Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.
If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Quote ="DGM"Bang on Francis.
Back in those days of Galea, Vella, Newton etc, the gap between the SL & NRL cap was way smaller than it is now, making it much easier to sign players. Even looking at the crop FC brought over for 2016 (Fonua, Pritchard, Manu & Tuimavave), it'd be impossible to get that same value for money now. In some cases, players can earn more playing 2nd tier in Aus than they can in SL.
Clubs now have to be much more savvy in their recruitment & retention, or throw money around in transfer fees. I think the younger players Rovers have recruited have been decent, like Mulhern, Minns, Oakes, Atkin etc, mixed in with a couple of promising academy products.
The issue is the average Joe contingent like Lee, Tickle, Jewitt, Clarkson, Scruton etc, which were necessary to enable Rovers to get back up and then to stay up. The OP is absolutely ridiculous in their expectations as it's quite clear Rovers are trying to build something much more longer ">term.'"
Jesus, some modicum of sense from an FC fan. I need to sit down.

Fair point.
I like their assumption that players are that easy and free to get rid of whilst under contract, like it's all one big fantasy league game. | | |
