18th club, whose next?

[Wb1234]

Didn't Sharks have to sign 3/4 of a spine from other clubs to finally win a comp?
Someone on here said they have 6000 players in the region, WA has 4100. Is it really that impressive after 50 years of an NRL club being there?

Yes yes it is

Best tell Politis then.

You're the high flyer who knows everything and everybody. You do it.

 

[Wb1234]

Is that albo or abdo, you seem to get confused?

Albo is going to fund a png team

Perth gets a half finished ground

 

[Perth Red]

Very impressive. Some great players have come out of the Shire. Quality over quantity.

or maybe its about pathways? You know actually having an NRL club with pathways available to the best 16 year olds?? There's 16 clubs in Cronulla region, 26 in WA. Maybe its not so much numbers after all?

I already briefed him for the CEO meeting lol. 20 clubs by 2033. National metro expansion. He delivered my ideas well.

I can guarantee you the players in the Cronulla juniors will be better than Perth

So you're back rubbishing cronulla?

I concur. Why wouldnt they be? They have access to better coaching, better nutritional programs, better elite pathways through the age groups etc etc . But none of that is unique and only available in cronulla. Its simply a matter of funding and opportunity. At the moment our naturally talented WA 16 year olds have 2 choices. Go into RU elite pathways or move to the east coast. There in lies the problem.

Lucky the arlc gave Cronulla more money then and didn’t waste money on a Perth nrl team

Always
Just using them as an a example of two things, why the grants have had to be raised massively at the expense of other areas to cover failing businesses and that participation numbers in WA are not far off other areas that are put up as shining lights, its the development opportunities that are lacking in WA.

whooosh. The sound of the point made going over your head!

 

[bad boy bubby]

Sharks can only generate $11mill in revenue, how is topping them up to be profitable whilst we slash tens of millions out of grass roots and abandon our investment strategies a good thing?

Ohh ffs, we have been operating without a Leagues Club for what 3 or 4 years now.
That is a fact, and a fact you've ignored in your post compared to other teams.
DO NOT SKEW THIS INTO A POKIE DEN FIASCO.
The fact Cronulla has recorded a profit without their main source of income should be congratulated.
Really mate, these are your posts that make everyone see you in that negative light.

Your the expert on awarding one point

Reverse the 2, give Perth 50 years and the same amount of funding and the stats would be quite different

f**k. 7000 participants in the Shire compared to 4000 in a whole State.
Get a grip.

Please don’t tell you are comparing an entire state with a population approaching 2 million with a part of Sydney with 200k residents

f**k. 7000 participants in the Shire compared to 4000 in a while State.

Last I checked Perth was a city not a state

regardless, do the same thing with a suburb of Perth with 200k residents and the point still stands

Sorry, participation numbers are great but if you're not producing first graders than you're really just dicking around.

And before you start, take youre own logic: stop living in the 70s blah blah blah.
