Always good to see another West Aussie interested in NRL! You're not wrong, perth supports its clubs, especially when doing well. The biggest impediment to a perth club is myopic Rugby league folk, sadly some of who are in charge, that struggle to comprehend that you can sell quality products to new cstomers. Theres a lot of them on here, they just want to see the game remain confined to its heartlands, and come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful arguments to back up that belief.
Perth will one day have an NRL club, its inevitable for the countries 4th biggest city in a country that doesnt have many big cities. How soon is anyones guess.
Rugby League remains the only professional sport in the country that doesnt have a club in Perth, tells you a lot about Rugby League and why it has remained in small geographical outposts of the world.
