New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

[Perth Red]

Thought it was 30k?

iys 25k with the ability to add 5k temp seating if needed

 

[Perth Red]

No Toronto wasn’t a failure

super league did a review and found that the city of Toronto wasn’t a market that offered anything to super league lmao

the last successful English expansion was castleford in 1922

poms aren’t exactly experts when it comes to expansion

Catalans? All the expansion clubs in second and third tier comps? London?

 

[Pippen94]

Catalans?

England

 

[Wb1234]

Catalans

so catalans and not dolphins

fmd you are a hoot

be consistent.

 

[Wb1234]

Catalans were a merger of st eseve and xiii Catalan

rugby league in peripgnan dates back to the 1930s.

because of an Aussie Harry sunderland and the Salford Red Devils

You build infrastructure for it's peak capacity, not it's average capacity.

Smart planners also build it big enough to allow for future growth.

So Adelaide and Perth don't need an NRL team to build a 30k
rectangular stadium?

Their A-League teams could pull that many to a grand final. Socceroos and Matildas could draw 30k in both cities for Asian Cup and World Cup qualifiers.

The plan says something like “5k seat stand that can be folded down to make room for a concert stage”. Could just be fancy talk but doesn’t sound like the normal style of scaffold style temp seating.

So whether that stand is left set up and taken down for the occasional concert or not set up and put up for the odd bigger event remains to be seen.

Awesome

anyway imagine your stupid league had kept the Wolfpack

you could have a super league game in Vegas as part of a tripple header which would be massive for the English game

this is what happens when you know nothing about growing the game

What do the inadequacies of super league have to do with you refusing on Multiple occasions to answer the simple question of who’s picking up the tap for the PNG NRL team when the government handouts dry up?

He honestly believes the PNG mining companies will cover the $15-20mill a year an NRL team needs to generate. Cuckoo cuckoo

At expansion? Id say the RFL have been.

One option is they can play six games in cairns and thus generate ticket revenue and business from the area which will be hugely lucrative

one option of many
