Message: [QUOTE="titan4wests, post: 2206355, member: 2047"] you make some very valid points about nz. it just seems like such a shame that this is perhaps the best opportunity to crack the kiwi market (given the recent success of the kiwis at international level) that league has ever had yet it will struggle as a product over the ditch. i think that investing in PNG is a good move, obviously they wont be getting an nrl team any time soon but investment in to png at the development level sounds like a positive move to me, same for northern territory. You guys familiar with the afl's push in to NT? having a NT team in the QAFL state league is a great idea and its giving the indigenous kids a great pathway to the draft. I believe its an expensive venture but whilst its only in its first year, it seems to be pretty successful thus far. boy those guys have natural ability. Perhaps the nrl could look at something like that to promote the game at grass roots level before starting an entire franchise out there. Imagine a NT or PNG team in QLD Cup [/QUOTE]
