    $600m will do that. It's kind of a freeroll for the NRL, if it works cool, if not just shut it down when the NRL funding runs out.

    No one is going to want to go there.

    600mil in pie and ticket subsidies instead plz.

    Hope png works though. Reckon the kumuls + 2 marquee signings could come anywhere but last?

    What Marquee signings are going to want to live in a 3rd world country? It's been hard enough to get people to move to Aukland or Townsville...

    They are gonna need to pay a bloke like Kobe Hetherington 900k a year. PNG is a fucked idea. Someone with the IQ of your standard PNG resident came up with it.
     
  6. Magic AJ Parker

    If they secured the tax free status for players I reckon they will do ok...
     
  7. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    I have no idea, money talks etc.

    It was more a question of competitiveness, does anyone think that the Kumuls side with say Mitch Moses at half back and Fisher Harris at prop would come anywhere but last?
     
  8. Toolman TR Man

    They'll be based in Townsville and take like half of their home games to PNG and fly in the day before, there's no way anyone's going to live there.
     
  9. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Yeah I kind of assumed Cairns but have no real idea what the set up is up that way with training infrastructure/airports/running water.
     
  10. Jake A Pimpkins

    Pretty sure Vlandiddy has said they will be based in PNG.

    Get rid of golden point

    O'Sullivan fit? Think he's a better pick than Milford
     
  13. Magic AJ Parker

    That game was not a good advertisement for Golden Point. Both sides completely stopped playing footy from about the 70th minute onwards and Gee stopped policing the ruck.

    RIP Rob Burrow. Great player, and great bloke from what I've read.

    Absolutely horrid disease, I hope we find a prevention/cure soon.

    TPJ to Dolphins for the rest of the season.

    Hynes is poor under pressure. No two ways about it.
     
  17. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Yeah he was no where near with that conversion. Wasn't a great look.

    He has booted winners/field goals before, origin seems to have shaken him though.

    I still tend to think his best role is clearly 7 and Nicho in the 6

    The people saying Riki shouldve been sent off have a very good case, given the Walsh tackle. Murray didnt even have the ball, and Riki didnt bend his back.

    Down the rabbit hole we go. NRL has brought this on itself.
     
  19. Tartmaster AJ James

    The replay they showed was dodgy, but if there’s contact to the head that absolutely should be a send off.
    Riki’s action are so much worse.
     
  20. Magic AJ Parker

    Walters said should've been a send off but no suspension.

    Bloke is so loopy, just watching him in the post match press conference... I've got so many questions as to how the fuck they made a grand final last year with him in charge.
