Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2831700, member: 1769"] Clubs won't stand up to the NRL on this matter because they know if Origin is affected, then so will the size of the TV rights deal. and if the NRL get less money from TV rights then that is less money the the clubs can try to extort out of the NRL. and the clubs desperately need big club grants to survive since the majority of them can't manage their own finances. and a lesser club grant will likely result in a smaller salary cap since we need to play down to the lowest common denominator. The club's would just rather whinge about how origin affects them, while ignoring the benefits that it gives the game in Australia. well, I have a solution for Mr. Green and any other club that complains about origin: DON'T SIGN ORIGIN PLAYERS, or any player likely to make origin. it will leave you with Kiwi's, Poms and hacks. It will also likely leave you on a permanent September holiday, but they won't have to worry about origin affecting their seasons [/QUOTE]
