Perth NRL bid open to Bears liaison, rather go alone – MASHAHER

Peter Cumins, chairman of a Perth consortium hoping to secure a new NRL franchise, is open to a partnership with North Sydney or Newtown but would prefer a stand-alone side.

Cumins was heartened by comments by ARL Commission chairman Peter V’landys reported on Sunday that two more expansion teams by 2030 were on the agenda, with Perth a frontrunner.
