[QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 3005576, member: 8814"] The Afl have spent MILLIONS on the sun's and the western Sydney team and they are still haemorrhaging money year after year. Simple question. If it was such a smart decision why is it no longer happening? The afl have the money to keep doing it. The reason is everytime afl was mentioned in QLD or nsw it was "ex nrl player", it only served the nrl. Such a shortsighted decision. Most people in non afl states can't name 3 players in their local team, and a major reason for that is the 3-5 years that the star of the team that was the focus of their air time on the sports news in those states was an nrl player who ended up leaving anyway. Also yes, stupid career move. He would have made twice the money over his career in the nrl, not been a laughing stock (and probably therefore less likely to go through the "dramas" he did), been captain of the biggest nrl club and played plenty of rep footy... But instead he had the problems he had, was playing for the afl's equivalent of the titans (when not in the state league) and blew away the potential to be a great. So, I think "stupid decision" is probably being generous..... [/QUOTE]
