We should be carrying Nick, Robbo and , especially, POS to and from games on golden thrones. To have three minor premierships in a row in the salary cap era with hardy any third party money is extraordinary. No other club will come close.

Originally posted by ccfc bondi View PostThe NRL has been happy to pat themselves on the back, pointing out the evenness of the comp as a result of salary cap. They ignore the fact that the original motivator was to stop incompetent administrators (of which there have been many!) spending money they don't have and sending their clubs broke. When the Roosters chairman got up at the AGM some years ago and said the salary cap should be raised substantially, he was shouted down by all the other clubs. Yet how many clubs have since been found to be cheating? It is sheer hypocrisy. They were accused of just wanting to buy good players, even though it has been shown - as most Roosters supporters would be well aware - that they punch above their weight in terms of player development. Players are still learning the game at 16-17. Commentators and supporters point the finger at Easts saying they have no juniors like it is their fault and continually accuse them of cheating the cap even when the facts obviously show otherwise. So yes, clubs SHOULD have an opportunity to keep champion teams together longer. This doesn't mean having no cap, but it does means raising it a lot.
Now the debate on The Flunker has heated up as a direct result. Robbo has paid for it but all will benefit. He even said that it's the only way to encourage debate and cause change.
That won't stop the idiots in the game from having a shot at him though.
Lastly to the myth John Grant. Firstly, it wasn't your place to comment like some poor man's Mike Baird. And, secondly, saying there are other channels when you know they are a waste of time is disingenuous. Time for you to leave.

I read an article on how Tedesco amongst others including JWH rejected big offers from the Raiders and that's why i used the nations capital as an example.
I'd probably still opt for France though
After 47 years in Bondi i'm considering a move to da Shire.

Coming from the person who called season 2014 and season 2015 a failure that is outrageous!
Alas, the goal is to win a premiership Braith Anasta's Wallet. Being minor premiers three years in a row is indeed extraordinary as I stated in my post. Sadly it is still a failed effort and, whilst his knowledge of a fraction of yours, Robbo also considers it the same.
Hopefully when we have Mini and Ricko in charge of the club we will win a string of them.
Thanks again for your assistance in setting us straight Braith Anasta's Wallet. Keep up your fine work.
