[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 870443, member: 20605"] 100% on both of these In the threads on the axing of one Aussie franchise, I have been at pains to point out what a really bad decision it was to cut the Force instead of the Rebels Western Australia is a growth area for rugby. There are only two AFL teams, one A-League (football) team there. Most importantly, there is NO NRL Team in WA. Some of WA's home grown talent has already made it to the Wallabies However, Victoria is fully saturated with professional code; one NRL team, two A-League teams 10 AFL teams and 15 VFL teams. There is no room left in Melbourne to develop the game. Its a saturated market. [/QUOTE]
