Orcas are QLD, two-headed inbred upstarts. Wahs are the corrupt nswrl establishment always disrespecting them. The analogy stands.

They sure love their “Reby league” down south with their CCC x Adidas co-labs lol doesn’t scream professional if they don’t even proof anything before releasing it
If I owned the Warriors I would've moved them to Welly after 25 years of failure and they'd be the Orcas now.
Put everyone on a 1 year contract. Effort in or F off.
NRL should'a polled the players down to U21s who would relocate to a compound in Port Moresby, no night life, no women, wives and kids living in effectively house arrest 24/7 for 1 year zero tax.
What about kindy and schooling? PNG schooling, Oz, NZ? Embassy run?
No for me.

Yeah highly doubt many aussies will bring the WAGs and kids to the compound. Could be a recruitment problem for older players. But money talks, no doubt there'll be plenty of deep state sponsorship propping up the operation.

Moffett's comments that the Warriors should have to bid for their license are ridiculous.
I joked on the Balmain/Western Suburbs rift for the Tigers that Western Suburbs should bid for the license if the Wests Tigers fell apart. That was more ingest and also was to point out it was a club struggling financially in the competition over 25 years ago. Also the old too many Sydney teams argument which was always brought up before the ARLC was formed.
Removing a Sydney side if the opportunity arose would provide more options for expansion locations.
Removing a current side would be difficult. The NRL clubs have ownership of the ARLC along with the state leagues. We have seen in the past when the ARLC have pushed too hard some clubs have banded together to try and push out the Commissioners. That led to some concessions so the Commissioners could save their jobs.
The NRL is considering a second NZ side. Moffett's yelling about replacing the current one doesn't achieve the second side and comes off as desperate. After covid the Warriors would be safe. Imagine the headlines after all of the comments of the Warriors saving the game.
I want a second NRL side and after seeing the rivalry between the two A-League sides even more so. The bid sides throwing shade at the existing club don't mean much until the bid gets approved and we get signings and game scheduled.
The lack of success. Yes, it has been frustrating. It also shows how hard the competition is if you don't get things right. Sydney clubs with all of their advantages have also struggled without premierships for decades as well. It just makes all the more satisfying when they do win a premiership.

So more like arguing with an imaginary friend. There are a few posters on here like that.

The David Moffett comments are pure play, stirring the pot to raise the profile of the bid. Take out the silly business and a 2nd team out of NZ makes perfect sense for both profile of the game in NZ and Australia and its commercial rights opportunities. The perfect scenario is a long lead time as with PNG to ensure any potential team is built on strong governance and commercial foundations.
