Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2892636, member: 8215"] I don’t care if PNG don’t have the resources themselves to sustain an NRL team. Looking at what they put in to these games it simply has to happen. They’re still raw but they’re at a whole new level to where they were pre-ISC. If the NRL are happy to bail out teams like the Gold Coast, which no one gives a **** about (including those that live there), they can certainly invest in PNG. What do they need? They already have a stadium. They already have a team and they can follow the prototype of some NSW Cup teams by having both a first grade and second grade team. It would really only be the hurdle of convincing non-PNG players and coaching staff to move over there. But with the current contract values of NRL players, coupled with the cost of living over there, they certainly won’t be doing it tough. Even for those players with young families I’m sure the NRL can grant them some additional funds for support networks that aren’t included in the Operations cap. [/QUOTE]
