You want da cream of da crop?
Tha Warburtons and tha Josh Morris type?

You gotta pay !

Some areas be football rich participation wise like Illawarra, Brisbane,Parramatta and penrith...Other areas like Sydney City dont have the parks to support juniors and they gotta pay.

In tha footy rich areas you cant cram them all in da one team if you tried. Otherwise Brissys 5th best side still beating Melbournes best side.
Melbourne dont play d game, same thing.


In Bankstowns case we got alot of ethnics, chinese, Afghans etc.

These people dont do sport. If they do, it soccer. One day they might but ATM the area is filled wid people that got other issues and interests.

Hey even coming from someone like me who disrespects your club, has no good feelings towards them, not even any passive ones ... Your club literally disgusts me in every way ...


Even I would be on Canterbury's side in this argument.


It was a marketing gimmick for ONE single game FFS lol


A game where they happened to draw a crowd they probably wouldn't have drawn otherwise too for that matter ;-)

Im over it, its a stupid thing to talk about really considering that theres a thing called the salary cap. My only problem with the whole situation is that they gave sh*t to the roosters about it and then did the same thing. The whole bred not bought gripe they had with the roosters was a pretty stupid way to go about things, especially since its impossible for any club to not buy players in the leagues current format.

They gave sh*t to the Roosters because the Roosters purchased a large chunk of their players which was why the match and therefore the slogan was so hyped up to begin with.

What annoys me about the situation is that everyone is complaining about how there's not enough money, there aren't enough genuine rivarlies, yet when a team is active in hyping a game to increase revenue fans feel the need to crap all over it for years to come.

Exactly right, we built that rivalry and people still hate on it, we need more of it in the game.

This would have to be the 5th thread with the title "Bought Not Bred" in the last 6 or so months:lol:...

Bulldogs 4 Life!

There has been about 456 thousand saints premiers t-shirts threads, but that didn't stop anyone running with the lie. The bred not bought shirts were actually produced. Suck it up sweetie.

every team buys & sells players - it is a sign of the times.

dogs probably have a few less juniors than most sides but they did lose alot of senior players who were breed in the last 2 years i.e. mason, matuia, sbw, hughes, etc

Well, if you adopt the philosophy of some people on here, you have to go down to kids footy to get the "true" gauge... :roll:
