I agree with you on the Melbourne issue.
The game is NOT a NATIONAL game, and never will be. Just because the game's controlling body is called the NATIONAL RUGBY LEAGUE doesn't mean you have to make it a national comp. You can't call the controlling body the "NSWQACTRL", so they condense it down to a national controlling body.
I think its time we look after our own code and breed it into areas in which rugby league thrives, be it the Gold Coast or Central Coast.
Who cares what the AFL do, who cares what any other code of football in this country does rugby league needs to be showcased in the 3 main areas of and for its existenst in Australia. If this can be achieved, which it is still slowly getting back on its feet, we can claim as rugby league fans to have to the most successful, enjoyable (to us supporters anyway) and skillful competition.
To end I'd like to see some of you people run the NRL if you think you know so much on how to run a business at a profit and keep everyone happy at the same time.
