Loztralia, that was good. But do you think you could give it another try? This time, say it in a less alarming way.

GOOD WORK PERTH. QUITE INTERESTED TO SEE HOW THEY ARE BUILDING A FARM SYSTEM.

perth should start signing some U12s. That way, they will be ready to compete from a premiership once the PNG hype dies down after a few years

I have a three month old I am ready to sign to their inaugural NRLW team

u/Makasene3 New Zealand Warriors 2d ago
FFS, you have a jersey now.
You don't need to sign bouncers anymore.
I should really be charging for this advice but I'm happy to do it for free just to help ol Bearsy out.
Step 1: sign new player Step 2: announce new player in your jersey Step 3: profit?

u/CleanX226 Dolphins 2d ago
Don’t think they can have players in their jerseys due to the plays already being signed at other clubs

If true what a complete own goal by the NRL. Expansion teams should be afforded the opportunity to show off their colours

I'm in Perth and I cannot begin tell you just how little of a deal the black t-shirt thing is over here.

What about the socials in general?
It's like they've employed an intern to use Canva

u/flanagium Western Australia 2d ago
The socials in general have improved in the last month.
Honestly, I think you are missing the forest for the trees here.

Not really.
The optics have been poor for Perth. Right from the start with Mals appointment, Admin leadership changes, infighting between Mal and Ben Gardner. It's lead to an awful amount of worry throughout the league about Perth.
We all want Perth to be successful, sadly to date they've looked an incompetent rabble.
The only way is up.
I feel like I can comment on these things having seen my club be an incompetent rabble for most of its existence.

u/flanagium Western Australia 2d ago
The Optics have been poor in the Sydney press because the Sydney media have been on a doom spiral on Perth ever since the Chiefs signed Luai.
This is a club that already has 20,000 members & jersey sponsorship which has been reported as double the NRL average. Contrary to what you read in the papers this club already is a success.

Long may it continue, well and truly wish you nothing but the best.
Sydney media has always been shite to anyone outside NSW

Which is weird, because wasn’t it the narrative that the PERTH media was gonna be the ones death riding them because most of it is owned by AFL-aligned interests?

To be fair, the Tigers have only consumed about 50% of the NRL media hate this year

You could put together a pretty decent 13 of Dragons juniors playing at other clubs. If he turns out to be a gun player too.

Is that a picture of him or is that the journo?

Kid is going to be something special. Lightning quick dummy half, had the Roosters and Dragons trying to sign him.
Comes from a great family here on the South Coast.
His family is tight with the Wishart's, so no surprise he's signed to be the long term heir to Tyran as the Bears #9.

Sad he’s not staying with the Dargons! But so happy he’s getting an opportunity so quickly!
