Quote: Stormin' Robin "I agree, BUT WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING TO COME FROM????

Sydney clubs are struggling with the new pokie tax. Parra, Wests, Canterbury even Penrith with their hundred million dollar Leagues club turnover are crying poor. St George couldn't come up with a third party sponsor to pay 100K a year to keep Gasnier. Even your Sea Eagles are tight for cash and Max pays plenty for them.

We do not have billionaires falling over themselves to give out money hand over fist. Rusty paid 3 million for 75% of the Bunnies with the fan's approval - so the Rabbits fans only think their club is worth 4 million.

I don't know what the answer is, but open slather isn't it. Open the cheque books, and we'll have a four team comp in next to no time.'"


Clubs like Brisbane, Storm, Titans, Cowboys and Warriors are currently in a good position. Unfortunately Sydney clubs have been struggling prior to poker tax, but now in a worse position due to this tax. Eventually the Sydney teams will have no choice, but to merge to survive. This may be a bad thing in the short term, but would be healthy for the game in the long term.
Currently sponsors associated to the club are restricted in paying players. Only 3rd party sponsors not associated to the club can sponsor players. Why would a 3rd parties not associated to the club want to sponsor players? This restriction needs to be lifted to allow sponsors associated to clubs to also sponsor players.
The answer is no more salary cap and let the teams pay what they can afford. Successful teams will find ways to bring in the money.
Its worked for soccer and now working for rugby. Why not go for it with RL?

winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11 //www.dragons.com.au/shop/index.asp //dragons.leagueunlimited.com/ //www.showroom.com.au/dragons/drag ... 1intro.htm:34439.jpg

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



Quote: fredie "alot of fans care
That's the problem with fans - they expect the players to be as loyal to their team as they are.

Hypocritical - if most fans were offered double monies to swop jobs there response would be "When do I start" yet they call players for the exact same thing.

The sooner fans think of players as employees the better
