Ok a few points!
Sl clubs have to reduce their overseas players by one a year for the next 5 years. That is 12 NRL players a year that won't be going to SL every year for the next 5 years.
Even if Perth were admitted in 2012 I'd lay money on that by 2017 we'd have more WA players in the first team squad than melbourne will have Victorian players despite having over a 15 year head start.
There will be no "plonking" a team in Perth! If we get a team it will be because of a lot of hard work by RL people in Perth. The Reds should be the model for expanding our game and so far they are looking like a very good bet to be in a position to add value to the NRL come 2012.
Last but not least I want the NRL to KNOW which areas are important and will add value to the competition. I want the NRL to SUPPORT those potential areas and I want the NRL to have a fighting fund to make sure our sport is National and number 1 by 2020.
