[QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 3175602, member: 8814"] I don't think it's some orchestrated wwe-like crap by the NRL, far from it. I think, in fact I know, the nrl are just stupid and insular in their thinking. Its archaic how they run things. The Sydney boys club is blatantly obvious and has held the game back for decades now. Everything that everyone races about the NRL changing in recent years are things super league was trying to bring in 30 bloody years ago. Emphasis on attacking footy, 9s, expansion, taking the game to new areas, less Sydney teams, increased tv content and media access. It's unbelievable that people STILL think super league were the bad guys, they were just living in fucking reality. There were top many Sydney teams and there still are. We try to have a salary cap like the NFL but without a draft and without 250 million people and with 9 teams in the one city of 5 million instead of 1 team in cities of 20 million. They want clubs to operate on a system that rewards clubs for NOT DEVELOPING PLAYERS and they tell clubs how to spend their members money on and off the field ffs. This "It's gotta be fair for everyone" Australian sports mentality is such an 80s way of thinking. It's obviously not working in that regard anyway. If the NRL TRULY wanted to grow the game and were smart you'd have a bonus on your cap for EVERY dollar you invest to promote the game (eg community services, outreach, taking the game to new regions) you get back on the cap to spend. Yes the Broncos, Parramatta and the warriors would get extra but it grows the fucking game! Clubs with more fans should always be better on the field, always! Or is soccer doing something wrong? Their popularity says otherwise....Members money should go to improving their club, not shareholders or owners because the NRL has said it's not fair because some tiny club with no fans who depends on fucking hands outs of money from the money the big clubs bring in can't keep up. It'd also be good if the NRL allocated regions (city and regional) to each club (divided dependent on current amount of registered players and their local area within limits (so Broncos and warriors don't get a massive advantage) and said every player that's gets developed by your club out of that region gets e.g. 30% off the cap and for every extra 100 or so registered players in the area per year you get 5% extra on your cap. That's what pisses me off. There's no encouragement to fucking grow the game. Along with there being an obvious skew towards nsw in EVERY SINGLE POSITION OF POWER in the game and in the NRL media. QLD and NZ deserve better there. [/QUOTE]
