Quite a topic, thought there would be some discussion on this already. Read with great interest this article in Sunday Tele Sydney,aboriginies make up 50% of all senior registered players in NSW, now sick of the "racist elements" within the CRL, now want to form a "rebel" league starting in 07(may be 08?) with former indigeneous clubs that have been expelled from CRL in the past to make up some of what looks to be a strong 14 team comp for NW NSW.... Cmon how many opinions are there usually on this board about NRL?How about some grass roots opinions??CRL are shirting themselves, could spell the end of Country RL if its not stopped, says CRL chief.
