It's a winner. They can have a local rivalry against that Wellington team.

The NRL missed a trick in not adding the Pirates now to a 17 team league. The amount of time, money and effort that I believ has been invested in WA on this potential team is impressive and for them to have to tread water for anohter 4 or 5 years in unacceptable.



As for them playing in Superleague.......the only way thay could have a team in SL is if they buy the London Broncos from David Hughes. Then, they would need to attract 10,000 fans to all home games, just to break even.....and even then, they would need special dispensation to field a team packed with foreign talent (kind of like HKA).



I reckon Hughes would sell the club for a pound if he believed they were going to invest and be there for the long term......can't see it happening myself.

They'd obviously play in Scotland

Surely Pirates of Penzance?

you can post without referring to us as HKA you know it is getting a bit boring now

Scarborough Pirates? What's Len Casey doing these days?

stupid idea, unrealistic, costly, unfair and almost certainly doomed to failure.



you can see why the rfl would be keen

....it will never get boring so ong as you continue to nibble

Due to my fame, wealth and love for RL, I will be entering a team into Superleague in 2013.



They will be based in my hometown of Maniitsog in Greenland and play in waistcoats.



The Maniitsog Inuit's will take SL by storm.

Was old told that Tony Sage the owner of this consortium is looking to take over salford !?!
