THE North Sydney Bears are set for a shock return to top flight football – via the Gold Coast.
RLW has learned that there are moves for the Bears to buy out the struggling Titans franchise – and rename the team the Gold Coast Bears.
The team will continue to play out of the Gold Coast, but may also take several games a season to the Bears’ home base on the NSW Central Coast.

Well, the Titans are pretty much a NSW side already.
 
I wonder what other implications it would have....North Sydney are already merged with Manly.

Didn't that all fall to bits back when Manly dropped the Northern Eagles crap?

I don't know....You're probably right I don't follow other teams too closely I never heard that happened.

EDIT: Yeah you're right I looked it up.

Well it would mean they'd have a much better name and colours. Plus if they lose Kane Elgey they mas as well shut up shop anywhere.
 
If history is anything to go by the Bears won't be on the gold coast for too long.
 
They would probably get bigger crowds or at least not have to fudge the crowd figures for a quality stadium.

Did they get busted counting the staff and players too?
 
Nah I remember that a few years ago they were inflating their crowd numbers to the NRL and when they got busted ended up blaming it on a faulty turnstile or something.
 
It is easy to see why Broncos fans are disliked so much when you read threads like these. Always keen to kick clubs when they are down. The Titans are like your special needs relative who you throw food at when you see them at Christmas lunch.
 
Yeah, let's take more games to NSW... knowing that Florimo fuckwit, it will start with all the "good" games being played in Gosford and eventually all the games will be played there.

Bears have been kicked out of the comp twice, so let's make it a three peat.

I have no issue with the Titans being sold, but not to bring more NRL to Sydney and burbs.

Well when you got several teams and their supporters over the years looking to put the boot into you at every opportunity ever since your entry into the competition your bound to care less about how they feel over time.
