This has been covered before but do believe it warrants been brought up again. I am a avid football fan and only want our teams to do well but I was in a strange position on Sunday watching the Team Wellington game.
I was there to support T/W and hoping they would make it through to the final but looking at the squad that took the field their was only 3 players that played their winter football in Wellington - Henry, Louis and Cole and the subs that played there was only Adam.
It does get you thinking about how is this a Team from Wellington and how does this help develop our local players, how much does this all cost flying in players from out of the region? How do you expect crouds to turn to support our team?
Yes I know there is a bigger picture with the O league but strongly believe there should be a limit on how many non locals you can have in your match day squad.
Not sure if this is across all franchises or just ours? Just my thoughts!
