    WA Reds NRL Bid

    Yes i know this is a union site, but Rugby Union and Rugby League enjoy fans who cross over both sports. Also i have been told that fighting or hatred between sports does not happen as often as in the Eastern States.

    This thread will keep you updated with all the information from about the bid.

    The WA Reds are are favourites to secure one of the two potential new positions in the NRL with the decision due to be announced in June/July and if expansion will go ahead in 2013 the latest a decision will be made is the first week of september.

    NRL 2013

    The WA Reds Are Bidding for a 2013 NRL License

    In 2013 the NRL is anticipated to call for an extra two teams to join the National Rugby League, the WA Rugby League through the WA Reds intend to bid for one of these positions.
    WA is the strongest of the Rugby League playing states outside of the heartlands and also represents one of the best opportunities for expansion, because of the vibrant business community and WA offers a large untapped exposure for the game through potential game attendance, media support and television audience.
    Currently, the organisation has the planning under way and will be ready early in 2011 to present their credentials.
    The management of the WA Rugby League is gearing up for a strong case for Western Australia.

    On the Western Australia Reds NRL Bid.


    The WA Rugby League is ready to take the next step in its campaign to become part of an expanded national competition.
    It will open talks with the State Government next month, hoping to secure a $300,000 fighting fund loan to finance its bid for a side in the National Rugby League that is set to grow from 16 to 18 clubs in 2013 under a new television deal.
    Perth has not had a professional rugby league team since the Super League Western Reds folded in 1997, but the WARL is armed with a business case study it believes presents solid arguments for a new NRL side.
    It commissioned market researchers Synovate to prepare the report and WARL Bid project manager Ralph McManis said the WARL pleased with the outcome.
    “There were certainly no surprises and many positives,” McManis said.
    “We’ve done financial modelling on what we believe is needed for a national team and we are on course.”
    The WARL bid has gathered strong support from within NRL ranks including chief executive David Gallop, who said earlier this year that Perth was a frontrunner in the race.
    He said a new franchise would have to produce a $15-20 million a year turnover but McManis is confident they can achieve that target.
    “We’ve punched the numbers and we believe we can jump through all the financial hoops,” McManis said.
    “We believe it would be more than feasible otherwise we would not be proceeding.”
    The report, that said a new side would pump $22 million a year into the WA economy, found:
    - 38 per cent of the public support the NRL expansion into Perth
    - 6 per cent of the public state they are likely to become members
    - 31 per cent of 18-34 year-olds would attend a home game.
    - 15 per cent of those surveyed follow the NRL
    - 8 per cent were strong and passionate rugby league supporters.
    But the report said that if the WARL was successful it would need to ignite an interest and passion in the game and build momentum and support among the public and business community.
    McManis said he was encouraged by the number of 18-34 year-olds who would go to a game.
    “That’s the next generation. Had the report come back and said the great bulk of support was over 50 then we’d have a problem.
    “But when you know the next generation wants to come your way then that’s really good news,” he said.
    “It’s also encouraging to see how many people would take up membership. One would think the possibility of 20,000 plus members down the track is not unrealistic.”
    The three seasons of the Western Reds was clouded in controversy but McManis said lessons had been learnt.
    “As far as the Western Reds are concerned they are history. They are confined to history. There’s nothing we can take from them,” he said.
    The report says that rugby league trails rugby union by just 3 per cent in terms of interest, support and appeal in the metro area.

    Good draw for us and should get a healthy crowd with all the Q'landers here.
