I totally agree with you. Any ground made before 2000 needs to be scrapped. Lets get into the 21st century. They want to enter the US Market but many of the grounds are garbage. It's mainly the Sydney teams with old grounds. Cowboys, Broncos, Knights, Storm, Raiders etc all have stadiums.

Dolphins have a 19th century ground but mostly play at Suncorp.

The Roosters represent Sydney and no other team does.

The Roosters represent Sydney and no other team does. Will always be Eastern Suburbs only. Remember Bulldogs and Tigers being called Sydney.

They arent the Eastern Suburbs Roosters any longer. They are the Sydney Roosters.

I think there are too many teams from Sydney. Make it a more international game.

I don't think the future is there and these teams play at suburban grounds with small crowds. The game is dead in Sydney.

It will not happen but Sydney should only have 3 teams. Eels, Roosters and pull the other out of a hat, just make sure it isnt the Wests Tigers.

That was talked about in 1994 when super league was first mentioned. There were going to only be 4 Sydney teams, of course representing North, South, East and West. Remember reading the newspaper.

Having said forget about West Tigers that doesnt mean the Magpies as a stand alone team.

I always had a bit of a soft spot for the Magpies but have never felt anything for that merger.
