Yep, their strict adherence to non-disclosure & "let's be better" attitude when turned down are hopefully winning them some points with V'Landys.

Did anyone ask them what license fee they put in the box? Easy to not have to defend yourself when it hasn't been leaked to the media.
Fair point, and I think one of the real advantages of NZ bids is that they've not had to deal with the media scrum around rugby league in Australia - so could more easily stick to a NDA.
So they didn't do train wreck interviews saying they were blindsided by the NRL, publicly discrediting the organisation?
The leaks have nothing to do with the fact that A: they chose " no bid" in a bidding process..then B: publicly shamed the NRL in a couple of radio interviews shaming the NRL, saying that they were " blindsided " .
You started this troll thread in Dec 2022, the Warriors season didn't get going to hype levels until about 8 rounds in. I pointed out there was a thread in the NZ section of the forum discussing the poor state of league in NZ at that time.
Which proves what exactly? That you were wrong then and still wrong today?
Should go bump all his posts where he said a second nrl side would have little impact on union, that league juniors in nz were collapsing, that the warriors crowds would fall once they started playing poorly or that the nrl nz tv deal is going to get cut
Or where I told him that the main reason for the drop in juniors was due to covid and will bounce back..
It didn’t come from them, the media started announcing they had put zero in the license box before they had even spoken to cumins. Vlandys has played this out in The media since grand final day when he announced to the world the bids weren’t acceptable before he’d even talked to any of them.
WA won the wooden spoon for bids. They not only came dead last for bids but didn't even gain inclusion in the bidding process..
spanner
Over 10 years you've been on here advocating for a team.. finally got an opportunity to put in a bid..what was it? Zero.. you bid Zero
lets see how this ends before having such smugness, he who laughs last and all that.....
You were mocking me when Perth had overtaken png for team 18 and now png is the only guaranteed bid lol
Every private bid has been rejected, so they are all wooden spooners.
