Quote: Him "If the league is getting closer and closer (and I doubt anyone could argue it’s not) at some point the debate over P&R must be had again.
I’ve never agreed with P&R in RL as I don’t think we have the clubs to sustain it like football does. I think the NRL has shown the way to develop clubs.
But I kind of understood the rationale behind relegating the weakest club when that club was clearly weak and there was no or little loss to the sport. However if, at some point, all SL clubs are at roughly the same level on the field do we want to be weakening their development by relegating the club who is probably last due to injuries or a bit of bad luck.'"
Either way,we should be encouraging the clubs in the lower leagues to strengthen and prosper to enter the promise land. So get rid of that selfish attitude.
