Taipans keep Fearne for three years
Great reward for a strong effort this season. Also nice to see him stay up there rather than bail for a bigger city.
Fearne, who took the Taipans to a grand final and came agonisingly close to making the top-four this season, was expected to draw plenty of interest from rival NBL clubs.The Taipans only have Loughton and Rychart signed beyond this year and are looking to get a few more signatures soon.
But he only had eyes for the Taipans.
"I have had the taste for success over the past two seasons and I want this club to be able to taste the champagne as champions in the next few years," he said in a statement sent to The Cairns Post yesterday.
"So even though this season we may not be able to go past this Friday night, I am already looking forward to continually improving the playing group and the club in the next three years."
