Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3654497, member: 1899"] Jersey Flegg provides a better opportunity. For starters, it's supported by thirteen NRL clubs so players have a direct path to the NRL if they're good enough. The competition receives more attention than the BRL, so scouts are far more likely to be impressed with what they see in Flegg than what's happening in Carina. They're also coming through an NRL system, so there's going to be input from the clubs and coaches for their expectations. Meanwhile in the QRL, it's largely coming from the QCup clubs. It's why a lot of NSWRL affiliate sides are entering their own teams into the competition - they want synergy and they're happy to eat the cost. Melbourne are one of the exceptions, but notice they have a Jersey Flegg side as well - that was a key difference that should have been mentioned the other day. If they're not playing at AAMI Park, the club is taking their game to Broadmeadows, so Brisbane may have to consider that option. As it stands, the Broncos don't seem to value those players and consider it a waste of time and money. If that's the case, they could be right but they're an extremely shallow team and their ceiling isn't that high to begin with. [/QUOTE]
