Gold Coast Bears?

[Unbreakable]

You have to be kidding me.

While I think that is one of the most hypocritical statements on this site, I won't go any further.

You want to talk about what's best for Rugby League? that isn't the Titans.

The Titan's are a disgrace. They are currently being propped up by the NRL because they have repeatedly shit the bed. Every time the **** up there is a scape goat, they claim to have learnt there lesson and the fucking do it again.

The have ripped off locals and have absolutely no identity that relates to the region they supposedly represent.

The best thing for Rugby League would for them to be abandoned, not just re-badged with games taken into NSW, abandoned and start from scratch.

I agree that an additional team to the Broncos is needed in this region but the license for that team needs to be taken away from the Titans and any remnants to that team removed. Keep guys like Elgey & Ash Taylor, make them the poster boys for this new team, where-ever it is actually physically located and make it a QLD team. A team that is comprimised of at least 50% qlders, preferably more. A team that identifies with local community and businesses, instead of ripping them off. A team that nurtures and grows their fanbase through on-field performance and community work, as opposed to 'Bronco Haters'.

That is what is best for Rugby League, not that shit stain of a club down the road whose biggest turnouts are when opposition fans travel.

I take 'pot shots' because Titans fans don't want to hear the truth.

That's definitely a valid point about the Titans not really feeling like a "Queensland" team. Their captain was Greg Bird for gods sake, who's probably the 2nd most hated NSWanker behind Paul Gallen, how can you expect Queensland fans to embrace that and love the team.

The only true Queenslanders the Titans have had since Prince & Rogers retired in 2011 are Dave Taylor, Ashley Harrison & Nate Myles everyone else is either an Islander, NSW player or a nobody.

Bird, James, Sezer, J.Roberts, Mead, Mortimer.. It was virtually a NSW squad last season..

With that being said they did try and re-gain that Queensland feel this season, off-loaded Sezer & Roberts, added McQueen, Shillington, A.Taylor - And obviously should've got Cherry-Evans.

There is no doubt the Titans management have run the club into the ground. They haven't been able to develop any young QLD talent or sign any quality QLD talent. They've destroyed the link with the Gold Coast community as well. I fail to see what that has to do with their fans. They are the victims in this.

 

[BroncosAlways]

I know, they need to think of the impact this will have on their fan.

I laughed way too hard at this.

They can't possibly be fair dinkum about moving games away from the GC.

Why? It's not like anyone is showing up to watch the useless bastards on the GC.

It doesn't really help that the majority of the Gold Coasts population are probably retirees and people moving interstate.

I've been going down the Gold Coast almost everyday for the past couple of weeks and I hear and see absolutely nothing about the Titans.

I stay about 15 minutes away from the stadium, and there is nothing.

I see more stuff for the Suns, but strangely enough just as much for the Lions. Go figure.

 

[Waynesaurus]

I honestly think they need to ditch 'Gold Coast' as being part of the club name as well, its a tainted and damaged brand.
