Perth glory ?

we ignoring them too
Here’s a thought. Rather than pursuing a defective negative agenda against Perth, hop on to the NZ2 thread and pursue a more positive argument for that non existent bid. All you are doing here is embarrassing yourself.

Just a reminder in fact, rather than biased prediction, of why perth sits in the hot seat for team 18

Western Australia has kicked off a campaign for a state-based National Rugby League franchise beyond 2023.

Work is now underway to find a third party bid the Labor government can support, amid expectations the NRL will expand to 18 teams from 17 after next season.
A cross-agency government working group chaired by Labor MP Peter Tinley has been set up to support the development of a third-party bid and assist the bid through the potential bidding process.

Preliminary work has already begun with consultants Freshwater Strategy to determine interest from potential third parties and the most appropriate bid structure, the government said on Sunday.

Your better than to jump to ludicrous conclusions. The AFL is an exciting sport. I prefer the strength , power and arm wrestle that Rugby League provides, there's more tension and more intense collisions. I enjoy it more.
I can appreciate AFL though and the people who follow that and understand that find it hard to appreciate League.

I'll keep providing the facts and you lot can keep playing the man and jumping at shadows. I can do this all day long but I'm just leaving the hotel to go an enjoy some NY nightlife. Peace ✌

That’s not a fact. Actually nothing in that post of yours had any facts. All of what you’re saying is an opinion. That’s fine but don’t confuse the two.

Secondly, if we are going to go personal, I have seen games of fumbleball. I viewed the sport and I didn’t like it so my conclusion is different to yours. The same as I have viewed other sports and have liked them like cricket, baseball, soccer, tennis etc. They might be completely different tastes to yours or it might be the same (who knows) but the crux of the argument is that I can only like something once I have had the option or the exposure to these things - for example I didn’t just wake up one day and say I like cricket having never watched the game before.

You do understand the cognitive dissonance in your argument yeah. You are an example of somebody who can appreciate both sports, yet for some reason you are suggesting that everybody else doesn’t operate like that. It’s weird.

3.4k attendance, losing money is viable?

The A League as a whole, RU in this country are basketcase.
Putting teams in for the sake of it isn't Guaranteed success, There is no rush so can get it right
Being the voice of reason isn't welcome in this thread.... you're just being negative 🤦‍♂️
Thanks for your post 👌

If they are in the comp then they are viable

But Yes, those two sports are basketcases. Only a moron would compare NRL to them. But wb1234 keeps on doing it.

Wow that must be great for your ego. Go you. Now off you go and find a whole bunch of other reasons Perth shouldn’t get a team. Your cheer squad is hanging off your every word!

No never suggested that, I'm quoted as saying 1 in 100. Not 0
And I'm a League fan understanding AFL and only because my brother and father loves it that I've had enough exposure to understand it fully , watch games, cheer for a team ( because they were).
Usually your posts are really good.
You're smarter than these bs retorts.
