I think adding to this the big loss will be the combo of Badger - Hayward - Junior & Cheese (if its true) all starters and a team we've built to where we are now for proudness in both jumper and individuals. I wonder if the ARU will help out retain some of these players or just keep giving the hand outs to the 3 mighties on the east coast.
