one of my pet hates is all the new teams we have are all named after American teams,

we dont even have Cowboys in Oz ffs, we refer to them as stockmen

Yep, I prefer we stick with the traditional teams and their traditional Aussie names such as the Dragons, Panthers, Raiders, Knights and Tigers.

way to miss the point

Teams like Cowboys, Broncos, Crushers, Steelers and Storm are all existing American teams which the idiots who ran the NRL back copied and showed no originality, unlike Firehawks

It might be referring to Sydney real estate developers, though it's an odd mascot for a team in Townsville.

Crushers and Storm aren't American, are they?

So your point is you don't like us using American team names? The Raiders, Panthers, Warriors, Sharks , Eagles (though slightly different to see eagles) and Tigers are also American team names as are the Titans. I guess you are only happy with the names: Rabbitohs, Roosters and Eels.
