When somebody from Perth puts hand up you'll change view I bet..

There are already some who have put their hand up.

For example, do you think that the government over there are ringing up V’Landys or spending money out of their state budget for a laugh. There are also numerous articles stating different consortiums who are interested in bidding as well. So I don’t understand why you are arguing that there isn’t any interest.

There are no bids simply because there is no official tender process. The ARLC haven’t indicated where they are going and when they are going to put in the next side.

Nothing to do with crushers & Perth being broke?!

Mate, every team that has been broke post Super League have been bailed out so again Super League is a poor reference point.

Also, teams with money during Super League like Adelaide and Gold Coast were canned.

So yeah it was more about the war than anything else.

Crushers weren't properly vetted. Backing wasn't strong enough. Plan was to run on game day money. Sound familiar?!

Means nothing. How much does team bring yo broadcasting deal?! Does fox pay for expansion?! How much money does new club need to spend to reach that number?!

Fox pays for the extra game every round that Team 18 creates.

And that money should be used to fund expansion.

Of course you're just a troll, who thinks this is all a big joke, so I'm the dickhead for responding.

It could cause tension where the nrl contracted players go though. Splitting them up does the players no good and snubbing one club decays the purpose of have two feeders. Wests Tigers had issues with this year's ago. Luckily balmain went bust.
The Dolphins currently have three QLD Cup feeder clubs, the Roosters have two NSW Cup feeder clubs. Melbourne next year will have three feeder clubs.
