18th club, whose next?

[bad boy bubby]

The biggest benefit to PNG is it will be almost entirely locals, That improves PNG as a test playing team. That will lead to more money for the game.

Especially if Tonga/Samoa continue to improve

Yes to benefit PNG, I was talking of benefit to the NRL.

Absolutely fk all cost... its exactly what you want from the 18th and 20th team, you gotta make sure 19th is the one they want to pay for (broadcasters)

Player depth improves for all nrl teams via png juniors

money made from test matches and world cup by having another tier one test nation

 

[Perth Red]

If Perth isn't in by the time there are 24 teams....
It could be fun on here..

If you’re over 40 you’ll likely be dead before nrl gets to 24 clubs lol

Depends how quick you can quantify "super charged"
How long are these broadcast deals go for?
Lets say 5 years, 2 clubs each broadcast deal
15 years, depending each of the bids readiness
2039 perhaps

What’s faster, super charged or turbo charged? It’s taking them 12 months to decide on club 18, I’m glad my turbos a bit faster than the nrls!

Of course it is, you'd go thru the list of bids and circle perf asap, even tho they have none

PNG would be zero chance if there wasn't benefit to the NRL. The next 5-10 years NRL are chasing money - No way any team that comes in doesn't help that.

I was talking about RL as a whole. The year Aust and Poms play, The other test matches will get no traction.

Brisbane Tigers is perfect for the 19th licence.

Maybe a better version of something like this

That design would work well for the Norths Devils?

 

[Get Rid of The Donkeys]

There's no qld5 mentioned, your imagination is running wild donks

Politis mentioned Central Queensland as one of the next three teams. V'landys mentioned Politis in the quote Perth Red cited.

Surely NZ3 would be ahead of Central Queensland?

When and where is this next three teams quote by Pvl regarding CQ...
1 plus 1 dont equal 5 lol, Politis says shit all the time, so does PVL, and so does Kate Jones and Andrew Abdo, CQ is a non existant fantasy

That they would, broadcasters want it, QLD wants it, its a no brainer, but dolphins just came, need to give them some breathing space, Perth could only do this if Bears or Firehawks (bris tigers) were involved

Swap 24 clubs and replace with Perth nrl

swap you’re and replace with you

I posted the article a few pages back

polities said the next 3 teams should be Perth then png then central qld

So a car salesman brain farts out CQ, and suddenly it's a credible expansion option?

Really? This is the level of critical thinking?

I don’t agree with that option at all but that car salesman has a bit of a presence.

 

[Maximus]

Yeh, I don't think anyone even the forum loons is expecting PNG to contribute anything to this.

The forum loons do think the stadium is going to get an upgrade, so presumably they must think PNG are contributing, as the 600m isn't paying for that.

Pity nobody is talking about them. That could change of course.

It's not an option, it's a pure brain fart.

We laugh our arses off at Tasmania, yet credibly discuss a town with a smaller population then Homebush Stadium?
