WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg



Quote: Sheldon "Searle's comments must be disapointing JB.'"


not really, he is saying what he believes os best for HIS club. Fortunately the people making the decisions will make them based on what is best for the game. Also he is coming for a point of ignorance as he has no idea what two new teams will be worth in teh next Tv contract. If they are worth more than the NRL granmts they will recieve then his club will be better off. Funny, you'd think being the recipient of expansion he would be a bit more pro (unless he is fearful of a Brisbane2 side of course!)

lol at comparing RL in WA to RL in London! icon_lol.gif

and as the last nrl expansion team he should know better

2 new teams will add a lot to tv rights ...way more than they cost

searle is a great CEO but on expansion he should zip it ASAP

we will be expanding despite what searle wants

Ah ignorance is such bliss!

Try a 55 year RL history, when was the last time a London team got 15k to game or a sponsor worth more than $1.5mill? Yes the failure of Quins/Ful/Broncos has a relevance on how an NRL team will do in WA icon_lol.gif

Quote: JB Down Under "Ah ignorance is such bliss!'"

Explains why you're so happy then

Quote: JB Down Under "Try a 55 year RL history, '"

55 years of top flight RL in WA? Really?


Quote: JB Down Under "when was the last time a London team got 15k to game'"
Challenge Cup final.....how many major competition finals have WA been to?
Quote: JB Down Under "or a sponsor worth more than $1.5mill? '"
Virgin were worth more than £1,500,000.....and the current owner ploughs £1,500,000 of his own money in now......that's pounds.


Quote: JB Down Under "Yes the failure of Quins/Ful/Broncos has a relevance on how an NRL team will do in WA Abject failure.......except they are still in ESL and will be next year....but it's nice that you show your true colours. You're not for expansion...you're only for expansion on your terms. Very small minded. icon_rolleyes.gif

I repeat, WA are the obvious choice, but like the fantasy posts regarding 300k sydney RL fans, 80,000 brisbane RL fans and the RLWC getting more viewers around the world than the other one.......you need to keep your feet on the ground. If you don't like the idea of London RL being compared then how about Victoria?
Melbourne has a massive population, also drawn from around Australia and the globe.....more people watch soccer there than the storm...they are on the up and that's brilliant, but once their honeymoon was over they struggled for 4 years on sub 10k's.....
.....all I am saying is that when you get the nod, as you will, THAT is when the hard work starts.

Quote: dally messenger "another great thread ruined by blatant trolling'"

In your opinion.
You were the first one to mention Union in this thread...you were also the first to call posters names for daring to have an opinion different to yours, you are the one trying to attract the attention of the mods because someone dares to have a different standpoint to yours.

Newsflash....this isn't your forum. It's a place for PUBLIC DISCUSSION. As for mentioning the bad bits of League...read the quote in my signature........the bit about "bagging".

how do you do ignore?

Had a productive meeting this evening with the WARL and pleased to say the bid is moving on nicely with plenty of corporate support getting on board. The local media are poised to jump on the bandwagon when an official call for expansion bids is made. Everything looking good, just need a decent IC and lots of TV $'s now!
