dont blame the players when they get bigger money offers from other clubs or other codes, blame the nrl and the cap. i seem to remember bruno saying that we could pay our players 7 million a year or something, imagine the team we would have with that, and the crowds they would draw everywhere...
when u consider Nth QLD, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Sydney North (manly, norths, and other northern teams as feeders), Sydney East, Sydney West, Sydney South, Melbourne, Canberra, New Zealand thats leaves a gradual expansion for another 5-7 teams. i think if something like this was done...
