Pippen creates blackholes of shittiness and it just pulls everyone in.
“everyone”?
at this point in time you have by far the most posts in the thread. 27 out of 80. Even Pippen only has 16.
Without your contribution the thread wouldn’t have got as far as it has.
In fact, it does really appear that Pippen lives totally rent free in your head.

A League has no main presence on Australian TV and coverage on mainstream media across the country is poor.

What has the Glory got to do with a Rugby League team?
Neither did the NSL. Didn't stop the Glory from drawing bigger crowds than the Wildcats in the dying days of the NSL.

Isn't one A-League game broadcast on Ch10 each week?

Again what does an failing A-League team have to do with running a rugby league club other than Glory being based in the same city?

Investment in a NRL team with a confirmed NRL grant and the ability to sell sponsorship in the most watched code in Australian Sport is a lot more attractive than someone having to bail out the Glory.

Apart from Melbourne City, which is owned by UAE, which A league club isn't in financial difficulty? Newcastle hasn't had an owner for 2 years, and most of the other teams need their owners to put in millions of dollars per year.

Again your talking about a club playing a competition that does not generate enough money to provide clubs grants or in a competition that has enough eyeballs to demand quality sponsorship dollars.

You guys don't rate the NRL product highly enough to think that a team in Perth could be work with a population of 2 million people?

If they allowed Twiggy to spend what he wants Force would be the number one union team in the southern hemisphere lol He could sign the entire all blacks squad out of a weeks wages. Then you'd see the ruggers crowd fill HBF.

Thankfully the NRL isnt the Aleague or Super rugby and so clubs in those other two comps have little relevance to the performance of an NRL club anymore than GWS performance in Sydney has any relevance to the success of NRL clubs there.

He was spending over $10mill just so his club had someone to play lol.
Hes fittering away $7mill on jnr union in WA. He donated $100k to telethon for every try Force scored. He's donated $5billion to charity.
Its chump change to him. They should let him spend what he likes on the first team then Australia would at least have one competitive club with NZ!
