I was deadly serious and all! I'm sick of SL clubs bringing in over the hill Aussies who time and time again prove themselves to be in search of a holiday. Too often they fill pivotal positions where we should be nurturing our own people.

No you won't. It's just the law of averages that he came up with a good idea (regarding overseas players older than 27). Rest easy. It was a fluke.

This whole 69 page thread has reminded me of something a famous Welsh rugby player who played RL for a while (for the money) once said at my local RFC- 'I think Union and League fans have alot in common. They are both obsessed with Union.'
