Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3105975, member: 9853"] For those of you who've seen this headline in the CM and wondered what the **** it's about, here is the unedited passage of text that relates to it: [B]Phil Rothfield[/B] blithers in The Sunday Telegraph: "Remember where you read this first … the NRL will be a 17-team competition with two teams in Brisbane by 2023, when the current broadcast deal expires. There will be an extra bye each week to help with player burnout. That is the mail your columnist has been getting in Perth, where the game’s powerbrokers have gathered for the Nines and a CEO conference. The decision on expansion has to be made by July to enable NRL CEO Todd Greenberg, ARLC chairman Peter V’landys and commercial chief Andrew Abdo to take the new competition format to potential broadcasters. The AFL’s already out in the market. Poor attendances at the Nines over the weekend should end any debate about having a team from WA in any expanded NRL competition." McHunt [/QUOTE]
