New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

Moana pacifika get awful crowds In Auckland

Nobody would watch this team and it detracts from the warriors fan base

Might as well base it on mars

It’s like advocating for 2 clubs in Perth- they’re covered with 1 and a 2nd will just dilute the other and struggle for its own niche

Tokyo v Singapore GF 2052 is going to be epic!

Playing out of Eden Park is interesting but that's it. Of course if they find money may leapfrog other bids. Imagine we get easts tigers & Auckland 2?!

Ironically further away from the pasifika heartland than the Warriors

Mana Pasifika: The proposed Auckland NRL expansion franchise

Auckland becomes the latest team to throw its hat in the ring for a new NRL franchise, which would be dubbed Mana Pasifika and call Eden Park home.

AUCKLAND 2 BID.

has been rumored for awhile but a few peoples here were adamant it didn't exist..

Totally stupid idea, and totally stupid AI is different than adamant it didn't exist.

Game picked gold coast giants, crusher & reds as expansion teams despite dubious financial status. Titans was originally a consortium of businessmen. Selecting legitimately cashed up bids is a new thing for league.

Love that a site I read about the bid starts with Auckland putting hat in for bid when they already have the Warriors and yes might be NZ Warriors but based in Auckland, if it is from South Island would work maybe but otherwise I think not and also I thought the PNG team were including the pacific teams and even if accepted again who will give the money to keep them stable if the Pacific Rugby Teams struggle,
