There were fears the NRL might stop at 19 teams after the ARL Commission was left unimpressed by a series of Christchurch bids for a second team in New Zealand on the South Island.

But V’landys said the march to 20 teams is underway and says a fifth Queensland team remains a possibility, giving hope to the Brisbane Tigers or Ipswich Jets.

“Yes, we are looking at 20 teams, absolutely,” he said.

“That is the Commission’s aim, because 20 teams opens up so many doors.

“It opens up a better draw because you could play each other once, it would allow for State of Origin to fit in and it allows for international games to fit in.

“It’s the perfect format for all elements of the game.

“We don’t want to lose the integrity of the competitions because when Origin is on, we are hellbent on growing the international game and having the 20 teams helps us to achieve all that.”

Asked if the NRL will have 20 teams by the 2032 Brisbane Olympics, he said: “It could be even earlier than that, nothing is set in stone. I would prefer to do it earlier if we can. I don’t know if it’s a second New Zealand team, it could be another Queensland team actually.

“But we won’t be rushed into it, it has to be the right fit and it has to meet the business plan.”

I find it hard to imagine that the NRL season will ever be as short as 19 weeks.., we see how the broadcasters value international league with the pocket change World Cup rights …

Is PVL leaning Brisbane 3 for the 20th team ?

NZ2 needs a proper bid to get to the starting line ..

Who thought they'd stop at 20?!

Nz2 is too small, no broadcast money and battling rusted on rugby culture. Jets will be team 20 in 2032

 

[Wb1234]

Not me

24 teams

 

[Red&BlackBear]

I’m worried they take Christchurch place and if they do I’ll be blaming @redandblackbear

Ideally, both should get up.

The game will need to do its due diligence with player pool resources and continuing to work on its core infrastructures and pathways.

PNG for all the whining people have is a shot in the arm with opening up new player resourcing potential for all clubs. But it’s still a little way off.

On Jets; I’m all for it. I understand the potential that’s in the region and believe that potential meets all key metrics and markers for growth, uplift and stability. Must be mentioned though, that the Perth Bears & East Tigers likely affiliation will dictate how much energy I can potentially put into Jets short term. Everything comes with a price. If the scenario of Tigers/Jets combined proposal and bid is the way forward then great. No genuine short term promised restrictions with the energy I can potentially put forward. The next 12-18 months will be interesting.

 

[steeden.]

if the Jets and South Island are 20 and 21 the big (and maybe final expansion) question is: who would get 22?

we’re lucky we find ourselves in our current position but team 22 could be like the AFL’s predicament of team 20

Knew when Perth bears were announcing qld sponsors and affiliations you had some influence/involvement there

Clubs need people like you you’ve done good for the bears

I think longer term we’re going to 24 teams and Christchurch and Ipswich will be the next two teams in, just the order may switch

Perth being a success opens up Adelaide as the last box to tick in Australia

3 Brisbane clubs should be enough as it has a nice geographical coverage of northish(dolphins) middle (I know the broncos are everywhere but still they are the cbd team), south west (Ipswich) and the titans cover south east

Brisbane would have saturation coverage to cater for population growth over the next 20 years

There was a story on the news that Brisbane could extend is boundary to include Gold Coast too down the track

Adelaide to come in after Ipswich (one safe one risky)

Leaves Wellington, Fiji or even Hawaii if Vegas keeps going and they want some kind of presence in America

 

[i0Nic]

20 - Ipswich jets 2030
21 - NZ Orcas 2034
22 - Adelaide Rams 2036
23 - Hawaii Guardians 2040
24 - Melbourne 2 2042

Was it the Brisbane Broncos who demanded (in the 90s) that the Crushers be called South Queensland rather than encroaching on their entitlement to the name "Brisbane".

 

[Marlins]

I’ve been leaning on larger geographical names for the The Dolphins & potentially the Jets.

North Queensland Cowboys
Sunshine State Dolphins
Brisbane Broncos
South Queensland Jets
Gold Coast Titans

But the more I think about it I’d prefer Redcliffe & Ipswich. Would create much more rivalry I feel, while still staying firmly connected to their roots.

 

[T-Boon]

I see the comparison with Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the Broncos and Dolphins.
Early in their history Real Madrid (Broncos) bought up all the smaller clubs in Madrid or bought all the best players from the clubs that didn't join them so Real got massive and those smaller clubs wilted. The exception was Atletico (Dolphins), who while smaller went toe to toe with Real Madrid refused to be consumed and are now a massive club in their own right.
They should make much of this history in a similar book of feuds to Souths and Roosters type thing which would have more impact in Brisbane for the rivalry.

Could the east coast dolphins or eastern dolphins not work?

Adelaide would pretty much cover all of the major population centres but I’d also like to see the central coast get their own team.

He always seems to write off the option that wins.

He was once quoted saying he wouldn’t waste money in rusted on AFL states like WA.

Adelaide Rams owned and operated by CQ Capras.

Sunshine State Dolphins

Worst potential name I’ve heard for an Australian based sporting club.

The second worst is “River City Dolphins”.

Could the east coast dolphins or eastern dolphins not work?

Should be named after the council “Moreton Bay Dolphins”

 

[mongoose]

I used to be against branding them Redcliffe but I have changed my mind. You can call them whatever you want, people will know they are Redcliffe so may as well just embrace the traditional name. Redcliffe is the first port where Europeans settled in QLD too, although most people don't have a clue about that.

Every game mattering and a fair draw........the absolute dream

Every game mattering and a fair draw........the absolute dream

and 20 percent less money … hence why it won’t happen any time soon
