Quote: nadera78 "I think the Broncos are dead at the end of this season, reshuffle or not.
In a general sense the game needs a genuine elite league that can pay players decent wages and provide good facilities and opportunities for recognition. Otherwise we are doomed to be nothing more than a feeder for the NRL and union. Spreading our limited resources around the second tier clubs does not bring about the changes we need, in fact it does the opposite.'"
Long term the strength of the SL lies in the league ladder below it. The lower leagues are where we have seen expansion. If you want sides like Sheffield, Skolars, Hemel, Crusaders etc to kick on and get to a position where they might have a go at SL then it is essential that they have a healthy competition to play in the meantime.
