The only reason to play a game at NSO (commercially speaking) would be if the Perth club felt it would engage more NS Bears fans to belong to the Perth club and buy merch and memberships, or if the NSLC was paying the Perth club to take a game there. Beyond that it makes zero financial sense. There isnt the capacity or corporate facilities to match HBF Park. They also have to sell Perth memberships and sponsorship packages for less as there's only 11 games not 12.

From Roy Masters article today:

"A man with an acute radar for duplicity, Singo has issues with the veracity of the numbers of junior players, level of financial backing and TV viewers being touted by both the WA government and their preferred owner, Peter Cummins of Cash Converters.

Singo also queries the size of the TV audience being spruiked in the west.

“These days they are called eyeballs,” he said. “Do you count them as two eyeballs or one?”

Geez singo obviously didn't enjoy the crux of his meeting with cumins... he is really driving home the short cumins of the bid

Bid is short $30 million. Meanwhile Brisbane tigers are independently wealthy, PNG will offer $600 million in govt funding & one of the kiwi bids is rumoured to be led by a billionaire..
