Surely your not comparing the recruiting that Avenel have done to the rumoured spend fest taking place at VT and to a lesser extent Murch? If you are one of us is very poorly informed.Nearly always see the logic of your suggestions JC (do you need to change your ndp!!!) The only problem is that clubs want success now & don't plan for the next five years. Most clubs that are successful have strong juniors, good coaches & then top up with smart & skilled players. If they miss the finals then they don't try to buy a flag the next year. Many have tried to buy a flag but 1% succeed and even some of these then go broke & lose players in following years. Dumb clubs recruit players only after cash & many leave after one year. What works. Definitely not the points. The simple fact is that DISTRICT must pay players but smart clubs have strong culture & generally don't pay excessive $$$. My $50000 man is not the coach but merely arrives on Sat!!!Dumb clubs do. Perhaps time to move onto 2012. It will be very interesting to see how VT & Murch & Avenel ( a club with a very strong culture in the 80's) will compete with Lanky & Stanhope.
