Message: [QUOTE="Ari Gold, post: 2435762, member: 1917"] As I agree the Sharks and Roosters are dead weight I'm going to jump in on this one. I think the Titans are dead weight too. But not the Storm. Cronulla and "Sydney" are not important markets. They aren't big markets, and there are lots of other teams in close proximity. Long term, will the existence of the Sharks and Roosters help lay a foundation for league to grow significantly in those areas? IMO, no. Does the existence of the Storm help grow the presence in a key market? Absolutely. Granted I don't think it's very fast and spectacular progress, but having a presence and growing the game in a region like Melbourne has benefits. So even though they don't pull big crowds, their existence is still purposeful. Is the existence of the Sharks and the Roosters going to provide the same sort of potential benefits? Not at all.
