A PNG team will never happen, not financially viable.

Yeah seen it before, the government pledged their support during the world cup, from memory. It'll never happen though.
Shame really, I'd love them to be in there, the most fanatical support in RL.

Is there also a chance of violence / crowd trouble like we have seen before in PNG. |

| Culture, not violence 
Their life is heavilly invested in RL with their tribal villiages playing each other. When the roos turn up it's a sell out and people outside insist on still going in so they riot, there is a youtube video somewhere showing them rioting.
An NRL franchise would have security in place to combat this. if only money wasn't an issue, they'd make a great franchise. |

Well im sure if they were given the chance of an NRL team they would stay sensible and not ruin their opportunty with stupid riots.
Suppose they'll be needing qutie a big shiny stadium to hold the amount of fans an NRL team would attract.

Immigration laws stopping PNG players AUSTRALIAN immigration laws are denying Papua New Guinea rugby league players their dream to play in the NRL while others turn to the UK as it's easier to gain entry.
A number of PNG's top players can not play in the NRL or run with feeder clubs because tough visa restrictions require large cash bonds to guarantee compliance with the law.
Kumuls centre Jesse Parker is the latest PNG player to claim visa restrictions are stopping him trialling at a NRL club, St George Illawarra.
PNG rugby league chairman Albert Veratau told AAP at least ten of the country's top players have been denied access to play in Australia due to visa restrictions.
One PNG rugby league official joked players could sign up to Australia's pilot Pacific seasonal workers scheme designed to assist the agriculture industry.
"Pick fruit in the week and play footy on weekend, perhaps, as a way around the problem," he said.
During Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's 2008 PNG trip he said one of the strongest links between the two countries was rugby league.
Rudd gave $260,000 to PNG rugby league for facilities and equipment like boots, jumpers and shorts.
PNG's business, sporting and political elite are also pushing for a PNG-based team entering the NRL by 2012.

Now that's different to an exclusive PNG team and has greater potential.
What is the potential for Darwin? Demographics, bums on seats, advertising etc.
