I must admit, I feel a bit sorry for the South of the Murray brigade(Tiny little bit)(very tiny)(incy), well, not that sorry , in fact its really quiet hilarious. Rupert being pissed off with the NRL has given the Vicheads a false sense of worth.
Rugby League, the dominant force in Australian sport! :cheers:

I have never heard the NRL mention any other sport when they have signed a TV deal, what is with the AFL and it's fans and dick messuring by having to mention a rival code each time?

Talk about fear, you merkins just signed the biggest TV deal in the history of Aus (so far hahaha) and the first thing they do is mention another sport, I mean, WTF?

Even today the AFL website has articles mentioning the NRL, I mean, what is wrong with you and your sport that you have to mention Rugby League over and over and over again, it's almost like an obsession, that's the damn truth aye.

I can't wait to see what the NRL gets, I'm sure we will all be surprised.

Funny NRL 360 mentioned the AFL last night - they even went so far to say the NRL had stuffed up the TV rights in comparison to the AFL would have to be regarded as now a big gulf between the 2. That the NRL would be lucky to get 1.6 bil and that it would equate to the AFL getting 118 mil more a season than the NRL. So I guess the comparison does get made Para.

Old Rupy definitely was bitter at the Channel 9 deal. Which is why he was at the AFL one.

they don't talk about AFL because they know they don't stand a chance. A futile goal so why bring it up.
