Thurston backs WA Reds

[Perth Red]

We can now add Jonathon Thurston to the long list of players, coaches, CEOs and ex stars who see a Perth team makes most sense:

Thurston said his preference was in the west. ''I don't think another team in Queensland would really work,'' the Cowboys halfback said. ''With the timeslots for Fox Sports and everything, my personal thinking is Perth. The 7.30pm game over there would be telecast here live at 9.30pm, so they could play back-to-back live games on it.''

Not really because he backs your bid though. I mean come on, he doesn't think a Queensland team will work BECAUSE of TV. Thats their biggest draw card.
