But seriously with the broncs fair enough the nsw teams have more history in nsw but without the inclusion of queenslands sides especially the broncs do you honestly think rugby league would be as popular australia wide as it is(origin rivalry)And with the success of them in a short period and the fact that two queensland teams playing eachother can attract more than 48000 fans to a round game speaks volumes of how important they are to the sport.so if your obviously only interested in a team and not the growth of the game itself take manly out of the league and see how much it affects the sport, it wont cause there's 10 others to pick up the slack.
