This is not something I would consider lightly but considering all the evidence is has become apparent that there simply is no other choice for the now almost insolvent RugbyWA to let go of the noose and chain and move on.
As much as I am disappointed that the ARU betrayed RugbyWA I am equally disappointed that out leaders in RugbyWA were all too willing to sign over our IP and trademark rights to the ARU when we knew they were never on our side, for that I feel the people who were there when that decision was made should leave RugbyWA immediately and resign, a lot of people suspected it would result in foul play, a lot of fans questioned the decision, but ultimately our own governing body signed our death bed and put us in a position which resulted in the ARU taking away our beloved franchise. I am happy to forgive those people as it was ONE mistake, unlike the many attempts from our own custodians to wipe us from the history books and delete our franchise from existence.

·******** Rugby WA accepted Arbitration when let’s be honest they should have contested the Alliance agreement in the supreme court in full, not back down to the ************************ from NSW and let him determine that the alliance agreement would stand and that the ARU were free to terminate the force [If we as a state were going to fight, then we should have actually fought, Arbitration is what pansies do when they are too gutless to take on the opposition and it made a mockery of our legal position! ************************************************** ***********************************************

So it leads me to question RUGBY WA themselves, why? Why are we still affiliated with RugbyAU or shall I say the EARU? I challenge Rugby WA to come up with the reasons why we still stand beside a governing body hell-bent on eradicating us? If you think the Melbourne Rebel sale was questionable then I say the exact same thing to RugbyWA, standing beside the ARU/EARU/Rats Anus/ is just as questionable, infact it makes no sense, infact it actually makes less sense than the dodgy Rebels deal which was made to benefit a small pocket of people, by standing next to the RugbyAU I see no benefit moving forward. Simply saying we pay less for insurance is a cowards answer, WHAT DO WE STAND TO GAIN BY STANDING WITH THE GOVERNING BODY THAT NOT ONLY ERRADICTAED OUR PROFESSIONAL TEAM, BUT BANKRUPTED US AND FORCED US TO PAY BACK EVERY CENT/ IF NOT MORE IN LEGAL FEES?
