Quote: Cherry_Warrior "You don't have anything to crow about. You haven't won a trophy since the water wheel. Most teams spend up to the cap. Do you think having loads of money is going to be guaranteeing you knocking on the door year on year? Wire have multiple Challenge Cup trophies in their cabinet and have started doing what they should have 20 years ago. A huge investment in their youth product and now it's starting to bear fruit. They will get that GF win sooner rather than later because they have finally got their house in order. But you keep throwing money at over the top NRL players, see how far you get.'"
Having loads of money enables to get all the things off the pitch that impact on the pitch too. Backroom staff, ours is the best without a shadow. The ability to pay players off and transfers, we paid Reynolds off after a game and a half and Rhys Kennedy was cut.
You're right in saying if a bad overseas window happens it can set someone back .
You're paying credit to Wire for sorting their academy out and rightly so but we are doing the same, again, quietly behind the scenes. Leo Tennison remember the name for one..In a nutshell we're letting our results do the talking though.
Your attitude is stale and epitomises RL in this country, a bit of change and everyone's Iestyns fall out.
Saints have reputed money problems and is it no coincidence they've not been to a final in 2 years. Arguably their setup could be seen as being built on sand. It probably isn't that obvious mind.
