Quote: lionarmour87 "Storm are acknowledged as the best side in world RL and its interesting because they are an expansion club . I wonder have they got a decent crowd average compared with the clubs in the traditional RL areas ?'"
And on the expansion point, this is something I've mentioned a few times to those who question expansion teams relying on imports and not adding value because there are no hometown players.... In Melbourne's entire history, they've only had 1 player from the entire Victoria State, let alone Melbourne as a city to play for them. It's not about new players coming from that area (though that should happen in time).
