Message: [QUOTE="dukey, post: 2120299, member: 2046"] I know what you mean about League fans being fairweather, but it's still far better established in Sydney than it will be out west. Not so much in Perth, who do have a strong local league, but in Adelaide. They are mad about AFL there and I can't see any SA based NRL side being strongly supported without immediate, overwhelming success. If the NRL wants to move into new territory I'd suggest Darwin first, perhaps that joint venture Darwin-PNG team that was mooted recently, simply because its a population that has not yet aligned itself with a particular code. The Titans have been a great success because the Gold Coast had no top flight sports outfits to compete with. Darwin are even more starved for a nationally competing sports team. And before you get the corporate support, you need the support of the locals. [/QUOTE]
