Stalled and stagnant Sydney clubs

[Perth Red]

adding another heartland club after 15 years largely because they felt safe as the club had a pokie den isn’t really expansion! it’s safe consolidation of a RL market already held. All we’ve heard for well over a decade is no expansion due to player depth and broken arse clubs.

Well guess that’s no longer the case then is it ?

 

[AdelaideSharky]

It’s holding back expansion ?

they literally just added that second Brisbane club that everyone has been talking about for 20 years and will be adding team 18 maybe in 2025

The nrl has increased funding to clubs by 35 million pa. So basically no club is ever going to move now all their finances are set. That’s just the reality now

Agreed. The only expansion that will come now is proper expansion in fresh new expansion franchises.

This American style fantasy of relocating clubs simply won't wash and won't work.

WB, PR is just salty that Perth wasn't considered.

He won't stop whingeing and deathriding the existing clubs until the NRL gives him his precious Perth team.

I think he’s so used to deathriding the nrl even if they got a team he would still be negative as he’s so used to it now

Nah it will come next year when we are pulling 10k at Parra

Stadium rebuild period sucks

my views on the way the game is run are only partially clouded by lack of expansion into perth. First and foremost I’m a fan of the game and want to see it reach its full potential.

will be worth it in the long run!

Why not listen to fans of the Australian game that know more about it than you ?

imagine if an Aussie soccer fan went onto a forum about the premier league and tried to tell them there were too many teams in London.

How can you follow the game from Perth ? It’s a rugby league desert.

Haha, now whose showing their ignorance? NRLWA celebrates its 75th anniversary this year. As for following the game, local comp, sg ball, kayo, HKRTV and ch9 when I must. Usually 3-5 nrl games a year in perth or when I’m over East. Oh and this thing called the Internet, it’s not hard to follow rugby league from any corner of the planet in the 21st century lol.

for a city of over 5 mill that is saturated by rugby league you sure dont show It in club attendances, membership or even tv audience.

Exact reason why Perth doesn't need a team

And why the Bears would be a success

Exact readon why Perth doesn't need a team

And Newtown and glebe and Ipswich and Logan. Keep it local, you know that’s the way the world of sport is going lol.

imagine there was an afl fan from Newcastle (australia) going onto afl forums and telling them they should kill off some Melbourne teams for a Newcastle afl team.

how do you think they would be perceived.

That is one of the most ridiculous posts I have seen for a while. You have heard of the Internet and Pay TV/streaming services right?
