Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3323195, member: 9052"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moneyball_(film)[/URL] It's basically buying players in a pragmatic way where you focus on players who are somewhat comparable to the output of star players for a fraction of the cost. In NRL a $200k prop might be delivering the same output as a star player for a fraction of the cost... but the lesser player usually has a risk component (age, injuries, poor at a different aspect of play, etc.) which is why they're cheaper. Storm dont typically spend much money on their support players (forwards and outside backs), and instead get guys who are good at performing very specific roles in their system. It's all about spending the big money on the guys who will win you games and then surround them with role players at a lower cost. A poor man's Munster isn't really going to help you get wins, but a poor man's Lolo could still churn out 130m a game and give you 60 quality minutes a game. [/QUOTE]
