He answered that question about TV rights very poorly. When asked what will make the competition worth more in 2012 than it is now he answered: "We'll have a great club competition which we've already got."

He than also suggested the season would be shorter...

So, the networks will be falling over each other to pay [imore [/ifor fewer games of a competition that will not have expanded further since the last time they bought them?

We've already been told by Foxtel and others that we need greater geographical coverage yet it is ignored. Gallop's reason for not expanding "two more teams may lead to two teams dropping off"... Why? Not if they're in completely new and different markets they won't affect the others.

Luckily he's not the one who will making the decision anyway and he won't be in the job then - surely not.

i dont support losing any sydney clubs but illawarra and saints should never have merged

saints shouldve stayed at kogarah on their own, illawarra on their own and if anyone had to go it shouldve been the sharks.

they only got in on their own because they went to news ltd.

they gave them millions to improve their finances

Next year SL will move ahed of the NRL in terms of true expansion. It will have two expansion clubs (CC&Quins) to the NRL's one (Storm).

I wouldnt mind a few more "wellingtons" myself

central coast roosters

the way quins are going it might only be one.
