"That said, Wellington United and Lower Hutt were both in desperate need of a lifeline which the Nix provided. Instead of apportioning all the blame on the Nix for decimating these clubs, perhaps the executives of these Clubs should also be responsible for letting both clubs get to the state where they needed to partner with the Nix"
This is the part that a lot of people seem to be forgetting. when the nix first came along they had no academy, no youth team and no ability to develop their youth. so they approached Cap football to see if they could play a youth team in the league - declined. So thinking out of the box they joined forces with clubs who were struggling which allowed their younger players time on the field whilst helping clubs out of the financial sharkpile. Yes, when the contract was done and dusted the top players left with them. But that's not solely on the Nix, ht eplayers chose not to stay with the clubs that had been poart of the agreement. now that cap footy have allowed the Nix to field their own teams within the leagues it all balances out. Sure theres a few scars around the place, but you can't blame just the nix for trying to get their youth teams into the league. Blame capital footbal for being shortsighed and declining the request in the first place. Atribute some balme to the players who chased Central league gametime over loyalty to the club that brought them through the ranks.
