Yeah they should make Buderus play injured.
As for Casino, the CRL has a duty to protect existing clubs. If they'd let a new club come along and two years down the track they both folded the same f**kwits would be crying that the CRL did the wrong thing. They had figures that proved that this town couldn't sustain two clubs long term and they made sure the existing long-standing club was protected. Just because the Daily Telegraph, and one particular journo who hates Terry Quinn because Quinn stood up to lies he has told previously, decided to tell half the story and because other Sydney media decide to tell half the story doesn't make any of it fair or accurate. These dickheads would have never been to Casino, or anywhere else in country NSW. But they still think they can take half the story and run with it. All the CRL staff, including the regional area managers, development officers, and executive - who are independent of clubs - are slandered while a handful of bias peole with a grudge are treated like all they say is gospel.
Some other clown was on here last week saying it was the CRL's fault that Bellingen was struggling in Group 2. Apparently it's the CRL's fault that the local saw mill closed and the players all left to look for work elsewhere. Even though it was the CRL who sent its staff in to sort that very same club out a few years ago because they couldn't get a side on the park - even when the saw mill was still running.
It's just the same old bullshit all the time. Some no-name nuffies who have never lifted a finger to do anything for the sport in the bush sit on their arse and bag off of the CRL from behind their computer screens. If they didn't tell lies, believe other people's lies and make basless assertions, like the fact that junior numbers are falling, they might have some right or reason to criticise. But of course they don't.
