Re: but but but expansion

Australian Rules has a national footprint in Australia played right across the country but indeed does struggle outside those bordered I find it quite idiotic for NRL fans to skite about rugby league overseas. Shouldn't rugby league in England be skiting about r.l. in Australia and around the world...

Re: Afl an olympic sport ..so many lols

I think the IOC have lost it with the inclusion of pseudo sports. Rugby 7s, basketball 3s, junior soccer and even beach volleyball etc. Any team sport that has a superior world cup shouldn't be in the Olympics IMO it's just shameful grab for attention. Instead of bastardising the summer Olympics the...

Re: AFL v RL which code has gotten the most GOVT $$$$?

So getting the GOVt to upgrade something they own . Very clever by the AFL so w.t.f are you laughing about it? The NRL have been very effective in never to put their hands in their pockets for stadiums. I'm not laughing about that, but I do think it'll stop, especially under the present circumstanc...

Sydney NRL clubs arent matching it with the Swans at the corporate level is beyond me.
Advertising agencies say it's all about ratings and exposure.
Large companies are about image association as well as numbers.
It's quite easy to see where sponsors are coming from.

Re: Looking forward sunny days at Brookie. No wonder Melbourne people are always jealous of Sydney.

Sydney has enough good food places to enjoy just like Melbourne. Numbers, arguably yes, but convenience definitely no. Melbourne has numerous precincts that are absolutely great for tourists. Melbourne is a great city for the returning tourist. Sydney is great for the first time tourist. But Melbou...

Unlike round AFL stadiums. Four football codes can use Rectangular stadiums. Gridiron, Soccer, Union & League. Unlike round NRL stadiums, five football codes can use oval stadiums, Australia Football, Gridiron, Soccer, Union & League plus cricket, baseball and the Olympics.In fact, if it's ...

Re: Roosters bring AFL star out of retirement

Now Izzy was and out and out failure. I disagree. Because Hunt and Folau didn't star people say they were abject failures. Hunt was serviceable and even stared once or twice. Folau, never found rhythm but he was better than Mike Pike when he began his AFL career. Pyke persisted and became an AFL pr...

Re: GWS / SUNS >> How much more dollars

He did say since inception. ... so I am thinking there is some quirky stat around it being from inception. No And he never mentioned home games either. So I am thinking there is something in that also. So before spouting off I’d just make sure you read the post. But yes, I would like to see the fig...

I think the afl would love to have SoO be as successful or anything as successful as SoO for that matter.
The AFL did have SOO, they invented it and it was highly successful.
Having so many interstate teams killed the demand for an AFL SOO.

Re: GWS / SUNS >> How much more dollars

Interesting fact.
Ever since it's inception the GWS has averaged higher attendances than any NRL club.

That's since inception everybody!!!!!!!

Re: Soo revival .....

Have never been really interested in these silly Victoria vs Allies or All Stars concepts. It's not S.O.O. It's S.O.O. selection maybe but not S.O.O. There is no state "Allies". Fortunately we have state Vs state in the AFL every week. That's why S.O.O. died in the AFL. NRL S.O.O. is two ...

Not much at all.
It used to be reasonably common for people to play Australian Rules Football and then swap over to Norther English Rules Rugby in their latter sporting years in Sydney.

so we had started the game with zero bench.
during the game we had 2 major injuries in the 1st half.
it was the 2nd half they killed us, being fatigued and being outnumbered.
A not that uncommon experience and you cannot penalise a team for having a full squad.
