so will alwaysloser, little man cannot help himself lol. just a loser tosser who adds 0 and thinks he is important. he isn't shit lol
I wouldn`t discount Africa either, some amazing things going on there and would be cheap as chips and lots of great athletes looking for a way out.
Only one more day, then into caretaker mode and we can all sit back and twiddle our thumbs until March. So much for Vlandys 2-3 weeks!
If it results in the govt spending an extra ten million pa purely on league juniors you won’t be complaining
lol stop plucking imaginary figures out of the air! The only extra commitments since October has been for extra schools in the SHS program and 1:1 funding agreement depending on how much the ARLC put into NRLWA extra. Oh and cost of Ken Allen training facilities which the consortium were going to cover.
pretty sure he never said that i think he said that it was in-principal agreement and then it lead to finalising particulars and then finalised contract agreement pen to paper but he also said the election time frame will spill it over due to ya know an election and that parties will have nda's on them and only tidbits of info will be released.
why are you such a loser, alwaysloser.
I’m plucking figures out of my inbox
My source has neither confirmed or denied the amount however:

Yeh that’s all datedMy source has neither confirmed or denied the amount however:
'Those talks have already hit a barrier. WA government and rugby league sources with direct knowledge of the negotiations, who requested anonymity to speak freely, said the NRL had asked for approximately $12 million in annual funding for the next decade.
Sources said the NRL’s request was rejected earlier this month and a task force, led by WA treasury officials, had now been established to negotiate with the NRL.
The WA government confirmed it had rejected the NRL’s initial funding request. WA government insiders say it has no interest in pouring tens of millions of dollars of taxpayer money into what amounts to a “subsidy” for the NRL'
WA knocks back initial NRL funding request
The WA government has set up a taskforce to work directly with the NRL on brokering a deal for an 18th rugby league club.www.afr.com
Late last month, Premier Roger Cook met with league chief Peter V’landys in Sydney, with reports afterwards claiming the Australian Rugby League Commission is asked WA to commit up to $500 million to funding infrastructure to secure a licence for the Western Bears.
That figure was later rubbished by the State Government.

“No numbers of that nature were discussed with the NRL,” Mr Cook told Parliament last week.
WA’s hopes for a NRL team in hibernation
Perth’s hopes of being the next team in the NRL have been put on ice, with the league set to announce a Papua New Guinean team ahead of the Western Bears next week in Sydney.
