Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2352524, member: 1764"] Think about geographical area, though. Newcastle has its population in a fairly nice semi-urban area. Sunshine Coast's population is spread up an area around 50km long (Caloundra to Noosa) and 20km wide (Coast to Mapleton). And public transport infrastructure in the area isn't crash hot. Still, Sunny Coast COULD support a team. Brisbane COULD support another team. Ipswich COULD support a team. Rockhampton COULD support a team. But do we just want another team, or do we want an excellent, successful team? If so, then any talk of a new team has to be accompanied by a) a discussion about which Sydney team dies/relocates, and b) a discussion about how to modify our salary cap rules to retain our elite players as well as the stock standard first graders who are the ones that seem to most regularly disappear off to England at about 25/26 years of age. Until we can retain our player base, growing the competition is not an option. [/QUOTE]
