    ARLC to meet expansion bidders.

    Gee this QLD bid stuff has a bit of everything: Redcliffe - The suburban team looking to finally get their big break and reprsenting a small peninsula of Brisbane. (Compartive to the Sea Eagles) Bombers - The Cookie-cutter, all show and no substance bid that looks to mirror the NRL outfit they...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    Although the 'Thunder" is one of their junior clubs in VIC NRL.

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    Wouldn't surprise me. Thier junior men's team in the NSW comp is called the Thunderbolts. I would think that the Storm would still call their women's team the Storm too though. It's fairly gender neautral (if you ignore/get rid of Storm Guy or make a Storm Girl on the logo.)

    Melbourne Storm look to also be putting in a bid for when the NRLW expands: https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/10/10/new-$12m-facility-to-boost-storms-nrlw-bid/

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    I'm saying I picked this happening. I said this in the Expansion Team Names thread on Monday having never seen the article you posted...... I’m putting a vote in for Port Brisbane Destroyers. Based out of East Brisbane/Bulimba/Carindale but playing solely out of Suncorp. Still attached to...

    Easts Tigers Enter Expansion Race

    Hate to say it but I hate the look of it. Green & Orange are 2 colours that really don't mash well. Ithink you'd need to use predomiantly green & black with orange & white flourishes. Alternate is a mainly white & green with black and orange flourishes. Otherwise I'd sooner see them in green &...

    ARLC to meet expansion bidders.

    I Had this one in the expansion team names thread. Could always change jets to hornets. The hornets do have some standing in Brisbane as the RAAF fly them out of Amberley (West of Brisbane). They are also seen flying along the Brisbane River during the River Fire spectacle. Wouldn't be too far...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    I did. You said it would be embarrassing for the Roosters women's team to play in a large new stadium because it would look empty, but you said Parra has a new stadium and therefore justifies having a women's team.... Wouldn't the crowd also look pretty average at Bankwest for a women's game...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    This is what I mean! Cast the net wide and you have the potential to catch more. Penrith would be the location to gain the women in the Greater West. Going by T-boon’s argument, the women in Parra, Balmain, Sydney, North Sydney, etc. could all easily access the city by a larger array of public...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    Ok, and that is your opinion. You are entitled to it as am I with mine. My NRLW competition make-up is a concept only... it doesn’t have to take everything into account. If it did, I’d probably be running the NRL. Simple fact is I chose one team to represent the west and it wasn’t the team you...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    Unfortunely I left Parra out in favour of Penrith just for the further reach out west. It was a toss of the coin though. I have also left out Manly or North Sydney to avoid the over saturation of the Sydney market, thus avoiding the issue the men's game already has. Essentially I took the...

    Expansion of the Women's Competition

    Absolutely agree! We don't need every current NRL Club getting a women's team as well. You'e right that it would only be problematic in the long run. I think a few key areas within Sydney to cover the main NSW catchment when the talent is abundantly available, and the rest should be across the...

    17 teams and a bye every week

    Freudian slip perhaps?

    ARLC to meet expansion bidders.

    To be fair, these are national figures and doesn't specify people in Brisbane watching Brisbane. It also doesn't account for the fact that Brisbane predominantly get the better time slot most weeks which is that 7:30/8pm Friday time slot. Of course more people are going to view that game. It...
