[QUOTE="Jeba, post: 2392939, member: 1827"] Look at the AFL results of the last couple of rounds in particular. Port Adelaide lose their last 2 games by over 100 points, and multiple thrashings this season. Gold Coast lose to Collingwood by over 100 points, and multiple thrashings this season. Melbourne lose by 50+ points their last 3 games, including a 186 point loss to Geelong. The great teams are great, the poor teams are terrible and not even worth watching, and crowds and ratings reflect this. Once the "new kids in town" novelty of the Suns wears off, they'll be lucky to get 2,000 people to their games if past Gold Coast trends are anything to go by. In the AFL, at the moment it looks as if it's a case of too many teams and not enough good players across the board, and it will probably get worse when GWS come in next season. Now if the same thing happens in the NRL, and we add a couple of new teams, wherever they may be, I fear for the same sort of effect. Imagine having a couple of teams in the comp worse than the Titans are currently :shake: So what's the solution? An obvious answer might be that we need to cut a couple of Sydney teams before we even think about expansion. Or maybe a major overhaul of the salary cap? (Which I think needs to happen anyway). What do we do great minds of BHQ??? [/QUOTE]
