Would never happen. You cut clubs and you will be losing fans, not gaining them.
How many people would simply turn to another club if their club vanished?
I know I wouldn't.
What are you going to do? Follow AFL?

Given the damage our band has just suffered with gas and sbw going lets go and piss off thousands and thousands of people who actually do love and support the game.
People talk about it would mean more money if there was less clubs. Rubbish. Who says that say that bloke who props up the eagles would give money to league if we killed them off? Would Rusty invest in league if we cut souths?
Why ruin your best asset in this war? If league loses ownership of sydney then they are very f**ked.
I like anyone else, wants to see League prosper.
That said, Souths supporters can certainly tell you what it is like when your team is cut.
I am a Souths supporter first and foremost, my club is cut/merged/re-located and it is no longer Souths.
No longer Souths for me means that I no longer have a team, so why am I going to buy a season pass each year or stay a member?
That is how it is, like it or lump it.
Maybe if some of you whingers calling for teams to be culled actually went to games or financially got behind your teams rather than typing on here like internet heroes, I may listen.
Until then, f**k off with your AFL driven propoganda.
Cheers
.So if you want to increase crowds, drop 2 Sydney teams ?
:roll:
What if a team does not perform well in a season due to injuries do they deserve to be dropped from the draw?
The problem is with the game itself, if you want to draw crowds improve your product.
Rugby League has become a boring game, its all about money NO PASSION.
.
tv ratings are at all time high...people love the game
crowds are actually on up as well...its just playing at ANZ which makes it look crap
Yeah, believe it or not instead of "boring" game I was going to put "TV game"
I enjoy watching every team play as long its a tough game. But working 6 days 7 til 7 and occasionally the Sunday work as well its hard to attend.
Only reason I have foxtel is for NRL games, would be nice if they had a NRL only package.
AFL driven propaganda? Are you serious?
Telling people to get to games. Did you see the crowd at Newcastle yesterday? If Sydney teams could get crowds like that we wouldn't have this problem.
Rugby League's biggest comp (the NRL) started back in the 1900s as a Sydney-based comp. Gradually we've been getting more teams in the comp - Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, NZ, Nth Qld, Titans, Illawarra, Knights etc... and teams that failed such as Adelaide, Perth, South Qld, hunter etc... basically, it started in Sydney. ALL SYDNEY TEAMS WHO ARE IN THE COMP NOW DESERVE TO BE IN THE COMP!!!I was watching the footy show on thursday and turvey mortimer said something which caught my attention. He said "we can't deny that there isn't a problem in Sydney" or something along those lines.
Anyway, this got me thinking, cause I have being denying for a while that there is a problem for the past few months and now I have realised that there is. We can't keep Rugby League as a surburban game that gets piss poor crowds.
We need all Sydney clubs to have certain criteria that they have to fulfill otherwise they can f**k off and die/re-locate/merge/go to NSW Cup.
/end rant.
