The Haguarias are probably the most successful.
of this expansion you know they lost the final in Christchurch and they will probably be able to get the majority of the Argentinian teams by the back end of Argentinian players to play internationals with them being in that in that team but in saying that with them being able to play consistently all the time it probably um dampened them in the back end of the year when they're playing internationals with too much footy and then you know the rebels who
But with Australia for a very long time, a great supporting city, but they weren't able to get it right because they weren't having success.
And even the Southern Kings, another one in the South African league.
So, yeah, it is difficult, Ross.
And, you know, I think success is probably a big part of that.
And, you know, unfortunately, those teams weren't able to get the job done when they had the opportunities, unfortunately.
Yeah, there is.
But I think also, if you kind of do look at arty, and I think, you know, no different from a player, I think if you have a successful team and you're enjoying and you're winning games and you're able to be in semifinals and quarterfinals and to be in those kind of situations, then I think, yes, money is important, but actually that probably makes the player more happy.
I think, for example, my money was never really a big thing for me.
Like it was being able to, okay, how can I be able to be in a team that I'm enjoying, that I'm learning, that I'm growing and I'm winning?
and you know money it becomes a little bit secondary and now depending on what players are and what their kind of motivations are i'm not too sure but i can imagine if there was success like we kind of saw with arty severe in that group and been able to you know get signings here and there let's say like an antoil and a brown or a sean steven who has that kind of mona pacific or they um the
polynesian heritage you're picking those guys within that group that's going really well then i think you're going to get players especially the young group are going to be like okay we're in here for a bigger bigger purpose than just money we had to be able to play for our people being able to win and be able to put it on a on a world stage so um unfortunately at this stage you probably look bar the one you and arty did come
they just haven't had a lot of success.
So if you're a player, you're not winning, you know, you're not winning games, I need to be able to go somewhere else where I can win games.
And you see, like, I'll tell Mufalo, Orch was a choice that he wanted to go on the back of a really good season with Moana, but it's really hard for players to want to stay if you're not having success.
Money is important to be able to try and have a future and being able to have that kind of no pressure of money, but
yeah i think you know whoever hopefully someone does come and i think having a really good understanding of the heritage and the culture of mana pacifica and the people as well you know whether that's um you know samuel and tongan or whoever whatever kind of heritage with the pacific island being able to invest that'd be great because they've got a really good understanding around what that would look like but um i think someone needs to be brave and be able to give them opportunity and i think you know for moana fans you know being able to really show them what can you do to help them has been able to show out and go to their games
to be able to to be able to show them that they do care and being able to i guess have a visual picture that you are supporting the team and i guess if you are an investor you're seeing fans you're seeing a possibility of being able to grab money from that because people are invested to go watch but um yeah a little bit of a tricky situation right now but yeah that might be an option hopefully in the future
Credibility and probably money is the biggest thing in and around that.
