West Coast Pirates Bid News

[Perth Red]

It was enough to get the attention of David Moffitt which in turn is launching his own bid... and that's getting headlines and he'll be meeting V’landys.. but more importantly there's a ground swell starting to form on the South island demanding inclusion..the fans! There's hype building..
I remember when the NRL had to decide between Central Coast, Wellington and Gold Coast.. they were all commanding attention and headlines. The Gold Coast voted with their feet with sell outs at carrara and the Gold Coast bulletin giving the bid the front page many times, a massivebuildof momentum and hype.. Gold Coast in!
Same is happening in Christchurch.. WA playing catch up now but they haven't even started running..

We were there in 2012. It made zero influence in the outcome.
we got 45k to nrl event last year in perth, if that doesn’t send the nrl a message no amount of ai logos or podcast interviews will.

45k at last years double header
coaches wanting perth
clubs massively favouring perth
vlandys ongoing discussions with govt
Vlandys stating that they could bring png and perth in

presuming the business case is going well I’m sure we will be in contention.

“That’s not surprising about Perth, but we’re deep in discussion with the federal government on Papua New Guinea. It’s no secret we want to go to 20 teams and Perth is certainly in the mix. We can do both.” - Peter V’landys.

Haven't heard anything since the double header.

All we know is what’s been mentioned in passing. The wa govt has had numerous discussion with the nrl and the consultancy firm has been working with interested parties to develop the business case.

cumins has been unusually quiet which makes me think they have agreed to do this behind closed doors instead of through the media.
it’ll either be a bit out of the blue or nrl will have chosen to go somewhere else and it will be quietly forgotten about so as not to embarrass the govt.

AFL Red making stuff up now. Too much time with donkey.

Link ?

To what?

Vlandys has mentioned he has had numerous conversations with wa govt, the guy form the consultancy firm engaged to put the bid pieces together and make a recommendation to govt has said it’s well progressed. They are playing it behind closed doors which is interesting, can’t decide if it’s a good or bad thing. Ideally you’d be hyping it up if we are a serious chance to milk the excitement, but having been burnt with the reds/pirates bid in 2012 maybe they want to keep it all on the qt until we know which way the nrl is going.
one thing is for sure, the arlc won’t be deciding bids on ai generated logos or how many column inches you can get in a Sydney newspaper.

You have no clue about what the arlc are wanting lol, you still think Perth and Adelaide are nessesary, as if its about metros

 

[MugaB]

When did he state that?

Pr hearing what he wants to hear again


Pvl said he could bring in PNG and the Bears maybe in perth maybe somewhere else, it was in that slothfield interview

politis feb 2024
We can’t ignore Perth when you have the Premier [WA Premier Roger Cook] wanting to come into the competition. I met the Premier myself who said they have a lot of big businessmen ready to back them. I told [ARLC chairman Peter] V’landys and [NRL CEO Andrew] Abdo

 

[Get Rid of The Donkeys]

Doesn't Politis want the next three teams to be from Port Moresby, Rockhampton and Perth?

Does that mean he holds Perth in the same ballpark as a small regional city from Queensland and a small city in PNG?

I really hope it's the Perth Bears just so I can watch Perth Red's meltdown rants for the next ten years about how it's not a real Perth club and how he won't support them.

He'll be supporting the Dorkers.

He'll go berserk when the attendances drop and the club relocates to Gosford.

While since I lived in Perth but:
1. Do they still turn the street lights off at 11pm?
2. Are servos now allowed to stay open after 5?
