ok, news of the new commision and suggestions the NRL will definately expand by two teams come 2013 means has given me renewed hope that if we get the next 3 years right we will be back!
Given the very ltd $'s available to the WARL what do you think they need to be doing to make sure the WA reds HAVE to be let in come 2013?
for me:
1. Market the hell out of any NRL game played here and make sure it sells out, regardless of what it costs.
2. Make sure we have at least 2 NRL regular season games here in 2010&12
3. Get the game back on to Ch9 on a Sunday afternoon
4. Make sure the academy and SG ball side is succesful
5. Pull out all the stops to get the ARL to fund a Bundy cup team again for 2011&12
6. Change the focus away from the current Reds team to a Reds bid. Get people signed up to support the bid, rather than the team. Refresh the website to focus on the whole bid etc
7. Probably the hardest but start planning like we will be in! Like the Bears have done identify potential fiancial investors, sponsors, coaches, players etc. If they come off or not doesn't matter, what we need is to show that we are serious and we do have the ability to get everything in place.
8. Finally lets get a proper media campaign happening. A promotional video showing the benefits of Perth in the NRL, some ex Reds players talking up the bid, some current NRL players that have come from WA etc.
Finally we neeed all RL fans in WA to play there part and make this happen!
