    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    The Warriors also have to compete against the other Aussie clubs for NZ best young players …seems odd that they wouldn’t do the same trying to acquire talent in Australia

    WA BEARS

    I think it’s much more likely the NRL will run the WA team initially

    WA BEARS

    what’s his name ? Or is this just another rumour ? The other investors were linked to old mate cash converters… they mightn’t want to be there now after he has been overlooked

    WA BEARS

    So what investors exactly ? Not cash converter guy?

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I agree with your overall point … but in respect of Barnett,,, He was an average player at best before he went over there at age 28 and found his best form ..there is no way you could describe him as “one of the best props” beforehand ..

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I think you are underselling them … it’s interesting that they went from the cellar to the Top 4 in one year after they joined in 2023 I can very much tell you that Barnett was your definition of a journeyman before he went over there … never a chance of a rep jersey …more like an anonymous...

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I said decades , not 10 years … I doubt there will be Nz3 prior to 2050…

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Unfortunately if you want to win ..then Aussie journeymen are a must … The likes of Metcalf, Ford, Barnett, Egan and others turned around that team last year

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Maybe 1 game won’t be enough then…. Should they play 2 in Wellington ? Wellington to Auckland - 640 km

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    And I know there is a hatred of Auckland by everyone else … The NZ A League teams seem to be concentrating pretty exclusively on the Auckland - Wellington wider rivalry … they don’t seem to care much about rivalries with the Aussie teams ..

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    It’s not crazy at all … its a 550k population base versus 150k in Dunedin … do you want NZ2 to be another Gold Coast Titans to the Brisbane Broncos…?

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I dont care what happens in Union and I doubt you do either…although there are other teams in NZ as well diluting any one teams population dominance Having a more even population split between the two teams sounds like a much more favourable outcome then a 4m/ 1m split

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    “Something like”…. ? its only around a million people on the South Island right? It would be helpful to the NRL and the new team if NZ2 could get Wellington behind them to at least try to close the gap …this would mean playing at least 1 game a year there I would assume Is the rivalry between...

    Any thoughts on how much the annual NRL plane charter might cost ?

    I doubt this is the end … Still extremely likely Perth will be Team 18

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    I’m sure they will do the market research on the name … just giving my personal preference ..but there was a bid this time around known as the Southern Orcas ? Im hoping they aren’t saving Orcas for the Wellington team … that’s likely decades away if Christchurch gets the second NZ team in...

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Latest interview from Moffett… Says they will “consider” to bid again ..and if they do they will “address” the license fee … I’m a little skeptical about this bid …also would prefer the Orcas name..

    if you ever see PVL walking around the streets …just yell some thing at him and he will get it done .. Singo and the half dozen Newtown Jets fans need to start stalking him

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Yeah … I can see they are in big trouble from over here! Even more reason the NRL should put a second team in over there ASAP..

    New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

    Strange NZ Rugby are supposedly chasing him then? Maybe the NPC could make use of him and try some cheap tickets because you could fire a shot gun into the seats and not be in danger of hitting anyone !
