18th club, whose next?

[MugaB]

Where any money should be going anyway. on youth teams/programs/pathways.

Its is already, its now just getting more with a 1st grade side

Australia isn't interested in fixing PNG, they just saw an opportunity to make a token gesture that they are helping the US in their proxy war against China.

Australia wants all the care with no responsibility. Furthermore, it's not like we've got some amazing track record of fixing poverty and homelessness in our own country anyway.

Yep, you're right on the money here, ....and they are hell bent on delivering this... like i said before NRL will take the money and run with it... this thread is dead come this September, maybe earlier.. we should be talking about who next after= 19th team

Security has and will continue to be an issue for QCup sides.

I know you guys know nothing about RL outside of your Sydney suburb, but this has been news for a while.

The Mackay Cutters threatened to boycott their game in Port Moresby in 2022 due to civil unrest. The QRL threatened to suspend the Cutters from all state wide competitions. Albo provided extra security to ensure the match was held.

You’re one of the few people on this thread with an open mind

i would take your concerns seriously as you’ve shown you can change your opinion based on evidence as opposed to bias

Bit like the raiders these days

heck even the pommies don’t want to play there and that’s coming from people who play in English dumps like Wigan or Warrington

100%, I’d love to see a poll amoung current players like RLW once had asking players if they would play for a PNG NRL side.

The likelihood of FIFO NRL players getting attacked in Port Moresby is extremely low, although security will need to be tightened to guarantee their safety. A barrier might need to be built around the field to prevent fans from swarming onto the field.

Didn't Lloyd Robson Oval have a security barrier around the field before it was replaced with the National Football Stadium?

If the players were living in Port Moresby then it might be too risky. FIFO shouldn't cause any problems.

There was talk of an athletes village being built in png

I’m sure the rlpa will ensure it’s safe for players

but I’m sure maxipad and karentard will be in contact with them with their own advice

A gated community could be an option. They're used in South Africa.

The security thing has been done to death

that’s literally why it’s being based in cairns

private jets to and from games and I’m sure the best hotels and training facilities will be provided

this team isn’t going to want for anything financially

sounds lovely... Cleary is asking for the contract to sign right now!

What is this statement based on?

What if a riot happens, on the day of the game or thereabouts, and the airport is shutdown for days etc. You are thinking about this far too simplisticly.

See Hillsborough disaster for why this is a terrible idea.

People are coming up with expensive, unsustainable work-arounds when the solution is obvious.

Cleary isn't leaving us panthers .. keep dreaming lol
As for marquees, whoever wants the money, remember, they can afford to overspend on the top end, and fill the remainder with the local minimum wage

It really is amazing how many people choose to ignore this.

It is the same with any area, NRL side improves the amount in the development pot and improves coaching

Even the minimum NRL wage is huge in PNG money, There will be no problem filling a squad. Like everyone getting quality halves will be
