WA BEARS

[BuffaloRules]

Union and soccer must be spitting chips. They've been established in their top flight competitions here in WA for about 18 & 28 years respectively, and it's only now that there looks like there will be an NRL team in town that their shared home ground gets a $300mil upgrade.

Kinda puts them in their place ... and I'd guess they won't particularly like it. Especially union.

Yep … Union and soccer are the minor leagues of Aust sports…

Perth getting another team in the big Competition - State Gov open up the wallet

 

[final say]

Still will be one of the worst

Feels like a waste of money.
They want to be a world class city in a rich western country... it's time to cough up and build a city feature like Melbourne did will ammi Park.

So they would’ve spent 600millito get a 25k seat stadium

lol at least Penrith got two stands for that much

They need to sort out the food and beverage outlets in the eastern stand. I didn't realise they were so bad until optus opened.

I used to prefer the food trucks behind the North. Theres a great pub that sell lovely pizza just 5min from the stadium, thats our new food before game stop!

maths not you're strong point either?

theyve spent:
$125mill (inc lease from council) in 2011
$35mill in 2022
allegedly $300mill for the next upgrades

Like that changes anything

300 million is a great result for rugby league even if it’s a bad deal for the taxpayer

450 million they will end up with something decent

not on the standards of Melbourne but not bad

Ok…

If there is no news yet of the Bears side putting in any money … that’s all I wanted to know..

I would be surprised if they put money into this …looking at the way the arrangement has shaken out … you would assume they aren’t putting up money

Then what is in it from the Perth side of it? Remember all along their preference has been to go alone

John Singleton confirmed that the Jets were trying to raise money to be part of it.
