Question to Management: Why Souths Logan?

[paulquinn49]

Bay I think a drawcard of Sydney is hearing about all the interesting stuff that happens, gangs going to a Sydney school, riots, APEC etc.

It's time Canberra jumped on board.

Bra Boys is a catchy name but already taken, how about "Bah Boys", from Kambah. If thats how you spell it, I could picture Rob being a vital member of the Bah Boy movement.

He is an insight from someone who use to a connection with the South Logan club and has some knowledge of the South Logan/Canberra arrangement.

From a junior perspective, the Souths Logan area has the strongest junior base in Brisbane. Juniors include Karmichael Hunt, Falou, Cam Smith and it was to try and tie this vast talent base to head down to Canberra.

Then there was the Meninga factor where Souths Logan were the perennial battlers who lacked money to keep any of their decent juniors or others players for that matter as other clubs would offer more money for players to change clubs. Meninga saw this as an opportunity to save the Souths Logan club by having them as a feeder club which would benefit both clubs - Canberra for the Brisbane junior base and Souths Logan for the ability to keep players and their juniors and become competitive.

Having a club in the NSW Cup would limit Canberra in gaining access to juniors. The move is a long term arrangement and only time will tell whether Canberra will wait that long for the next generation of superstar juniors to come their way oir whether the NRL changes competitions around which requires a rethink of the strategy.

Hope this explanation helps.

I was questioning the decision to only have the QLD Cup side as a feeder. I still would like some from of a presence in the NSW cup as the Raiders or a alliance with an existing club. I think the Raiders Cup needs to be used more to as it is a great comp that is not far off the others.

Bay you have some good points but What's Doing explained it and you continue to ask why. Every so often I log in here you are going off on another thing that bugs you about the club. Great you contacted the club years ago about NZ games and got a response. There you go if ask you'll get a reply. Go to the Tradies after a game and chat to the Management guys. They love it and are very happy to answer questions. Stop complaining in here and do something about it!!!
