Would you care if the club was absorbed by another club?

No need to merge again, just sell it to someone with passion and $$$ to pump into the club.
We will never get off the bottom while being owned by tightwad HBG No big name players come to our club cause we are run like peasants (Luia came for big money & did not have to move home).
We have changed coaches and players for years with the same result, HBG can't or won't provide the proper funding to run an NRL club. Time to change ownership or stay at the bottom forever. And what club in any professional sport appoints a coach with zero experience.

My main love this past decade has become my NFL team … it’s a shame in one way because any potential success that team has can only be experienced very remotely …

Yep, I’m heading to the US in November to watch my first NFL game … I’m pumped.

Naturally my interest in NRL dies around this time of year as the NFL pre season kicks in. Probably watch max 1-2 NRL. games a weekend. I find it hard to be invested when your own team is dog shit

Yeah ..I’m a big fan of the game … been over there about 4-5 times to see games …Im sure you will enjoy the experience 👍
 
Idk if the agreement is still in place, but I remember when we first merged, it was stated, because we made that sacrifice, we would never have to again. Regardless, whether thread was made out of a joke or just feeling emotional, it’s not going to happen. Nor are we going to get kicked out. You don’t get kicked out of competitions for being perennial losers. It’s revenue streams, and despite us coming in last in that report, we are hardly on deaths door financially. So don’t worry, we have a lifetime of heartache still to go. You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave *cue solo*

The financial list thing is not as bad as the media spin might seem ( shocking I know…) … they are not that far behind regular semi finalist like the Sharks and Manly …like 5-7 percent or so …. which indicates to me that they have considerably more potential than they do given the worst in 50 year run the WT are having …

Any moderate mid table level of “success” for 2-3 years and those issues go away quick …but of course here we still wait for that to happen …

Many many seasons at the bottom as well .
The issue is talent distribution in the nrl . It’s more akin to Premier League than us sports . The bottom clubs being feed teams for the top 6 .
I’m hoping that when the teams go to 20 , that 2 conferences are created / 4 divisions of 5 . Only then do I see the league finding parity . Or trading players …… we could have traded Galvin and TDs and got draft picks back/ players .

What’s the bet we finally get things together with a class squad, things are ticking along nicely, and then the NRL change the entire structure and level the playing field for everyone.
