What is being said then is that the world club challenge is bigger than the rest of the British game.
There are a couple of clubs who could spend more but what would happen to the level of competition week in week out over here.
The big spenders would simply clean up each year making it a no contest for the majority of the rest of the clubs.
Who would they spend it on anyway.
It would have to be the so called "Big name" Aussies.
How many of these have we seen going back years that have not been that big anyway, some even going back with the reputations hardly intact.
The Aussie obsession is a scurge on our game ,why do we keep worrying about them when we need to focuss on our own game.
