Would line up well with an airline sponsorship. The Qantas Jets.
Specsavers maybe?
If jets link up then this wouldn’t be bad colours, just to annoy Ipswich and donkey lol
And Tigers out Westsssssssssss-ern Australia
I really don't think splitting the merger and having Brisbane Tigers and West Magpies is a bad idea. Perth gets south West Sydney juniors
No splitting of merger... wests and tigers the beautiful marriage set to honeymoon out in perth
Why would you need them? Perth's fifo comp is going to produce hundreds of nrl first graders instantly.
Not going to happen and only an imbecile would keep harping on about it.
They are talking to a number of feeder club options. Newtown would be one of the weakest given they dont run any elite jnr sides. Might be an opportunity for them to get back into it I suppose.
If there's anything I've learnt about expansion teams after decades of watching sport it's that it's a bad sign for the prospects of a new club if their owners and/or administration can't get basic fundamentals like good branding down, and what you're suggesting, which put whatever spin on it you like, of basically attempting to ape the colour scheme of the team that entered the competition immediately before you, is an incredibly stupid idea for multiple reasons.
Dane makes sense... the color schemes he brought up are really good combos, and that Pittsburgh one is by far the best, i personally want to see a purple/gold combo much like the laker'sIf there's anything I've learnt about expansion teams after decades of watching sport it's that it's a bad sign for the prospects of a new club if their owners and/or administration can't get basic fundamentals like good branding down, and what you're suggesting, which put whatever spin on it you like, of basically attempting to ape the colour scheme of the team that entered the competition immediately before you, is an incredibly stupid idea for multiple reasons.
I also hate horse shit, and among other things you've effectively suggested that every colour except for red, black, white, and blue are unattractive and and incapable of moving merch, which is beyond mere horse shit.
I mean you literally pooh-poohed colour schemes that are shared by some of the most successful sports teams on the planet, the likes of e.g. The Lakers, Celtic FC, Pittsburgh, Juventus, every second team in New York, Chicago Bulls, just to name a few that come to mind, as unworkable, 'whacky', 'polarising', etc, which either exposes an unbelievable level of ignorance on your part, or, more likely, is just an insane cope.
The Dolphins got in first, they chose to use the colours that you thought would be ideal for Perth, it is what it is, you adapt and move on. If you want my suggestion then black and yellow gold is simple, iconic, attractive, unique in the context of the NRL, and makes a lot of sense for a team in the WA market. With a good design you could walk into the NRL with some of the nicest jerseys in the league, and not have to worry about brand confusion or clashing with anyone in the NRL.
BTW, pink and brown isn't stopping these guys-

and others, from pushing more merch than the whole NRL.
Black and gold works and can have a nod of scarlet to keep with badge branding if pirates. If not pirates I wouldn’t mind the green black and gold. Orange, brown, pink? Please.
In Perth's case I'd probably pass on purple and orange because of the Glory. You could still get away with it if you really wanted to, but taking purple and orange would probably be seen as copying them, and it's probably best to avoid that.
