Here’s the latest I can summarize based on recent reporting:
- James Bracey is listed as a director connected to the Perth Bears project, with coverage noting his role on the inaugural board and ongoing involvement in Perth Bears’ preparations ahead of their NRL entry.[2][3]
- He’s also been mentioned in relation to the North Sydney Bears as a board member and media figure, illustrating his ongoing engagement with rugby league both on and off the field.[4][5][8]
If you’d like, I can dig up more precise dates or pull direct excerpts from those articles to verify timelines and roles. I can also look for recent official Perth Bears or NRL statements to confirm current board membership and any public updates from 2026.
