      If they are based here for next season how will they afford it??- Ron Massey cup is basically a 4th grade comp and players wouldn't be paid that much and some maybe nothing to play?
      They will pay the transportation costs which wont amount to much in any case, we will organise accomodation and fund that, again not that expensive really. Clubs like Penrith, Parramatta and the broncos spend millions on their own junior clubs. Obviously we dont have that sort of expense given our tiny junior base,so we improvise elsewhere.most of these guys wont b sitting around chewing their fingernails between games,employment will be sourced from sponsors etc. They will also earn a few hundred a game. For the majority of these players they will be earning more than they were at home while being given the opportunity of a lifetime.
