Well, what a week. And, let's be honest, none of it was the club's doing. PNG landed a big fish, and all of a sudden, the Perth Bears pile on went into overdrive. It's a case of Perth-ception vs. Reality. So where do we come down?

Also, we have our very guest! Sam Wykes played 87 games for the Western Force and joined the show to offer his unique insight into the challenges involved in relocating to Perth and the types of issues the Perth Bears will need to be across when players uproot their lives to the West.

Chapters:

1:45 - The Bears 'bad' week and how PNG's big Jarome Luai coup has altered perception ('Perth-ception') around the Bears and their roster

5:45 - Lucrative pay vs opportunity and how our recruitment philosophies are unique

8:00 - There's a lot of Moneyball in what we've done with our roster so far

12:25 - Sam Wykes joins to provide insight around relocating to Perth and the challenges for not just players but their families

25:30 - Does Sam buy our supposed Central West NSW nucleus?
