[roughyedspud]

Blah blah blah...we're shit and we're gonna win 3-0...thats all that matters

You should really do some research before making bold statements like that.

You do know that each year around 700 teenage league players are signed/move from NZ to Australia? NRL club scouts are now everywhere in NZ.

Add to this the Warriors have the most successful U20?s team in the history, and I also believe have had the most convert from U20?s to NRL. Every year we have other NRL clubs signing our juniors. It would be very uncommon to find and NRL club with no Kiwi kids in their U20?s/NRL teams?

They are one of the best supported clubs in the NRL, especially on away games with all the expat Kiwis in Australia. Is it not ironic that NRL clubs are now playing home matches in NZ?

The Warriors are the number one sold jersey in the NRL..

Hardly stats that show NZ is leeching off the NRL?A good proportion of the NRL Stars are Kiwi players?then you add in the TV Deal with SKY Tv to the NRL?

Oh lets not forget the NRL Auckland Nines initiative that was lead by NZ and now Australia want it played in Australia?

NZ adds so much to the NRL, it?s not surprising there are Australians calling for a second team in NZ.

Edit:

47 Players have come from the Warriors U20's to NRL level...the most of any club. That is probably more than 2 years worth in the Super League and this number doesn't even include the players that are signed up by other clubs straight from local league..

Yup we clearly leech off the NRL..

Your players go to AUSTRALIA. Your flagship team plays in the AUSTRALIAN NRL. Your national team need to play AUSTRALIA to fund the game in New Zealand. Your national team scouts second generation AUSTRALIANS. Can you see a common theme here.

NZ owes more to its development to penrith & parramatta than penrose...

Who cares? This is a typical league argument which serves no purpose. The way to develop a sport is for the networks to work together in symbiosis not for them to start petty fights between themselves. If Australia helps out NZ, great.

Man you Poms are really thick...Our players are signed by AUSTRALIAN clubs to go to Australia....very few now go over to have a crack without a contract.

We have a team in their Competition and what? NZ is too small to have a professional competition...they had to shorten the Rugby National Competition because its not profitable....Basketball, Soccer, Netball, Rugby are the same or combined...

Our national team needs to play Australia to make a profit?? Where are we now you Muppet.....if we didnt lose a Million $$ during the RLWC years we wouldn't be desperate to send a side half way around the world..

We scout second generation Australian players??? Wow that's rich considering England had to use Rangi Chase recently:sarcasm:

I love how you are too gutless to even answer questions.....England have won NOTHING in 30-40 years...that is pathetic....you cant even beat Australia...

Come talk to me when you win a meaning full tournament that involves the best nations...not one that involves Wales and France :sarcasm:

Oh by the way....Your best players go to AUSTRALIA. Your select just about every English player in the NRL for your national team. Your coach is an Asst coach in the NRL.....its pretty sad when you have a professional competition yet you select a quarter of your team from the NRL:roll::roll:

Anyways im out you are too thick to even answer any questions and just come back with uneducated responses...just keep enjoying your average competition and we will enjoy one of the toughest competitions in the world..

Let's not be too critical of France. They probably would have won if Remi Casty was playing.
