First link is a short clip saying Perth is a waste of time and it should be west Brisbane and chch they should be focusing on

ok .. thanks anyway ….although about as valid as what we think here at the end of the day ,,, I thought these two might actually have some news to report ..

For this one no. I think Dolphins will be even more empty if NRl doesnt announce a team before then. Many fans in the West are done supporting NRL and other clubs and not getting anything back.
Filling stadiums hasn't made any difference so dont see why half filling them will make any difference either.
Ok .Then don't chop & change re crowd at the double header.First a major catastrophe now no issue.
In the end it's going to come down to IMO give & take on negotiations.The Gov sharpens the pencil offers a little more (not too much too upset the electorate) & the NRL eases back on their requirements (but want long term security).

Buzz was positive about the Perth Bears …. Presumably he must be going over there for the games and wants to get on the free drink in peace
I sent him an email a few few days ago telling him how disgusted I was that the Sharks home game against Manly for the Steve Rogers Trophy was being played in Perth.
No reply
No traction

It proved to me what I already knew,
Buzz Rothfield is not really a Cronulla Sutherland Sharks Supporter

Whoa is me.

using AFL as an example they signed their 2025 deal in Sept 2022. in line with the timelines of us starting negotiations now and having a deal in place towards the end of the year. With the melt down the orange turnip is causing in the world you probably wouldn't want to wait too long in case of a global recession hitting!
That global recession hitting I doubt it.The share market in the U.S has had its biggest jump for many years. and the Oz market took a big leap today. Hundreds of billions of dollars from International companies have now committed to building mfg plants in the U.S. One of the main reasons for the tariffs. Even Obama wanted to raise tariffs admitting the country was screwed in trade .
This is not the 2008 GFC nor the COVID disaster .
Any case any TV deal will be based on Tv ratings, slots ,the product itself ,growth in crowds. , interest in social media and national spread.

Another Snoring Herald writer like Weidler. Seems to be a Herald thing. Are they not under the same ownership as Nein ? Negativity the name of the game.

I know a lawyer over in Perth. They’ve been working there all week. It’s got me a free trip and ticket to the double header. If anyone knows any good restaurants, hit me up.
GO THE FLO.
