Perth fails and they move back to north Sydney oval lol
I thought that was what you were referring to, I hope that there is a clause where they have to make this work, no matter what.
Perth do no deserve to happen to them what happened to the Bears with Manly with the Northern Eagles joint venture.
I’m not even going to discuss options on what will happen if the Perth Bears start to fail over in WA.

With the money the arlc give clubs and the money this bid will have behind it the chance of failure is nil

plus Perth will have majority ownership it won’t be up to the bears anyway

there’s a nice symmetry that the two clubs most dudded by super league are coming back as one

Yes I'm the idiot, coz I'm not advocating for Brisbane Tigers as they won't fail miserably and weaken Broncos, Dolphins and Titans, FMD you are myopic
The likelihood of Brisbane Tigers failing is much lower than their rival bids. They've got deep pockets to survive lean times.

Dolphins didn't weaken the Broncos and Titans.

Sound of the dolphins Imploding ?

on track for their first semi finals in only their second year of the nrl
The success of the Dolohins actually may work against Brisbane 3's chances in the short-term, because a) the NRL probably won't wanna disrupt SE-Queensland in any hurry and b) having a cashed-up Brisbane Easts ready to "come off the bench" is useful to keep in hand just in case other expansion teams hit trouble & the NRL needs a sure-fire sugar-hit of cash.

Brisbane 3 is a powerful card to play, and I can absolutely understand the NRL keeping it in reserve at the moment.
