About time in Perth. I’d have them come in before PNG -
agreed I would have Perth in 2028 and PNG 2029/2030

I wonder if NRL will push Perth for upgraded Rectangle Stadium

MASSIVE NEWS IN RUGBY LEAGUE

PERTH BEARS AND PNG TO ENTER NRL COMP

Detailed plan to be revealed in JUNE

* Perth Bears 19th licence
* NRL sets up PNG taskforce
* Government contracts to be written up in place for funding
* PNG 18th team
* Plans for 19-team league by 2030

ARL wants two additional NRL franchises by 2030.

It’s expected that Team 18 would be a Papua New Guinea side introduced in 2026 or 2027.

Team 19 would then be a side based in Perth, possibly a joint bid with the North Sydney Bears
I like PVL
hes hasn't got much wrong in his tenure as ARLC chair ... but this PNG thing is the worst ... the ... worst decision the game might make
( hopefully sense prevails ) since the super league war ...

9/10 NRL fans don't want a team in a dangerous , crime ridden , poverty ridden 3rd world country
yes
they're RL fanatics , but that doesn't mean we piss a license up againt the wall in some geo political , virtue signaling partnership with that clown of a PM to further his standing with the US in the fight with China ... we have using tax payer money

a home venue not up to standard with no plans to improve it
no one will want to play for them , they will have to be based in PNG to be legitimate & who in their right might would want to live in Port Moresby ?

Jesus PVL , you're kidding mate
what are you thinking ?

when it does pass reps ( labor have the numbers ) , the senate will have their say & its far from getting across the line there ,
Jackie .. whadaya think ?
I think it stinks
Dave Pocock ?
its garbage right ?

PNG kids need clean drinking water , an education ... crime levels to come down by raising living standards
not the Aust tax payer putting their hard earned into making Australian sportsmen rich instead of the above ... its obscene

I see class action written all over this.
PNG is a lawless country, it's just not a safe enough place to be encouraging sports fans to visit.
The Australian government and the NRL have a duty of care to ensure fans visiting PNG will be safe.
Any guarantee of safety is virtually impossible for fans in the hazardous violent homicidal streets of Port Moresby.
PNG is dangerous and has one of the highest crime rates in the world.
If the NRL encouraged fans to visit then that amounts to extreme negligence and if a violent or deadly incident occurred then the door would be open for some expensive lawsuits .
Bring back the Bears.
Brisbane Bears
Fitzroy colours

DFAT will just warn Australians to be vigilant when travelling there like they do with any citizen going to a dangerous overseas country for any reason. No one is forcing any fans to go there for games & if they do , their safety is their responsibility. I don't think many Australians will go there for games , they'll watch on TV at home. The Players association may have a say , the NRL is already planning building a gated community under lock & key with armed guards for the players , their families .. & staff to live in .. with more of your money :cool:
I read some recently retired players were asked if they'd live there in that set up with their families & all of them said they wouldn't , not even for more money then playing in Australia.

its on a knifes edge atm
I hope it doesn't happen , its immoral.

the issue with this is of course that most people will go to News.com.au (free access) rather than the local version of their paper, which likely requires a oaid subscription.The reak surprise is how high the Nyt is

Still find it surprising that so many Australians go to the AFL official site for their news. 👍

Where is the so called number 1 code, based on the rubbish spewed from Vlandys and the tv ratings average metric alone? lol
