So this forum is consistent in its view that GWS is a steaming pile of horseshit. Yet some think Melb 2 is great idea?
Melbourne's growth isn't all West by the way, its quite significant in the North, and obviously SE. And the demos of Western Melbourne are not people from RL supporting backgrounds.
Growth doesn't correlate to support, especially when its not an RL state (not even close).
Western United admittedly nomadic existence, sees them have a crowd average of 3.1K! Why would the NRL have any more resonance?
