WA BEARS

[Wb1234]

Nah good luck to our fuzzy wuzzy neighbours, I’m just jealous/envious of them having a NRL team.
Wish I had gone on the weekend though now, dammit.

Be patient

Pvl seems committed and either way he’s said the bears will come in with the next team if it’s not Perth

Pvl isn’t gallop

What he wants he gets

 

[Perth Red]

Well… they don’t have to split the pie 19 ways now …only 18…. So they have that

The pie also doesnt grow from the sale of 12 more games a season and the benefit of another Australian club.

Unless its stadiums and control of NSWRL lol

 

[BuffaloRules]

Warriors 2?

I’m not sure the Bears logo can morph into some Māori influenced thing ..can you see that happening ?

 

[Wb1234]

If deal was done in october when it should have been AFL would not have had the platform to make any difference.

So afl kills off the team yet the person you are blaming is vlandys and not them


FMD you are good for a laugh

 

[ThornlieBear]

Let’s just wait until Cook’s interview today.

It might …they are tipping the TV deal to go to $3billion ….

Is Vlandys that weak he is going to let an AFL influenced newspaper kill of his expansion grand plan?? Wowo you dont think much of him lol

Without team 19 and 20 makes it harder

Gives him an excuse though when they dont get near it.

He’s not the one that changed his mind

You said yourself the deal was done

Now maybe Pvl will take this new crap deal on a promise behind closed doors to fix the stadium

Your premier is baby he should’ve just announced the stadium funding pre election

They both should have announced the Western Bears on October 7th and had done with it!

 

[Perth Red]

Funny, they've gone from $500mill to $320mill to now tens of millions lol. Still trying to make it sound bad

Cost of getting NRL team in Perth revealed

WA’s bid to secure the Western Bears has been revealed, with Roger Cook offering up tens of millions of dollars in grassroots support and a high-performance centre.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing

Think a good crowd this weekend will remind the premier what rugby league can bring

If it’s not sorted this weekend then it will be by origin

Dunno why Pvl sees so much in Perth but lucky for you he does

can we get the whole article ?

If they are attacking the other elements of the proposed deal now …perhaps the negotiations are continuing?

Was alluding to would it even need a Māori-influenced identity if the Wahs already do?

 

[Canard]

I think you are stuck with the Bears now…. Christchurch will get some Māori thing happening …

Yep the South Island is really known for its Maori culture.....

I think it’s a good chance …. You won’t mind will you ?
