If the Ipswich bid is well constructed it will be Reds and Jets as I am sure the NRL would prefer a second Brisbane team over an 11th NSW team, just like the Titans bid which was weaker than the CC Bears bid but was given another year to improve.

I think because of the GWS threat the Bears will get in shores up the Bears old territory and the Central Coast. The Bears bid atm actually reminds me of the Titans bid where most people actually can see them as favourites for expansion.

So in all
2013
CC Bears and W A Reds (these two have ready built stadiums already and the CC have 2200 members already)

2017
West Brisbane (I associate Jets with Newtown) personally I like Wolves
North Brisbane Dolphins

1. Independent Commission and existing teams vote "no" to more expansion teams in 2013.

2. Bears don't get a spot as they're too close too Sydney and cannot proves they'll survive there.


It would have nothing to do with QLD.
