Should Souths go?

[the kirwan kid]

I know there's lot of tradition and history but is it time for Souths to go? Bring in a team for NSW's central coast and another for SE QLD for the 2006 competition so we have 16 teams. I don't know much about AFL but I understand they propped up teams like Sydney and Brisbane with money and salary cap exemptions to ensure thir longevity and success. Maybe it's time for our admin to look at the big picture (i.e the next 20 years) rather than the next season. I'd be interested to hear people's thoughts.

Should Souths go where? Out of the comp? Just because they are losing it doesn't mean they should be kicked out of the competition, they must stay

 

[ibeme]

Perhaps they should merge/relocate to the Central Coast

Needs to be three less teams in Sydney - not really phased which ones or how

Oink !

 

[Biglance]

no way i wish we had newtown and norths back in as well

 

[t-ba]

No way. Teams Shouldn't be forced out. Pressure should be placed on the Sydney clubs to squeeze a few out. This pressure could be best applied by approving all three expansion bids.

 

[swing_low]

how about get rid of the teams no one supports and bring back the norths and the newtowns etc

No!!....Souths in form attract big numbers to the games..just need them to start wining and get rid off that bloody Tapp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How the hell do South Sydney, St George Illawarra, Cronulla, Cantebury, Sydney City, Parramatta, Penrith, Manly, Newton, North Sydney and Wests all fit in to the NRL? I don't agree with getting rid of sth sydney is the right thing to do - but if there's one thing we DON"T need it's more sydney clubs.

 

[Trollhammaren]

Relocate them.

 

[mickdo]

relocate

Get rid of Brisbane, Melbourne, New Zealand et all and bring back Norths, Newtown, Illawarra, Wests, Balmain ect...

[Phillips]

the topic of this thread is a joke, souths should have never been punted in the first place

 

[rugged]

Wests and Balmain did the right thing.

 

[Mal Meninga]

How long do we have to wait before Souths even become half decent?
