The Bulldogs hadnt won anything, and if they had i'm sure they would have had it taken away...
Melbourne is effectively owned by the league... if they were going to do a job on anyone, it wouldnt have been the Storm.. They quite simply got what they deserved...
You Queenslanders seem to think that we in Sydney just get everything we want... try telling that to a Steelers supporter, or someone from Balmain or the Western suburbs... not to mention the Bears... South Sydney had to take the league to court, ffs...
You just have the shits because we get the Grand Final... And dont use the other leagues' as an example, because the AFL will never move their GF from the MCG, and the A-League doesnt have a 'spiritual home' so they can do whatever they want...
The reality is NSWRL was the premier rugby league competition in Australia for nearly 100 years, and Brisbane had to join it before QRL was taken seriously.... Sydney is the home of Rugby League whether you like it or not...
I am praying that Brisbane get a second team, then you'll all begin to understand the issues that we have to face down here... The Broncos effectively have an entire state to draw on and still only have about 1000 ticketed members more than the Dragons, Souths, and the Bulldogs... That's 30,000 members accross three clubs in one city... then you can add Penrith, Cronulla, the Tigers, Manly, the Roosters, who all have at least 3 or 4 thousand mebers..... what's gonna happen when your shitty 10,000 is split in two? not to mention the sponsors dollars...

You beat me to it Jason... bloody good post that
