there would be no hope...in a year of sundays...in a decade of sundays...in a century of sundays....in a millennium of sundays that Melbourne Storm will be picked and moved to Perth.

Fittler was obviously typing that article with hand on the keyboard and the other hand grasping something else.
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time

Fittler was a great footballer. And nothing else.

Here is a link to the article and some of the more relevant paragraphs.

And, I also had a random thought that the Melbourne Storm has just been bought by a private company and I wonder if they might think about Perth. Especially if Melbourne's support wanes once Bellamy, Smith and co retire, as I reckon it must without the support of such a great coach, great players and such a great culture. The pressure is always on in a mad sporting town and the Storm has had a fair bit of time now to crack it.

If Craig Bellamy does retire (and I wouldn't be surprised if it happens sooner rather than later) he would go immediately to the top of Perth's most-wanted list. Next would be someone that's coached under him; Maguire is the obvious one as he's made of the same DNA.

If the challenge can motivate one of the great coaches to go there, the Western Storm will come to life in a healthy environment.

Western Storm versus Souths. I like the sound of that.

The phrase"random thought" seems to sum that article up well. Maybe he should just stick to being a retired player

I think Fitler should leave the strategic planning to those that understand the concept. What the f*ck would be the point of moving a successful expansion team to another location!??

Yeah move the most successful team from the sporting capital of the country, a one team town, to go to an "unknown" with a brand that will probably not be embraced like a new team would. Whilst alienating the current supporter base... If you lose Melbourne as an NRL team, you have to take the "N" out of NRL. Or better yet, go back to NSWRL. Many morons would be ecstatic with that.

Dumb, just dumb. You can tell it's a "Fitler" idea.

We already have a failing club sharing AAMI during the winter. No need for another one.

Probably the dumbest idea I've heard in a long time - for many reasons. I don't want to give this more credit than it deserves (none) by outlining those reasons.

Bring in the Pirates so people can stop suggesting teams move to Perth.

WTF !! So move Storm to Perth and Parra (for example) to Melbourne?
That's even dumber than Freddie's suggestion.

Maybe they should just move Freddy to Perth
