Playing catch up with themselves = massive fail.
After taking on the AFL's finals system and forming a similar independent commission, NRL clubs are adopting the membership drives of their rival code by connecting with their communities to boost their finances.
NRL marketing manager Michael Johnstone said: ''A lot of the [NRL] clubs have visited AFL clubs,
Canterbury had just 1000 members, however after modelling their community engagement on AFL giants such as Hawthorn and Collingwood, have already passed .....

Thanks raiderdave for informing me that nrl actually had this system first and therefore own it, and that the afl actually copied it for the betterment of their code flattery indeed. It also goes to show the nrl take initiative and even when they have a great system they're ready to explore potential for other ways and not ashamed to return if those other ways dont work as good. Real initiative.
I wonder what the afl will copy next? Perhaps the indigenous all stars match? Or I heard murmerings there's thoughts of trying an nrl inspired SOO concept. And we all know the afl has been trying to copy the nrls amazing international success but alas the name of the sport lets em down each and everytime. Australian Rules Or even worse AFL whats that? A sport or a registered organisation? It sure as hell cant be both!
