Failed with a 15k average and a shyte team LOL.

Had the funding pulled because of the need to keep real clubs.

Crowds dropped in their second and final season to 7k. More than half the supporters stopped going and the Adelaide Rams folded after just two seasons. Wow, NRL expansion has been an amazing success... NOT!!!

And you still wonder why Foxtel considers Rugby League a downmarket product compared to the jewel in Australian sport... the AFL.

Yep, that's after they knew the team was getting axed, but you knew that and still tell porkies.

Shows what a low life you really are I suppose.

Back tomorrow to laugh at, and put shit on you and your giggleball.

More like the novelty wore off and the people realised what a boring sport Rugby League really is. Those crowds were on par with NRL crowds in Sydney. Says it all doesn't it.

Crowds dropped to less than half the first season average with less than 7k attending. Not a failure? Talk about a dipshit.

You ought to concern yourself with the fact that 15 of your 16 NRL clubs are broke. What a pathetic state of affairs.

Head in the sand still I see.

Wests Tigers director David Trodden, the spokesman for the clubs, said: ''The clubs were of the belief that there was a funding facility in place to allow that to happen, but there is a bit of doubt about that now.

''What I do know is that having 15 of 16 [clubs] losing money is not sustainable in the long term. The days of leagues clubs putting their hands in their pockets have gone. They are not going, they are gone.''
