I'm not against Perth having an nrl team, all for it 100 percent, just don't think this bid without the bears, jets or someone who's currently at reserve grade level like east tigers etc, were to bolster them in their infancy for at least 5 years, maybe there could be a deal done to have one of them involved, and after that they can return to wherever with a new licence, and leave Perth under their own brand pirates/reds etc that way you get the best for all parties
Player wise they're in the same boat as your precious PNG.

Of course under your plan in 3 years time PNG will be penrithing NRL players.

This what singo thinks about Perth;

A man with an acute radar for duplicity, Singo has issues with the veracity of the numbers of junior players, level of financial backing and TV viewers being touted by both the WA government and their preferred owner, Peter Cummins of Cash Converters.

Singo also queries the size of the TV audience being spruiked in the west.

“These days they are called eyeballs,” he said. “Do you count them as two eyeballs or one?”
Perth red can't get away with the extra mayo on an unknown forum.. it appears as though the Perth Govt ect tried that on Sigleton..
Fail.
And imagine them trying that bs on the NRL who specialises in this specific data..?
Hilarious.
It's a dream come true really, watching Perth reds Bullshit get squashed in public in real time.

Dude, singo last week was the Newtown Jets savior last week, also perths too from the jaws of the the big bad bears, all of a sudden he drops the idea, there's something up, no way singo steps away that sensibly, and also throws in a jab at perths expense..
When someone of that calibre takes a public shit on your organisation or attempts to be... it's bad.
He could have simply said " we wish them well but we've decided to pursue other opportunities "
But no.. a public f u..

Singo cares about the sport. Had his own expansion bid knocked back despite willing to pay licence fee.

plus they're both about Joe Biden's age.
Yet you preferred him over Trump?

The amount of crimes and scandals Biden and his drug addict son have been involved in over the decades is enormous. Illegal dealings in Ukraine for years. But his name isn't Trump and CNN ran puff pieces on him, so you supported the old dickhead and attacked anyone who didn't.

Biden wears a nappy and shits his pants. Doesn't know if he's Arthur or Martha.

I was surprised to read that Roy Masters article about Singo and the Jets about Perth.

I hope it’s just bitterness about not getting a deal up.

He said the felt the bears and Perth (prob more Perth ) were using him to negotiate against each other with no real interest to involve the jets

No politics please.
Especially US politics.
It would be good if the ARLC extricated the game from the despotic left-wing political movements that are funded by evil globalist arseholes with an agenda.

Todd Greenberg and Peter Beattie started this shit. I hate those two self-serving mongrel bald headed dilbries.

According to singo bid has suspect funding, no base or grassroots, tv numbers don't add up. Somehow will have team up & running in 2027?!
The argument from the other side is that we don't want a Perth team..well as a matter of fact I want a team in Cambodia, Japan and Saudi Arabia! I wish that the greatest game of all was played everywhere! Fact is, it's only possible to do incrementally.. any step too far ends up being a step backwards through lost audience capture, funding and talent.
The Bears offers some audience capture, funding and talent.. that makes it possible a step not too far...

What Singleton is alluding to, is that based on his look under the hood with his acute business acumen, Perth is in fact a step too far.
If we go to Perth it has to be very strategic and calculated risk that we are willing to bare.
I'm really keen on Perth but there's better options to step forward, grow more and consolidate that growth before such a leap.
