The fact that people hold PNG to a double standard on virtually every single issue proves precisely that. Have a look through this thread and it's as clear as day.
Don't point out the obvious. It's possible to send one team of NRL players to, not only Port Moresby, but this year Lae and next year Kokopo but sending two teams - "impossible, too hard, not going to happen, have you been there, the place is full of poor black people".
Out of interest, which of Penrith and Cronulla is not in Sydney then?
Also quite amazing that we averaged only a couple dozen less than souths.... what with their 20,000 members and 13,000 ticketed members and all. They are seriously cooking their membership books.
Wrong for a start.
Overall 11th for crowds.
And tbh it's expected when they play like the biggest bunch of peahearts in Sydney. If they continued last years form would have been around 16-18k. Oh and lol@souffs
Good god guys any of you actually spent any decent time outside of a Hotel in PNG its not a nice place at all.
I am speaking from experience the PNG government is corrupt as all crap and as for the miners etc putting in $$$ in for something like this they wont they are just raping the place for profit they dont give a crap.
Better off taking a few more games to perth and NZ and I dont think the sharks have aiton any more either.
Apologies, must have glossed over Penrith. They are the 3rd lowest, you must be so proud ;-)
Clearly said "in Sydney"
Its certainly not on my bucketlist of places to go. The talk of a PNG club was interesting... if I was a half decent footballer they couldn't pay me enough to move there to play footy.
My point about 11th overall was to show that these all important non Sydney teams with magical high crowds don't exist. Except for the Broncos, most non Sydney teams have crowds around the low end of what Sydney teams draw. Yeah, we should kill off some Sydney teams :roll:
