I’m with Ricky Stuart after last weekend, that was horrible, I turned it over at halftime.
No team in the NRL would’ve over come that officiating display.
I'm certainly not with Ricky. He gave his players clear instructions to slow down the ruck, they did, they got penalised and lost.

It was great refereeing. Penalties aren't supposed to be " even " . Simply seeing an infringement should be called.
If the Raiders were allowed to get away with that, the whole comp would adapt the same tactics and we would see the most boring year the NRL has ever produced.

Woeful officiating, the Raiders were frustrated out of that game in the first half alone, that disallowed try to Canberra was rubbish and the Manly player should’ve been given 10 mins for the late shot on the halfback, though I did 100% agree with the Corey Horsburgh sin binning.
Bias officiating like that will ruin the game.

Which reports did you hear that from?

i thinks something must be close whenever redblackbears disappears for a few days in this thread shit tends to suddenly pop up soon after?
Jesus christ give it a rest, I know you`re in love with the guy but for christs sake do you really think he pops off to push the bid through then just reappears when his work is done. Wake up.

Look, in all honesty I had money on Manly.
And obviously was happy with those calls at the time but even after the fact in hind sight and no longer invested thought they were the right calls.
The way Canberra played that game was exactly why they brought in the " 6 again " rule. If a team slows down the ruck to cut any chances of momentum and things opening up, a penalty doesn't work because they reset.. rinse and repeat. You can do it all game slow down the ruck deliberately/ cheat and win..still

Canberra were blatantly cheating, there was probably 50 other tackles that could have been 6 agains.

If Ricky wants to be successful, maybe come up with a better game plan than cheating.

Not gonna share?
Keep in mind some are “proposals” and others were explained in minor detail. Also need to reiterate that this is from Norths AGM. Chair speaking to members.

Perth Bears confirmed NRL ownership.

Perth Bears likely board make up explained. How many seats from NRL, WA & Norths.

Perth Bears likely future logo explained.

Perth Bears likely Norths financial input (if the request is approved then the % will surprise a few people here who have been critical of what Norths would offer financially).

Perth Bears proposed operational involvement %.

Reiterated and confirmation that there’s no chance this Perth franchise ever leaving or moving away from WA. It’s 100% WA.
