Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2824308, member: 8215"] Third party deals. Have a cry. You know why we * apparently * have players with such good 3rd party deals? Because we give a shit about our football. The Gold Coast is overflowing with easy money. Rip off that guy, cash it, go bankrupt, rent a mansion and a beemer with the cash while working on the next target. People are desperate to throw their money on something that makes them look good. The Titans should be able to source way more deals than the Broncos. So why don't they? Because no one gives a shit about the Titans, or Rugby League, on the coast. Newcastle's money tree is the mining industry, and while the pool is not only shrinking, but diluting too, there is still enough for some very high profile people to exploit it. But again, no one gives a shit. Blue collar isn't cool any more. ****, the Raiders? Why do they bother having a team there? Politicians and public servants would be outraged if they knew that people were smacking in to each other[I] for sport[/I]. That's why they have to throw their talent net so wide. No one in Canberra gives a ****. The Roosters? There's probably about 5 latte douchebags and one rich guy who cares. It just so happens that the rich guy has enough money and friends to do it all by himself. Stop getting all pissy because your team can't attract outside support. If there isn't the support, should there be a team? It's the same with all the Sydney clubs, trying to have the NRL prop them up because they can't support themselves. If you can't, **** OFF. Amalgamate. I reckon you could clump together 5 or 6 teams in to one, and call them the "Greater South East Australia Irrelevants". Then you'd have the marketing power and 3rd party deals of 5 or 6 clubs combined. Yay! Might even fill a stadium. [/QUOTE]
