Ideal World (as in not realistic):

3 teams in Brisbane (Broncos = Nth, Bombers = Wests and just to annoy both of them Mustangs = Sth)

CQld Bulls

Wellington Maui

West Coast Pirates

When PNG becomes more developed :

PNG Angels come in

Adelaide Devils

Explanation of the name's :
Bombers have already been chosen, move them West of Brisbane to the RAAF are.
Mustang's are actually the South West Rep teams name (Sharkies actually took Penriths colours)
CQld is Aust's Beef Capital
Maui local legend
Pirates as above
Angels during WW2 PNG natives earnt the nickname Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels
Adelaide is known as the City of Churchs so for the Aussie humour

Can posters start postings links and an important part, not the full article.

No. Maui is a legend across [uall[/u the pacific Nations. The Current name of Orcas would do just fine or as I have suggested, a team based over 2 venues, Wellington and Christchurch with a name that describes "anti-jafa"



TBH, I reckon the NRL missed a trick here. WA should have been in now with the possibility of another new club in 3 years time. Let's hope all the good work done out west doesn't go to waste.

Having been to a breakfast with John grant I am confident that there is going to be major developments for the game here leading up to our admission in 2016/17

How many NRL games do you think you'll get this year? The NRL need to make sure that Perth becomes a regular venue for games...the appetitie is patently there.

He said we would get three
Souths are confirmed, panthers and raiders are in talks to bring a home game each.

do the pirates get involved in "selling" tickets? Would be great if they raised funds through commissions on tickets sold.

Sadly not, only for the pre season game. We usually get couple of thousand free tickets we can sell plus some corporate box spaces. Not a lot when you consider a game in Perth can net 700k!
