    Western Melbourne - NRL Expansion (2nd Victorian Team)

    Yes, CAS blue vs CAS white. CAS v VIC would've been good, not sure why they selected this format. Yeah it's good to see a number of Vics coming through the ranks. And the NRL can defo be stingy when it comes to interstate development at grassroots level. Storm didn't get their first SG ball...

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I don't mind the idea of NZ2 but I find it ironic how it seems to be the aussies telling the kiwis what's what lol. Bare in mind the Warriors are NZ's national rugby league team. They've had 2 and a half years away from their home in Aotearoa, been in existence for almost 30 years and since...

    You've made it abundantly clear where you stand on Melb2, not that anyone asked in the first place. Just let us have fun over here ok?

    Western Melbourne - NRL Expansion (2nd Victorian Team)

    It would definitely strengthen the case for a second Melbourne team. You'd immediately double the market size to over 2.5m in population, which would rank it above Brisbane by that metric. The only concern I'd have hypothetically is would the Storm be willing to concede the Northern suburbs...

    Western Melbourne - NRL Expansion (2nd Victorian Team)

    Well it's more than just a dirt road that some proclaimed lol The broader picture is that the precinct is being developed. It's not much atm but it's progress, and I'll take whatever I can get haha. Knowing the financial position of WUFC, the Wyndham City Council would have to be open to the...

    Brisbane Tigers make their bid to be 18th team

    You'll probably be waiting a long-time before that happens considering the Storm have been a finals team since 2003. 20 straight years. On top of that, while a lot of outsiders would've expected the game in Victoria to be a lot further ahead by now, we're now finally starting to see that surge...

    Brisbane Tigers make their bid to be 18th team

    This was for thursday's game with the Storm. Significant increase in viewership, although far from the six figures. 173k NSW, 168k QLD, 58k VIC.

    Brisbane Tigers make their bid to be 18th team

    Proof? Plus as Perth Red eluded to, doesn't matter where viewership comes from. Storm brings eyeballs to the TVs and pulled 16k attendance last Thursday night.
