If the sharks folded and a new team was created anywhere, surely they would need to recruit NRL standard players, most of which would come from the sharks as they would all be out of contract?
No point putting the youngsters in because they would lose every week (a bit like the sharks i suppose
), which would hinder growth.
Without knowing much about the area, i'd have thought Brisbane being the biggest city in the biggest rugby league in the world should be able to handle more than one team? and the Derby created would be a big game!
Relocating may put off supporters though, if a team from Yorkshire relocated over to Lancashire few of the locals would support them. If a new team was created with a lot of players from Yorkshire then the support would be there.
