I doubt anyone will bother talking to the independents, if there are any left after the next election. And I mean in the lower house.
They will be powerless with the LNP very likely to have a good working, if not large majority in the lower house.
Katter may take a seat or 2 away. Even Clive Palmer if he does not self destruct before then, but without the balance of power, you are nothing in the lower house. You can flail away but it is meaningless without being inside the tent.
The senate maybe a possibility and requires less buck for the bang you get in the power game and that is what it is all about.
You would need to see who is up for re-election in each state and target the weaknesses ie Labor in general or maybe Lib states where they have had power in the state and are a bit on the nose by default.
