I think that before a second Brisbane side comes into the comp to divide the game's fanbase in that city, the NRL should look at catering to myself and the 20,220 other residents of Perth who attended the Bunnies V Window Lickers game earlier this year. A Manly fan like yourself at least gets...
Perth's ground is perfect for league. I went to the Bunnies game earlier this year. It's central to the city, recently refurbished, 20,000 capacity... Reminds me of Canberra or Gold Coast stadia.
The support is here too. We set the ground record... Beating every union or soccer game ever played...
If we can get him back at a reasonable price I'd love to have him. He always put his body on the line and gave his all for the team every time he took the field. Hodges doesn't have much time left in him; K Hunt at fullback or in the centres would be a huge plus for us.
Probably the first game I've watched since I got to WA, unfortunately. But I'm glad I watched it. That was a fantastic effort. Oates looks the goods and Gillett seems to be hitting his stride just in time for the off season.
