Message: [QUOTE="PineappleHead, post: 3281108, member: 13220"] This goes right back to when the NSWRL (as it was back then) through their arrogance, granted only one license for a Brisbane club. They should have granted two or three. Back then, the NSWRL considered themselves rugby league gods. Every year, NSW flogged Qld in interstate football. Rugby League Week would dedicate two pages of its 50-odd to the Brisbane league. The NSWRL considered Brisbane a rugby league back-water, and due to their arrogance, created a monster (Brisbane Broncos). Over 30 years later, when the financial strain of COVD19 hit, they took the opportunity to begin correcting the error of the the NSWRL and ensure that the one or two extra Brisbane teams had every chance of success. Because now - it was about ensuring the financial viability of the league - and Vlandys is willing to sacrifice short term profit for long-term gain. As a man connected with the shady world of horse racing, Vladys is fully capable of dirty dealing, and in hindsight, I can now see why he was so determined to get the NRL back on track after the original lockdown. He had a plan he needed to deploy. [/QUOTE]
