FRENCH POACHING WORSE THAN SUPER LEAGUE
People are saying that the french are worse than the super league at poaching NRL players.
And will be more of a threat than the super league.
Matty John thinks the NRL is now a springboard for bigger and better things.
French rugby union.
More money.
The European rugby clubs are poaching league players known for their attacking flair who could fit easily into a rugby back line combination or possibly add impact from the back row.
The potential "poaching" of wanted players includes:
Storm sensations Greg Inglis, Billy Slater, Cooper Cronk, Israel Folau
Also:
North Queensland's Jonathan Thurston
Manly's Brett Stewart
And the Roosters' Willie Mason
How can the NRL match overseas clubs dollar for dollar?

But look at things this way. Folau leaves the storm cause his family is in Brisbane. What happens if Storm had a player like Folau who'se family is in Melbourne?
They'd have a champion player for a good 10-13 years or so. Problem solved.
The storm have heaps of depth to cover Folau. No offence to Folau, he's a gun player.
Yeah I reckon Storm a real go for the title this year!
