PNG is a political stunt, it will be announced when it best suits Albos campaign to get re-elected. WA still work in progress, nz2 seems way down the priority list.
Tell you’re mate to hurry up and sign the papers

If he ticks off lord vlandys again it will be central coast bears as team 18 or Brisbane

The legal teams would have quite a bit of paper work to sift through. Can only imagine the clauses, terms and conditions which both parties want included in or were asked to kindly remove for whatever reason.

Big ticket item in how the proposed WA Gov funding to junior development is actually going to be distributed. That item alone would need careful consideration. Surely it wouldn’t be just an annual lump sum and all the best wishes. If WA Gov are like QLD Gov then I’d imagine they would require in-depth cost spending schedules so every dollar is accounted for. But who knows.

Papua New Guinea's historic entry into the NRL is finally set to be announced next week in Sydney - but powerbrokers also want to see a Perth franchise operating in the 2027 premiership season.

The team based out of rugby league obsessed PNG is tipped to then follow ahead of the 2028 campaign.

The highly anticipated announcement will involve the Prime Ministers from Australia and PNG - and it is understood the NRL and federal government have finalised their $600million deal that will be allocated towards the expansion venture and development of the code.

It comes as discussions remain ongoing with the NRL and WA government for a team, with funding the chief stumbling block.

PNG is a big mistake at this moment in time.
As long as the WA Bears announcement follows not long after I’m not to fussed to fussed.
I’ve made my feelings known on the PNG NRL team but good luck to them, they will certainly make interesting watching, on and off the field.
