He usually doesn’t though. I have agreed with him on a couple of things, however, most of the time, he posts some retrograde thought and I’d completely disrespectful to other posters. He also misrepresents or misreads data in order to force it in to his rather narrow worldview, rather than letting facts or logic speak for itself.

I don’t have to agree with everyone and you and I have had disagreements but generally you’re respectful to other posters and don’t misrepresent data.
Well he is trying to correct a narrative by two posters who do that

most of his points about Perth are correct imo

Perth has been misrepresented on here as the savour of rugby league.

it’s not and never will be

at best it will be a decent sized club with a sprinkling of juniors

big deal

Again with the exaggerations. No one has said perth will be the savior of the NRL, or that the NRL even needs saving!

What is being said by most is that if the game wants to expand beyond its traditional heartlands then Perth is the obvious choice as club 18. It is a large wealthy city with a very supportive Govt, proven interest in rugby league, interested backers, gives a good tv time slot and adds to the tv metro reach which has proven to be valuable in tv negotiations.

Beyond that the rest is just fantasy made up by you and Pippen.

Any more news about the WA Bears?
Nope, all quiet on the Bears front! They haven't released anything since the comedian announcement and nothing coming from the West about them at moment.
With WA Govt currently doing its due diligence on who it will back we may hear something in next couple of months, or it may stay quiet until the rumblings that club 18 is being looked at by NRL surface again.

Never heard that before but it’s exactly the kind of bs I except the crl to pull

Illawarra should been admitted in 67 instead of Cronulla
No fkn way... St.george would have had another 11 year/string of premierships, had they not looked at splitting the talent in the area...what kind of competition do you want to have if the same f**kers are alwats winning..... today both '67 clubs rank the highest in participation and are currently the leading 2 Sydney clubs on the previous seasons ladder... that doesn't happen overnight, it would have taken atleast a decade of growth to get to this point, other clubs should be taking notes on what they are both doing with their local catchment and engagement to their fans/members/public to have these numbers... god knows roosters would love to have numbers like that.. even storm too, but its understandable storm are in a/(THE) heavily AFL centric city..

Its another reason Redcliffe had won its bid, as they could potentially be a similar set up brand as Penrith or Cronulla

Grammar check Colk! Tehe

On Pips he is actually trolling you guys, just to get a rise, thus conversation starts, barbs are thrown, tongue wagging 101... seriously who here actually thinks Perth would never work in the NRL, even Adelaide would work, FMD we have Canberra and Townsville... seriously the lengths of pride and scouting for proof around here is beyond sickening

Haha good one mate🤣🤣🤣 Got me there.

Yeah I know. I’m hopeless with baiting. I often get caught hook line and sinker. Maybe I need to do some yoga or something

Dont involve trump now... there isn't a poster here that wears tin foil hats around here barr that potato counting logan dustmite, videotogif_2022.12.02_16.29.58.gif

most posters here fall into 3 catergories
BELIEVERS
TROLLS
ANARCHISTS
If you are passionate about something here, you are a believer, PR believes that the NRL will one day wake up and push for a locally owned perth franchise of WAs choosing... thus also believing everyone here cares whats said as gospel, and fact no matter who posts it and that truth is only spoken by all...

Pippen then trolls him...

MugaB (that's me) sits back waits out the whole two pages of back and forth, then shíts on WA junior system, thus anarchy engulfs all over again

I wouldn’t say trolling

I would say putting in the least effort possible to rubbish peoples posts

Bring it on, besides have you not being paying attention, Canterbury-Bankstown Panthers

No they wouldn't, dragons ended up merging.. remember? i didn't see nearby clubs souths, easts, cronulla or canterbury merge...
This hypothetical game of this club or that club shouldn't exist is moot, whats done is done, EXPANSION thread people, the very definition of Expansion is to create a new entity and add it to something that currently exists...
To put it simply, the NRLs soon to be 17 clubs are it, it will only grow to other areas of the pacific, not cull, merge or take away from those current brands... so give up pretending that you most hated club doesn't exist.... end of rant

If Cronulla never came into nswrl they don’t join super league

cronulla were only brought in to weaken the dragons and it worked

as a stand alone club they were a poor choice

Ok it took 67 years to be a semi decent rugby league team after news ltd pumped tens of millions into them, the nswrl bailed them out a few times and they sold their development land for a fraction of its worth lol
