It’s not realistic

if the nrl admits a Perth team it’s bc they want a team in Perth not Sydney
He will still find something to whinge and moan about even after the Bears have played in Perth for 20 years. Some people are just miserable c***s. You’re wasting your time.

will they pay as much as they did for the dolphins? lol

Where does it say in that article they want another Brisbane team?
For Fordham, making the most of this momentum looks like bringing more games to the region – and potentially another team.

Fordham: “We’re really committed to working with the NRL in growing the competition, and Queensland is a big part of that. We think there’s room for another team here in Queensland, and the Dolphins have been the perfect example.

“The more games we can get played featuring Queensland teams in Southeast Queensland, the better. The engagement in rugby league here is just next level, and the energy of the crowds has a material impact on the quality of the broadcasts that we make. It helps create atmosphere, it makes the commentary team rise, it makes the production team rise.”

I’m seeing it as Nine want an 18th team and an exclusive game (9th game) on all their platforms. No doubt to get more subscribers to Stan. By the sounds of it they are keen on another SQLD team.

Gould and the panel want another brisbane nrl team
They see dolphins winning and brisbane happy, and want more... 6 months ago they were both questioning the lack of player talent and amount of time the phins were allowed to put a roster together, then saying that they should have copied the AFL model of salary dispensation, they are both floating with the wind.... just like dumb ass bruce hatcher,

What we need isn't another SEQ team until the dolphins make consistent finals and the current roster has turned over, then you can visit SEQ for another team... for now Perth, PNG and NZ should be the first places expansion should go to before reviewing or revisting that area of QLD
