Quote ="JB Down Under"Good question. Maybe they get the sense the bears thing isn't going to happen so they see the opportunity now and are ceasing it. Maybe they realise they need to grow their supporter base and there is a big area of RL fans 1hr away that is ripe for linking up with, maybe it is just coincidence? Who knows. What does really surprise me is that the bears didn't move their NSW cup team to Gosford when Melbourne announced they were leaving.'"
Ask yourself why Newcastle didn't go in there before Melbourne did for their 2 years.
I suspect Newcastle did nothing until the threat of a team starting up in Gosford has been deemed to be real this time. Whether it be a start-up or a relocation.
