Why is perth bid so secretive?!

[Wb1234]

So you are still calling John Sackson a liar?

“There is a consortium of very successful businessmen in Perth who are also passionate rugby league people that are working behind the scenes and doing lots of ground work,” Sackson said.

Maybe one day they will come out of the closet

Maybe, or maybe they will keep their powder dry until NRl decides where it wants the next teams.

That's why NRL selected dolphins over jets?! U know these unnamed businessmen?! U know they're successful?! How bout ppl sticking to what they know for sure?! However much or little that is..

So like the complete opposite to what your doing?

You'd think they'd need to be known before the NRL chose the next team(s), wouldn't you?
Surely it would only enhance a Perth, or any teams, bid to have the backers in full view.
Anyway, I haven't seen the NRL formally ask for bids from any teams in expansion as of yet.

Because team 18 is already decided

and it’s not Perth

They are known to the NRL.

Not really, its probably a similar or same group that got badly burnt in 2012 when they went full on media with the Reds/Pirates bid expecting to be in 2015, which was all the indications they got from NRL. It was incredibly frustrating, and embarrasing, for them when Grant pulled the rug out. Decisions on expansion wont be made based on number of media articles.

and its unlikely they will. it wont be an open tender. They will, in all likelihood, pick their expansion area and the consortium they want to go with based on whats been presented to them by the interested parties.

Has the Fed Govt handed over the cash yet? Or signed the papers even?

So you are calling John Sackson a liar? Just to be clear.

Lol, who the f..is that?!

Who are these successful businessmen?! Where is the consortium?! Seeing is believing..

..maybe these successful businessmen don't have the money to run bid & consortium proposed in 2020 never came together..

 

[Dragonwest]

CEO of the NRL WA.

If bid was strong we'd know about Perth already

These aren't tough questions. Bids should be able to answer this basic stuff..

 

[Perth Red]

These aren't tough questions. Bids should be able to answer this basic stuff..

to you? Why? Im sure the people who matter know ie Vlandys, Abdo and whoever at the NRl is looking at expansion.

 

[Dragonwest]

Lol, I thought it was somebody important!?

He is liaising between the state government, NRL and local investment interests, I'll take his word of your feelzzz on the matter.

 

[Perth Red]

If Perth comes in it will be owned by a WA consortium led by Cumins, backed by the WA govt and be closely aligned with the NRLWA. That's all you need to know.
