It should be good and I hope they stay close to their colours and outfits from SL days, it means I can take the gear out of the cupboard.

Great to hear.

I'll try and get to some games when in Sydney next year.  I would love to see a WA team back in the NRL, make it a truely national comp.

I dont know how sucessful it will be as wa DOES NOT HAVE THE POPULATION like melb with Dockers, eagles Force all comnpeting for winter fans.  If the Nrl ran in summer id say it would be followed heavily.  Only glory and wildcats to attend to then and I dont think it would be hard to compete with that

[MENACING*STORM]

It will be good to see the Reds back in the comp.  If the Reds can attract a niche market (A mixture of Off-season Glory, Force & WARL supporters) of about 15K, it will be a step in the right direction.

So with the Gold Coast and Perth Reds coming back, does that mean the Adelaide Rams are next?

Reds are still doubtfull for national comp they have to get the suport in the Jim beam cup.  I think there is a few fans here but winter very difficult and remember all those glory and wildcats fans are normaly member of eith Dockers or the Eagles.  Plus wthe Force has a heavy following here too.  In fact the state is more union orienrtated

If they do we'll have to dust off the "Southern States Cup"
