We will certainly see the funny side of it when the government changes here and the new government put an end to the crook labor spending spree that's made this team a possibility. Â
What will happen if our Government cut their funding ?  It's not as if there are big corporate backers over there that's going to prop them up for the love of it.  Can't see any of their local  big banks , fuel or mining corporations seeing much financial value in being on their jerseys playing in a predominantly off shore competition.  Maybe I'm wrong , but how I see it is , our taxes stop paying ,that club folds. Not a very secure gig for some of these players.Â

Australia gives over a Billion dollars to PNG every year Wiz, from that respect no government is going to change the deal, imagine all the people in PNG up in arms against an Australian Govt that takes away their football team.
It's one of the smartest things a government could do and only an idiot like Albo could possibly get away with it!...... I honestly cannot imagine a conservative govt actually doing what he has done, but they would not dare change it either.
Now the Greens are another matter, they could cause a war with their "shit for brains".
No no Poppa, just decided to not do politics on this site haha. I am not a Greens supporter in the slightest. All i will say is they are always last on my ballot paper.
I can assure you that ON will end this quick smart should they manage to win power. They may not end the current deal, but I'll bet my house if they don't end the current  they won't renew it. And seriously , who gives a toss whether the people of PNG are upset with us for not giving them money for their team.  What will they do , send us a stern letter of disapproval? Or will they refuse to take our billion you claim we give them ?Â
The joints a third world backwards shithole. Â They also lock homosexuals up for a decade for being homosexuals , so I can't see Pauline being overly scared of them calling her names should ON take government and cut their funding.Â
I also wonder why the lefty Albo fans aren't upset with him pledging so much money to a nation where homosexuality is still a criminal offence ? Â The very vocal and forever whinging queen of the NRL Ian Roberts hasn't said a single word . He's usualy so vocal about anything "homophobic " in the game when it suits him. Maybe he's treading carefully due to his business that survives on NDIS money .Â
A Harold Matt's player calls someone whis not gay a " gay c*nt " in the heat of the moment and Ian writes a 2 page sookathon in the telegraph , Albo pledges over half a billion to a team wheras an actual gay player will spend a decade in prison and Ians silent. Â
WTF !Â

I'll stand by my view, the politics of the NRL are all about Chinese Bases and the like and really the football thing is a liason exercise that is not cheaper than your house.....you have lost that house so many times, you must be classed as a squatter now LOL
And I'll stand by mine that Albo handing our money over for a shit nrl team isn't going to stop China doing deals in PNG.Â
In the scheme of things , this pissweak little team and our contribution is minimal. Hardly claims a country as off limits to world powerhouses 😂😂

It's sad seeing the line up PNG is assembling compared to the bears lol
I can see the funny side of it lol, Liv golf of rugby league 😂
We support Parra, seeing the funny side is all we got 😂

Don't tell me your Greens supporter LB...... Obvious;y I am talking about Canberra, this is a NRL site!
