The same can be said for NQ, yet at one point half the Knights backline was NQ born or produced players.
No club has a monopoly on local juniors.

Has it occurred to us that half this thread is responding to the rantings of an idiot? I’ve made the same mistake of reading and responding to his crap. No more.
The nzrl is a separate body which controls its own territory
You think maybe that’s a warriors specific problem
Warriors have next to no control that 16 other clubs source players from their territory, they don’t have a monopoly on the players - thus don’t ’have An entire country’
Should change the name of the club then shouldn’t they to south Auckland

Probably comes down to money - the Warriors have a smaller operating budget than most other clubs with no leagues club grant propping them up, and I don’t think our owner’s pickets are as deep as some of the other clubs with rich backers.Stuff
“A group bidding for a Christchurch NRL franchise plans to roll out 22 regional academies across New Zealand from 2025, catering for up to 2200 student athletes.
The Southern Orcas say the programme will “guarantee a production line of talent’’ for the new club and the NRL as a whole with up to 100 students in each centre.”
The first regional centres are expected to open in the first half of 2025, with Christchurch expected to be the first base. The proposal would also see academies in Otago, Southland, the West Coast and the Tasman districts in the South Island and North Island regions, from Wellington to Auckland.“
Why don’t the warriors do this ?
Competition is good we will see how poorly the warriors are run
What about their pockets?
Is this happening irrespective of the orcas being accepted as NZ2 or is it on the condition of them being team #20?Stuff

Yep if Wellington were the per capital gold standard we'd need india and China just to field the teams
So even after explicitly stating my point you still don't really know kind of validates it.
So you're validating points which aren't known...content?... within your own paradox?
I would like to see PVL buy some assets while keeping the NRLs ownership undisclosed via a company trust.
While potentially feasible, unlike a private family business that is able to keep such things secret through various corporate structures and nominees, probably a bit harder for an entity like the NRL to keep such secrets. Someone from within the NRL, an employee of the establishment acquired or a journalist will blab or find out and will be in the press straight away.
Wonder how much its costing and whose paying for it and for how long?Stuff

That’s what I was wondering. What actually constitutes an academy? Because 200K isn’t going to pay for much more than one full time employee and the rent on basic training facilities.
