What do the Roosters actually offer rugby league ?.
Like it or not Roosters add a level of class and sophistication, you might laugh given a couple of their players, to the competition that other clubs are always going to struggle to match given the areas they hail from.
The presence of a wealthy city-based club is invaluable to having a comp that caters for all demographics.
Bring back the days of Roosters` players appearing in the Sunday paper`s social pages (with model in tow) and I`ll know we really are back to the good old days.

Nz2 will be team 20 imo and come in before the brisbane Olympics

nz is clearly underserviced and it will actually grow the warriors brand

if it was up to me I would put them in ahead of Perth but listening to pvl Perth seems nailed on

The Perth bid is far more advanced than nz2 so depends on timing. Also largely depends on what the WA govt is offering and what the perth consortium can put on the table. Tick those boxes and the nrl would be nuts not to get perth in as club 18 or 19. strike while the irons hot and all that.
As long as vlandys doesn’t start worrying about flight times or rust lol

If the WA government were going to offer anything, it should be a decent stadium!
But nothing...
Your reliance on government for a WA bid is the single worst argument for a team.

You have no idea what the WA govt is offering , or not.
The only thing made public so far is $1/2mill towards the bid development. If you dont think they have indicted to Vlandys what they are offering when our premier rang him then you’re a bit dumb. Time will tell.

Not in my lifetime.
There’s 5 options and only 1 place, maybe 3 within 20 years or so. someone’s missing out.

There's finally an administration with the foresight to see the advantages of expansion. Perth Red just likes to shit on anything that isn't Perth because he's the epitome of the whinging pommy merkin stereotype.
