Where is @final say @Wb1234 and @Matt_CBY who were talking absolute shit yesterday about how Bears had taken the Perth licence and the NRL had no interest in involving anyone else.

Maybe next time don't act like you are insiders when all you did was read some article.

So now you believe News limited articles. That’s an interesting twist.

There is nothing in the article about the Jets today that has changed my opinion. Looks like a ploy from the Cumins bid to stay relevant as PVL isn’t speaking to them.

“Talks have been held with both former top flight clubs, although an alliance with the Bears has the support of ARL Commission chair Peter V’landys as the game looks to revive a latent supporter base and one of the most powerful brands in the game.

While the Bears link has dominated talk there is some reluctance at the Western Australian government level to join forces with North Sydney. Instead, Newtown have been quietly building their own case in the background and have forged strong relationships with the powerbrokers in Western Australia.”

pvl vs wa govt there can be only one winner

so obviously this story was likely leaked by Cummins to stay relevant

I have already told you this

The Bears have a junior development program though.

What you would do is have the Perth juniors teams running along side that and are getting somewhere.

Doesn't have to be the Bears but an East Coast side as a partnership so Perth NRL side has a say in coaches etc.

Then you double the potential player pool and attract better fringe guys
Whats needed is pathways set up in Perth and a feeder club in the NSW or QLD cup. Concentrate your resources into one system.
Wests tigers have 2 pathways and haven't really produced results.

Because it’s a huge growth coridoor where future population will go just like the northern coridoor is a huge growth coridoor which the dolphins will exploit
And again where will they play? We don't need small clubs playing out of small stadiums ala sydney and kayo for that matter too.
Suncorp stadium is where brisbane nrl should be played because every brisbane team should be big enough for a stadium like that.
Everyone in brisbane and it's surrounds can get to suncorp.

If it's a huge growth corridor in the future then revisit it in the future once the growth has happened.

From the sounds of the article, the Bears’ ‘non-negotiables’ and approach to negotiations could result in them being left at the altar again. Failing a link-up with another bid to join the NRL as NZ2, QLD5 etc, It’ll likely mean yet more attempts to get into the NRL, more false hopes and false dawns while RL on the North Shore continues to rot while the Bears keep chasing the NRL dream.

If they’re left out of the new WA side, hopefully the NRL still makes a call on their future one way or another.

Congrats on proving me correct. I don't believe either because news ltd is trash writing for gullible morons like you.

You on the other hand just admitted that you believe the other one because it is what you want to be true.

The source is news limited. Did you finally find the $1 a week it takes to subscribe Perth Red?

Yeah, news ltd making shit up is your source. I'd be embarrassed to admit some news ltd journo is my only source. Although you admitted to paying for the daily telegraph, so I guess you have a humiliation fetish.

Please link where I said any of this..
I've stated clearly that the best option for the NRL is with the Bears being in Perth as apposed to a stand alone Perth franchise. This is the same thing, only with the Jets.
Unfortunately for the Bears , the Jets are a better brand imo and probably not holding the same demands ( 2 games in Perth)
I like it ,it's sad for the Bears if true but goes to show baggers can't be choosers.

Bold - I don’t see how. You leading with this tells me all I need to about you.

I feel sorry for the poor hillbilly bogans of this country like you. Well done on whatever forum win you feel vindicated with in all of this. Hope it makes your overall life better
