The problem being, WA does not yet have enough players at the required level.
NRC players from other states is all well and good, but what happens once they get good enough to play super rugby? They usually get snaffled up and taken back to the East Coast.
We've spent many years watching them use Perth as a place to get game time, then bugger off back East.
This current system seems to work.
It is by no means what I want in the long term, as WA players are the final wish.
It's the best option for WA retaining players at the moment.
