no! youll find most people play touch for fitness or social reasons & have next to zero interest in league or union!Terry wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2017 11:19 amTouch was used as a training method for both RU and RL worldwide. The first organised competition that took place was run by the South Sydney Rugby League club in the '60's. Hence the rules being more closely aligned to RL.
It is a very useful and important part of RL participation and awareness.

Touch is not rl. The nrl (which is an organisation) bought into a partnership with touch... so nrl oversee it does not make it rl. What happens should touch or the nrl decide to displace this partnership ? You can not define a sport as something based on an agreement. Union claim touch as union... which is equally absurd. So if I play a game of touch in Australia am I playing rl yet playing the same game in Europe I'm playing union? Ridiculous.
So what is touch in other countries? How can it be two things ? Simple question ? Simple answer is touch is touch ... a sport of its own accord.AFLcrap1 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2017 8:12 pmGrasp those straws tighterFred wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2017 7:56 pm

Touch is the non tackle version of Rl
Deal with it .

Same shit
Post
Get shown up
Wait months
Repost same shit
Participation numbers (I have always stated that they are not a true indication)RL & AFL are about the same .
Yet you say RL is low
What is wrong with your brain .
RL now throws the participation number line around probably seeing as the afl have for years & wasn't questioned about the bullshiit numbers
IIRC last years annual report had participation numbers at 1.4 mill
Now if you follow your usual insane rant script
You will scream bullshit
Yet take the afl numbers as gospel .
A perfect brainwashed fumblefan
