Norths have been part of the area for over 70 years and are involoved in the community as much as any other club.I would suggest they are part of the fabric of the north eastern suburbs and not plonked there.I once again reiterate the number of junior affiliations and their junior programmes which are at least the equal of any Qcup club.
What if they do pay their players well,so do Redcliffe and Easts ....good luck to them.I fail to see the connection between player payments and provision of capital improvements.What are Norths supposed to do forget paying players to build toilet blocks..makes good business sense.
That brings me to your point about being a business....sure is and so is Redclife Wynum Easts etc etc.Clubs have to be run as a business to survive and allow funds to pay players,invest in community services and improve facilities,how you prioritise these components is upto the club and their business plan.
Oh....and if you are going to make gratuitous statements back them with statistics and facts and not biased personal observations.
