Sue the Arse off the storm, we can counter-Sue the NRL for the Loss of income from the pathetic TV deals we have had with since the Storm started.
Are you kidding me? Firstly, the Storm shouldn't even be in the competition. Here's just a few reasons off the top of my head....
1) They were introduced when we were trying to cut 22 teams down to 14.
2) They were the golden handshake to Ribot for stabbing all and sundry in the back during Pooper League.
3) They won the comp in 1999 and no one in Melbourne cared.
4) They are subject to a media boycott, amazingly by News Ltd newspapers when the club is owned by News Ltd.
5) They are subject to television boycott, protection AFL, you'll only see them at 1am.
6) The town is so dead against anything except AFL that Rugby Union went to Perth before Melbourne.
7) Because News Ltd now own the Storm (conflict of interest considering News Ltd run the game)
8) Because they won the competition again and no one cared.
9) Because they have the 3rd worst crowds in the NRL
10) Because they lose millions every year, last year was a 4.5 million dollar loss.
11) Because they are the only team in the NRL that can have over 9 rep players and still only have a minor breach to the cap
12) And the 12 reason they shouldn't be in the competition, is because they are the only team in the NRL that has broken the cap every single year it's been introduced.
What happened when they did every year? Minor ($70,000 to $145,000 fine) which Rupert took from his front left pocket (Storm pocket) and put in his back right pocket (NRL Pocket).
The Storm are the joke of the league....
And my second point is I find it amusing that the NRL Judicary (News Ltd owned) is going to sue the Storm (News Ltd owned). Geez, this isn't a stunt to sell papers now is it.........
