[QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3030411, member: 9853"] My concern with what's been happening at the Broncos over the last decade or so is we've been accumulating all these foreign mercenaries, who are all fine in their own right, and it might be good tactics for winning, but it risks losing the fanbase who identifies with the regional culture. The reason the Broncos were a strong club is because it's always had that Maroon thing going on. Players lifted to play for us. Outsiders had to prove themselves to be part of the tribe. Melbourne might be the most winning team in the comp with this tactic but barely anyone would give a shit if they moved to any other city. They have no local players. No fan culture. They are all expat mercenaries. And the Titans are failing in much the same way, despite having a hotbed of local talent. I'd like to see the Titans rebadge into a Polynesian team. They'd have tons of tribal support, which would be great for the game. And we should concentrate on promoting players in the local and country comps, and only have a few outsiders. A bit like how it's done in County Cricket, rather than the way it's done in the BBL and IPL. [/QUOTE]
