And the joke is that the journos accept it as an even playing field or give little more than lip service to any problem that may exist there.
If they were serious reporters they would be on this like hound dogs. But no, journos like Rothfield, Kent, Massoud, Hooper, Webster and Weidler, just sit on their ass, accepting their big pay packets and saying mum regarding what they well know is a seriously corrupt and unfair system, preferring to follow Greenberg's lead and attack Manly, while giving teams like Cronulla and Parramatta a leg up, while other teams like Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney City plunder the so called equal teams, for their best players with fortunes that must be passing hands hidden in the guise of supposedly honest TBAs. The game is becoming a joke, the reporters are just public relation stooges for the League admin and generally Murdock's machinations.
