Message: [QUOTE="Allo, post: 3110685, member: 8190"] You love ignoring about 90% of people’s posts and then selectively refuting the now-redundant to sound clever. I already said that you would have to increase the squads to at least 40. As far as signing ISC players for the reserve grade side, that’s what happens now anyway to the current ISC teams. I understand that some players want to play for a local club that they may be a part of, but that’s only lacking for us as a result of the club being created to compete in the top grade and not formed at local levels and/or promoted from the BRL. I also said that it may end up killing a Brisbane top grade side or two, which has happened before with clubs dying or defaulting back to the local competitions, and of course that’s sad and unfortunate, but there’s always casualties as things progress. I do admit it’s a nice look that there is no NRL clubs with teams in the QCup. We have plenty of money, or at least should, and sponsors shouldn’t really be an issue. The club, in my opinion, needs to focus on being an actual club, because it’s arguable that currently it’s really just a Brisbane rep team that can also sign players. For arguments sake, half of the NSW Cup has NRL club reserve sides now and they seem to do fine. It’s not going to be easy, it’ll be expensive, and it’ll be met with a lot of pushback, but I think it’s something the club needs to do at some point in the near future. Or at the very least, seriously explore to the point of pulling the trigger and doing it. Alternatively they could wait for a natural death of a Brisbane side, but I wouldn’t have a clue when or if that could be a possibility anytime soon. I’m not saying I have all the answers and that it’s a simple thing that won’t potentially have far-reaching effects, just that the notion shouldn’t be dismissed straightaway for the sake of it. And course Toowoomba is not a valid option. Because it’s fucking Toowoomba. [/QUOTE]
