Taipans' Recent Performance
After a strong start to the season, the Cairns Taipans endured a tough seven-game losing streak. They finally broke this run by defeating the Tasmania JackJumpers on the road in their last match. While this win could signal improvement, it’s unlikely they will build momentum from this success.
The Taipans remain one of the league’s weakest teams, sitting at the bottom of the standings with a poor 3-8 win-loss record. Their struggles are compounded by the absence of four key players. To fill the gaps, they signed Mojave King, a recent player for the New Zealand national team.
We doubt that will help as they are shorthanded and currently out of form.
Summary
The Cairns Taipans face major challenges due to absences and poor form, making it unlikely they will improve significantly despite recent roster changes.
