Quote: Snoopy "Yes I do and we arent going to get any quality players down here for an extra 10%. If players rent was paid by the club and kept seperate from the cap and we could just rent acomodation on a 'like for like' basis against say St Helens of Hudds it would help. However there are other social factors working against us like disrupting kids from school, wives have jobs up North which they dont want to give up, closeness to family support. All thigs which a transfer between Northern clubs don t get affected by. I dont blame them myself. Id be the same.'"



Oh so you want even more allowances ? There are clubs in the north who can't afford to pay the full cap and you still want more. Hmmm define level playing field

'afford' has got nothing to do with it. We're talking about cost of living being factored in, you wally.

IMO, the idea of a level playing field is a myth as far as professional sport is concerned.

Nice argument ,name calling . The fact is that London already have preferential treatment and now are asking for more in the shape of extra Aussies and exemption from relegation to allow you to grow, tell me , how many more years of preferential treatment do you need till you can stand on your own two feet. At 30 odd years old you are the oldest new club in world sport and a fecking joke

Let's look at facts, the Bradford Club have been members since the split in 1895, but The RFL still had to buy their ground in 2012 to keep the club afloat! is that not preferential treatment?

To be pedantic, Bradford Football Club aka Bradford (Park Avenue) were members of the NRU in 1895. Bradford Bulls were formed when Bradford FC joined the FA.

I was quite aware of that, I just didn't think it was needed in response to the poster's comments.

Really. Have a look at the NRL GF winners and finalists in recent years and see how many different names you see

I would say thats as level as sport with ever get.

So you agree with me.

NRL salary caps etc. do a good job (unless you're Melbourne). But look at just about any other professional competition and you'll see the winners coming repeatedly from a small group of clubs with gradual changes over a long period and newcomers occasionally joining the select group when somebody comes along with loadsamoney (e.g. Manchester City and Warrington Wolves),
