Description
Episode 5 - The Steelers Strike Back
The tide has turned in the battle for the South. The Men of Steel march on and nothing will stop them from glory.....or will it?
In this episode of the NRL Irrational Mergers mini series I am joined by Nathan (Fox NRL celebrity). The year is 1998, the newly formed NRL set out to reduce clubs to reach the magic number of 14 by 2000. The criteria is set and the 12 Sydney and Illawarra clubs are offered $8M and other exemptions to make mergers happen. We examine the possible choices for merger partners for the Steelers.
