Should never have rejected Edelstein's offer - better Sharks having his money than Bryne .

Less annoying for the general public as well..by God 'that' voice - nails on a chalkboard or PM Dullard are the only things I can think of that are worse!

Then again Bryne would be a big crowd boost

They had Peter Gow in charge at the time. Doc probably had his eye on Gow's daughter Elle MacPherson.

Been a while in this thread. Why no death lately?

Was an article in the Tele this weekend foreshadowing a "respectable" $1m loss.

I saw that. And if that's in a year when they got the advance from the developers, it's a real worry.

$10 to watch them play this weekend to mark Paul Gallen's ten years as a first grader. Still not worth it!

Perth Sharks for 2013 with CC Bears & BNE 2.0 to make a 18 team comp!
I don't care how much market research shows that Reds is popular in WA Egan - Shirley Sharks could be as popular if not more and it's better for the game.
Will add $100million to the next TV deal & is so simple to do - no brainer.
Why aren't the NRL still ponying up $8million for teams to relocate / merge like this post-1998?

If Cronulla wanted to be on the CC, the CC Bears' bid would fail.

Instead, Cronulla have decided to simply survive, beg to HQ from time to time, make every year a struggle and whore themselves to whichever gullible local Council will put up with them for one game a year. This is known as the North Melbourne Option.
