Hearing rumours the nix off to china for a period of the break. Thoughts/ any other news?

I believe the proposed trip is because of Hauwei, building brand image etc...

Interesting as last I heard from Nix was that they weren't going to China now, was only an idea. 2nd Best asked them about it I think bout week back on Twitter.

Join a few twilight leagues*, maybe a bit of indoor too. Sweet!

You know if they went and played a week in China to keep the sponsors happy, I think that would be a very shrewd move

But it is the off season over there and other than the China National Team (which will be in Oz) there is bugger all going on.  Plus it will be brass monkey weather oop north.

Maybe play the Gangzhou teams (if they have got their squads assembled - although Hengda will be mostly in the national team in Oz).
