It's not very different what happened with Fitzroy with the North Sydney Beears.

Absolutely NOT.

The North Sydney Beears ceased elite competition when they unmerged with Manly.
Fitzroy continued playing elite football.

It's not the same, but the Bears did continue, and will continue, to play in the second level NSW cup, so it's not like they stopped exisiting.

I'm repeating myself but it's true, if an AFL club lunched in Canberra today it'd be a similar size to the Raiders from day one, maybe even a little bigger with good management and a bit of luck.

This point made it over to League Unlimited.

The comments reinforce what you say. NRL takes Canberra for granted. LU folks seem to think of Canberra as one NRL bloc rather than the multi-code city it is.

There’s probably a few zealots over there just like there is over here.

Don’t think a few posters on LU are “the NRL”.
