McDonalds and the local fish and chip shop are both restaurants. That doesn't mean that it's reasonable to expect the local fish and chip shop to be capable of a profit anywhere near what McDonald's does in a single city, let alone all of Australia or the rest of the world, and the fact that they're not as profitable as Maccas doesn't mean that they aren't successful in their own right either.

Seriously this is ridiculous at this point. You're dead and buried.
So nrl is McDonalds and a league is the local chip shop

ok keep digging that hole buddy

Fan poll on Facebook had Bears third least fave option, just ahead of Sage run Qoukkas lol
Pirates
Reds
Bears
Qoukkas

is what the WA fans want
We’re talking actual fans, not the Roy Morgan type.

Another insight into how Perth Red thinks:

Some crappy Facebook poll = accurate enough to make big decisions about what fans want

Actual real pollsters = it’s all lies!!!

TBF, Roy Morgan's standard for a fan is just simply to ask people what their favourite team is.

You could go to any city and ask a thousand people what their favourite team in each sport is, most would give you an answer, and most of them wouldn't be able to name a single player, haven't been to game in years if at all, aren't members, and don't or have never watched the team on TV.

That's not to say that PR's poll means anything either though.

Roy Morgan do multiple NRL related polls each year. You’re most likely just looking at one of the ones they publish for free. Club supporter profiles are broken down into things like attendance, merchandise purchasing, television viewership etc. They’re quite specific.

Seeing the bears come back in is going to be even better for the salt you will provide

keep talking up teams that average crowds of 3k bro it’s funny
Yes because calling them "easily the most farcically run professional sports team in Australia since the turn of the century" is a glowing endorsement lol.

You're cornered, there's no way out, and no amount of dishonesty is going to change that. Just give it up.

It led to the Bears going broke as they had to pay to play games at away venues, North weren’t financially strong at the time, neither were many teams like Manly thus the merger.

Cowboys and Reds were required to fund the travel and accommodation expenses of all teams that flew to Townsville and Perth, as well as their own when they played away from home. The stipulation was put in place at te request of the Sydney-based clubs. Looks like karma caught up to North Sydney.
