It's just my opinion and I hate to disagree with you but I think nz at the moment would struggle to maintain 2 nrl teams let alone 3. It sounds a great idea after the win last night and with the fantastic 30 degree weather we're having at the moment but when it's the middle of winter in the main centres other than Auckland (and Chch and Wellington are the only other possibilities) I think it would be a struggle. I noticed the Wellington Phoenix gate crumbled to just over 5000 last night and that just 4 months after nz returned home the only unbeaten team in the World Cup. They are a fickle lot in the capital. I think a 2nd nrl team at the present time would end in tears.
