I'd probably get on the Cowboys if the Storm went under... always had a bit of a soft spot for them.

My point that your feeble mind didn't understand, is those other competitions (Premier League, NFL, NBL, etc) have relegation systems and relocations all the time. Yet they don't suffer less crowds long term or loss of revenue.
Any promotion/relegation sucessul in Australia?

As for the resources you mention...lol!!!!! Have you and your sister/wife ever actually left Sydney?
Umm, check my location, bonehead.
Like you know, got around, been to Melbourne, Brisbane, Townsville or NZ?
Yeah, been to all of 'em.
Solution; take your simple mind off this forum for half a second (which in the short time I have been here is abundantly clear you spend a scary amount of time on...I mean, shouldn't you be out living life or at worst, attending a local game you big Sydney League Supporter you?), go and see the set up of other non-Sydney clubs. With such little resources, it's strange that the non-Sydney clubs seem to be successful or at least competitive isn't it?:crazy:
First of all, I do sometimes attend local games - none of 'em in Sydney. Do ya get the picture yet f*cktard?

Yes, all the non Sydney clubs are sucessfull. The Sydney clubs must all be punted because they are not.

BTW, does that include the premiers, the club that equalled them as minor premiers, the other club that made it 3 from 4 Sydney teams in the top 4?



Perhaps, the NRL could force the QRL, NSWRL, ARL to merge to one identity (god forbid pool money and have better resources and more cash for junior level football nationwide) under the NRL banner and attempt a relegation system.
The NRL, being half run by the ARL?

Then I wouldn't have to watch the cripple fight that is Tigers vs. Souths or Sharks vs. Penrith. The under performers could be punted (only until all their fans, of which all you Sydneysiders tell us there is so many:lol:) get to games and support their club both on and off the field.
Yep, last years equal MP, and 2 recent premiers. Must punt them -they are from Sydney. :crazy:

Be warned however, if this were to occur, there would be 2 Sydney clubs lost and 2 QRL clubs in the big time by the second season.
Then we'd have to read even more trollop about how "out of state" teams get given handouts to be successful.:roll:
:lol: And where would these 2 QLD clubs play? Burleigh - the Titans feeder club, playing the Titans? So you'd have first grade playing second grade? Who would the Robina crowd support?

And is there an NRL worthy stadium in Toowoomba, Rocky or Cairns?

Dolphin Oval - how would that look with 30k in it?

Complete mental development didn't happen with you did it.

My next door neigbour and friend was a die hard Bears fan, who played the game until his early 20's. He will not even watch State of Origin now days. When we talk football we talk about the 80's and 90's our era as kids and adults and I can so hear his passion for the Bears and I know I would almost be the same as him.

Mark, sent him to http://www.mightybears.com/ , literally hundreds of threads re history, current season NSW Cup, CC Bears and much ranting about the great disaster!

9 teams in Sydney is too many.

I'm sick of seeing images on TV of half empty stadiums in Sydney and quite frankly it's embarrasing.


sydney is fine, teams wont move or fold. sydney teams still pretty much pull bigger crowds than most "rugby" clubs on earth. yes, we need to increase crowds and memberships, but the current teams will be here for a very long, long time to come. get used to it, stop bagging it and support it. we cant afford to lose hundreds of thousands of fans which is what would happen if a sydney team went. i used to think the same way as you, but came to realise each teams covers a major area of sydney, has the potential to get much bigger and adds something to the complete domination of sport that rugby league has here.

They certainly do. Precisely why I know how to write correct English and you don't.

They also go past year 6 in New South Wales as well, whether you turned up or not is another story.

I already know what QED means. I also know it has nothing at all to do with your ineptitude. That unfortunately for you, all comes down to that quagmire of eviscerated dog sh*t you call a brain.
YOUR an idiot!

No. The Northern Eagles taught me that. I'll die a Rugby League fan. Whether the Sea Eagles are at Brookvale, Kawana or dead. I can see myself outliving the club anyway, and I'm prepared to move on when it happens. The alternatives simple don't pique my interests or invoke my passions in the way RL do.

To be honest, the way things are going I wish it would happen to put me out of my misery.

Nope just sick of the type of performances as today....

That and Sharks fans attitudes... it was all Kimmorley's fault for all the years he was there... but now its Pomeroy apparently.
You guys were very hard on Kimmorley! It will be very interesting to see how that pans out at the end of the season.

By being even more stupid?
Yes. Is that too subtle?

I am working very hard on Locky!

So what is going on with the Sharkies Frailty? Your club is at 6s and 7s across the board!

You guys have imploded since G Bird.

You should be a Tigers fan. We have more scape goats than players.

I've always thought Kimmorley is a lot better than the Sharks (and quite frankly, 99% of RL) fans give him credit for.

I'd take him for sure. I am very conservative though. Benji needs to produce for a good 5 in a row as far as I am concerned.

On his past record, more than one good game is required by far. I thought he was Ok in the first half of the first game myself.
