Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 2889645, member: 8272"] No the numbers are there they need to be viewed in context, just stating like you did this area has 4000 and Melbourne has 4000 so the results should be the same is wrong. If North Queensland has 4000 they don't have to overcome any of the things I have listed. The quality is going to be higher there is no culture to overcome no education to undertake. Melbourne have done terrific work and the figures show they have hugely increased the number of kids playing League in Victoria. What locals did Adelaide or Perth produce? If they were both back in do you think they'd have 17 locals any quicker than the Storm? The Storm always had to get players from somewhere else and they did great work at Norths; 13/17 in the 2006 GF played for Norths. Getting Murray from Redcliffe and employing Griffin with him was great foresight. Now they continue to do it at the Coast and Easts with their 20's based at the Coast. That's smart, if they'd just focused on having Melbourne only players they wouldn't have lasted 1 year. [/QUOTE]
