Message: [QUOTE="schmix, post: 2423697, member: 1780"] I think the argument is a bit circular. As Big Pete said, yes there are advantages. But for every advantage there is also a disadvantage. Eg: - The ability to develop a solid, weekly routine is probably an advantage, but when they're forced out of this routine (most importantly in the finals) will they be able to handle the change? - The Broncos don't have to deal with short turnarounds, but they also don't get the longer (8 or 9 days) turnarounds that other clubs frequently get. I can't argue with the fact that the constant FTA games are financially beneficial (and it's probably even more annoying for other clubs because the Broncos wouldn't have trouble attracting sponsorship regardless), but I really don't think there's a lot that can be done about that. Especially with the TV rights deal looking to increase significantly next year, the network is going to want viewers for their dollar. The Broncos are a fool proof ratings draw - Brisbane folk love to watch them win and Sydneysiders love to see them beaten. [/QUOTE]
