PG having taken Aaron Trahairs old job in Cairns.
Weaknesses: I struggle to find a legitimate weakness here, I guess you can put a cloud of doubt over the durability of Gaze and Reidy, two of the leagues elder statesmen, but they still get the job done! Perhaps a question mark surrounds Brad Davidson as he tackles a full time starters role for the first time.
Prediction: 1st
"I REALLY like this team, from top to bottom they have legitimate NBL starters, Chappell, Davidson, Crawford and Ryan appear on the cusp of breakout seasons while Gaze and Reidy don't look like slowing down in a hurry.
Joyce will prove the deciding factor in this teams fortunes, if Wollongong can win 20 games and these guys stay healthy then these Crocs should win the whole damn league, if not, 2nd could be way out of reach, I think they will give it one hell of a shake!" - Ross Williams
