Where will the new proposal leave the Jets?

[Bluebag]

If the new proposal regarding the new boundaries is approved does this mean that we will not be able to sign players from a club where we have made an investment. We own Parkes leagues club, are a sponsor (via the Jets Sports Club) and are committed to helping Parkes out in many ways, players etc.

If this area is handed over to an NRL club then if we help Parkes juniors looking for a chance to go further then we cannot sign them as we are affiliated with the Sharks and this is not their area.

While most NRL clubs plunder and pillage country football very few send them players to help out during the year Newtown does so will we be affected.

Good point. We are a smaller example opf what Brisbane and the Cowboys must feel. Submissions should be made to the NRL.

It was amusing to read Manly get Group 14 but they ceased to exist several years ago and the castlereagh cup which is second division one team towns no lower grades at all.

Other groups were not listed and some others had ceased as well.

So, the way I read it, Parra gets Group 11 and therefore Parkes. Aren't we lucky! Denis Fitzgerald's always been so reasonable and generous...


...NOT!
