Re: Crazy to think this is considered offensive in Victoria & the AFL. Just embarrassing the Victorian mindset.

:(/



The NRL has gone almost as woke as the AFL and involving politics far to much with in the Sport.

To say Sydney is like America, fried food, most people far over weight and have low IQ!
That sums you up most NRL fans, I have seen or spoken to but some what rough when comparing it to the ...

Good. We don't need this americanised stuff. Our entertainment is on the field. NRL has to look outside the field to desperately try and pack a stadium.


I like that the NRL is Americanized. Probably why it has a much cooler image than the AFL and not seen as so woke..

Re: TV RIGHTS KICK OFF


The arguements I hear against an AFL team in Newcastle are the very reasons why I think there should be one there.

The Giants was a massive stuff up from the start. Agree- Canberra needs a team.


Canberra would be successful, they should be AFLs 20th team. Or even if they moved GWS to Canberra ...

What an in depth list! But still doesn't beat the list of nsw born players for the Swans.
The Swans had a 17 year headstart on the Storm though.

Re: TV RIGHTS KICK OFF


I think a team in Newcastle should happen. Makes sense, good population, away from but close enough to Sydney , has AFL in the community already, and plenty of growth in a nrl heartland. I think you’ll see another team in Adelaide, Northern Territory will come in one form or another, and a long ...

Re: Queenslanders will make up 3 of the top 5 in this years AFL draft



So you have a few extra players in another state of one country lol..
Hardly impressive. Maybe start boasting when you can recruit players from Fiji, England, New Zealand, Samoa, Tonga, Papua New Guinea.

Still a sport that continuously fails to gain any traction in overseas markets :lol ...

Re: Battle of Brisbane: Broncos v Lions v Dolphins


Yeah I agree - any sense of AFL taking over is overblown at best. Has it grown considerably - absolutely - but there is still daylight between the two - far less daylight nowadays but still daylight.


Let's be honest, AFL is a pretty niche sport in Queensland. The NRL has twice the amount of ...
