yeah I think so. Perth isn't quite as cultish about AFL as Malbourne.Pretty good assessment of how the Storm have gone cracking Australia’s hardest market. Perth will be much easier to crack

You missed an ‘n’ there in the 5th last word and added an ‘l’
But misses the context of the ARLC doing nothing to assist junior development in Melbourne. The AFL has poured money into the non Aussie Rules states in that same time period.Pretty good assessment of how the Storm have gone cracking Australia’s hardest market. Perth will be much easier to crack

You're still on top.
This is exactly right. For twenty years the NRL basically did nothing to support game development and participation there. The local staff had to work their asses off with bugger all resources to develop the game. They had to knock back applications for new clubs as they didn’t have the resources to manage new comps/teams effectively. When people complain the Storm feeds off player bases from other states I laugh. Wtf were they expected to do when no money was invested in growing pathways? Over the past 5 or so years that had changed and their pathway teams have predominantly local players. These players will feed into the Storm and other clubs. And Welch is right. You don’t went the Rebels going under imho.
Reminds me of a conversation I had many years ago (rough transcript below):
40 years ago I’m doing an interview in Melbourne for a job. At the end ‘are you staying for the parade?’ . Me ‘what parade?’ ‘The footy parade!’ Me ‘Um no’. You know the rest.
I swear they're an insufferable bunch. There was a Queenslander who rocked up one day with an Essendon scarf. I didn't think much of it. I don't really care what people like. I started seeing him standing around as the regular groups would discuss who fumbled this and who fumbled that. He'd be there listening. One day I said to him, "I didn't know you watch AFL. I thought you were a Broncos fan." He replied, "I am. I have no idea what they're talking about." The guy was just trying to brownnose. But it made me wonder how many people are simply pretending to like fumbleball and have no idea what the hell it's about simply to suck up or to avoid trying to be converted by annoying fumble lunatics.
Every time I’ve had a leader who follows this crap they insist on discussing it every Friday and Monday and can’t comprehend the fact you aren’t interested. They are obsessed with it and can’t cope with dissent or disinterest. Given how much I enjoy annoying idiots it’s a fertile field for me hahaha
The article also breezes over the fact that the Storm themselves largely ignored junior development and grassroots investment in Melbourne and Victoria for the majority of their first two decades.
I’ve already said this but continue on(and on)
Is it there sole responsibility though?
It shouldn't be their sole responsibility, but they still have a responsibility regardless.
