"We're Called The NATIONAL Rugby League, But We Shouldn't Be": MG Ramps Up Calls For NRL Expansion
ON THE RUSH HOUR WITH MG
Mark Geyer has called for the NRL to give itself a shot in the arm and expand immediately.
The former Western Reds player has told Triple M, there's no better way to announce expansion, for the coming years, ahead of State of Origin II set to take place in front of a sell-out crowd in Perth at Optus Stadium.

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa

A great idea, well done Mark Geyer...
Had a yak to MG one day at Allen Field when Matt Geyer was playing for Freo Roosters. He had his young bloke with him and the way he was with that little kid it was hard to imagine how he could turn into such a raving looney once he crossed the chalk. He's far from alone I suppose. Built himself quite a media career and good at it.

@ Shasta; I'd like them to bring the Western Reds back, or would you prefer the West Coast Pirates brand?
Japan and the Pacific Islands for Aussie Super 9's!
Let's have one of these in WA! Click this link: Saitama Super Arena - New Perth Stadium?
I'm with you. Always liked the connection to the (mostly) WA roo. When I first came to WA 42 years back, I saw a real giant at Waroona Dam. I couldn't believe how big it was. The impression stuck.
Tone down the jersey a bit though. Didn't like the licorice all-sort look much.

I'm a little surprised they changed the bid to the Pirates brand, would prefer they kept the WA/Perth Reds branding of the bid.
Pirates would be a marketing dream, especially to get kids involved. Mascots, merchandise (eye patches, bandannas, swords, parrots, peg legs), team and supporter songs that sound like sea shanties, there argh so many options..
