Here in QLD club owners the Bakrie Group are seen as investing very little in the Roar, and the club just treading water since the Roarcelona glory days and packed 55,000 Grand Final sell outs. Isn't alot of positive noise about the club.

And SE QLD (Gold Coast to Sunshine Coast where I am) has a popn of 4M within a 3 hour drive. A bit like the Nix they have a large catchment virtually to themselves. Apparently alot of their Academy staff have left, and young QLD kids now look to other ALM clubs. Ross Aloisi has been told he can only sign 3 visa players.

The Nix won't be the only club, to curb spending if that's how it transpires.
