18th club, whose next?

[Perth Red]

What's the current offer payment from the NRL for a current club to relocate?
$15 million ?
Then $10 million a year for 10 years?

Nothing, that finished when gallop moved on lol.

NRL should bring back the carrot
As an incentive for relocation

You might have missed that all clubs are profitable now thanks to nrl grant increase. Why would anyone move?

Many reasons
More profit
More opportunities
Security for the future
And so on

I don’t think you understand how clubs think lol

Ditto, old son the arlc don't want bids that aren't already running some sort of leagues club setup, its just what it is, as much as you think perth is favourable, it not going to be viable unless its an already established setup at the moment, (maybe later on 20th licence perhaps)

Hard to believe a club that hasn't been in the comp for 25 years can have non-negotiables.

No one has to partner up with them, There has to be something in it for using the name and resources I gusss

If the aim is 20 teams by 2032, Then you need areas in that produce players over Perth. Personally I think the time line is too short but good to have ambition

2nd Melbourne team make's sense

You need a team in the other major metros before you even start to look into adding another melb team

Im not sure about that OK
Melbourne is the capital of sports world wide
It needs an NRL game every weekend
Okay

As a current Melb resident I would love that but there's other priorities the game should put first


Is the bear emoji implying the bears link to melb? Would work better than Perth tbh, less hostile to "the east coast" and with a team already in melb would be more feasible to send a game or 2 to NSO, could pump up the Werribee bears and be the Western + Geelong team, with the Storm currently based in Richmond and claiming the east

Perth and Adelaide.

Melbourne are starving for more live NRL Games at AMMI park

So a 20 club comp is going to be another brisbane and 2 Sydney clubs lol?
nrl clubs no longer need pokies to be viable, especially in a major city like perth. We can leave the social misery behind thankfully and look to a bright new future for rl no longer reliant on unethical income.

Melbourne 2 . Adelaide. Perth

 

[Nerd]

Perth. Established junior league, willing franchise and supportive state government. Perth also has a Rugby League history and gets good crowds to NRL games already played there.
