[QUOTE="Kimlo, post: 2779392, member: 2021"] Yet they're still constantly given credit for those 2 premierships, they got all the experience and learning that comes with grand final appearances and I've yet to see one player admit they didn't actually win those finals. Even the commentators around the game constantly mention those premierships without any context, just that "fantastic team" blah blah. And that's right, Melbourne lost everything they illegally gained, i.e Nothing they legitimately gained was lost. I don't care who they developed, that's a huge cop out excuse from a Broncos fan when we lose quality players year after year because we can't afford to keep them. I'd be happy to ditch the salary cap tomorrow, but when there's rules, and one team goes rogue, that's a hugely unfair advantage to those playing legal. Hell, even with their illegal team, in the year where they couldn't play for points, they denied legitimate teams wins and competition points. The sharks have also been shamed, SOME players actually got real punishments (2years+), and the league community now widely refers to them as drug cheats. The Storm players and the staff, got away with absolutely zilch, not even "admitted guilt", absolute zilch. It was only constant denial and "we're hard done by" and "na na we did nothing wrong, block my ears" commentary from the entire club. If I had it my way, the Storm would be on a reduced cap for 5 years to match the amount of time they had an advantage for, and every Sharks player involved would be getting a 2 year ban. I think both got off super lightly, except the Storm's cap cheating had far more effect than a shit **** team taking some drugs to recover quicker. [/QUOTE]
