Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2291372, member: 1992"] Of course your right. I have missed the point to a degree. ( draggx ) not you Coxy !!...I do have an opinion as to any positives that have arisen and I did think about them when watching the Victorian public and it's commentators both within the media and in administration. The public seemed to be rallying to the cause and the codes ongoing struggle seems to be raising awareness. Victorians being staunchly defensive of a rugby league team and turning out in thousands to fan days was not something I'd have believed in years gone by. The siege mentality is not something foreign to us in Queensland nor to anyone under a perceived threat. The loyal fans down deep south have suffered and know what mountainous challenges the Storm have faced and by being seen and highly vocal they will be seen by fellow Victorian non-league followers as a persecuted group of kindred souls. No Victorian will have sympathy for the NRLs side of the story and will observe and empathise with the die-hards struggles. That should be good news down the track if the Storm survive as I'm sure they will. Origin in Qld enjoyed huge success largely because we felt hard done by. It is no tragedy that same mentality is being built in Victoria. It'll be great for league. [/QUOTE]
