No offence, Cats but it is hardly big news that NZ are pushing for a 2nd team.

They have been working towards it for quite a while.

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



have they? Since the Wellington bid failed last time around (and the muted idea of having it in SL was coshed) I haven't heard anything about a bid for a 2nd NZ team until this.

When the NRL decide to expand and let's hope it's soon they should in my opinion pick Perth and a team from NZ.

None taken.
I know this has been around for a while, but it's always good to keep people aware of events icon_wink.gif
Personally I think this has got to happen. I'd have the club in Wellington with maybe one or two games going to Christchurch (when the Super 15 club is away).

Christchurch drew a great crowd this season despite miserable weather, any team that comes in (as it will be many many years before a 3rd NZ team) has to tap into the Christchurch market for RL so needs to have a significant presence imo. 8&4 would be the way to go.

yeah i remember him, total dill

its good the nzrl are putting this out there but it needs a backer - where did that european billionaire go to?

after perth and central coast in 2013 id then go ipswich and a 2nd nz side, which would be massive for the nrl

Quote: The Observer "It's excellent that they are pushing on with this again. There's pros and cons of each city individually, . The Waikato has a good rectangular stadium in Hamilton (Wellington and Canterbury are cricket grounds), and a decent junior nursery. However, the Waikato is only a couple of hours from Auckland (130km south).

According to Kiwi poster Te Kaha on the LeagueUnlimited thread rlNZ - The Forgotten Frontier?rl, from post 63, his views were the following (I asked whether North Harbour or the Waikato would be an alternative to Wellington/Christchuch

where ever we put a 2nd side will work, even christchurch

crowds there have been very good for RL games the tigers have taken there.

and the warriors have no problems getting good crowds against the auckland blues

competing with Super 15 isnt a problem for the nrl
