Re: 20th AFL Team - Expansion

NRL expansion club, Storm, done well, but really the NRL’s equivalent of the Giants. Don't know why you keep pushing this crap, Azif you know what you...

Re: 147 people

Plonk a team in Western.Sydney with dorky Melbourne style marketing. Like seriously. Was it ever going to work?

Re: How many AFL players could get a 2 point field goal?

It is a harder goal to score than any AFL goal. No points for hitting the side post and it has to be over a crossbar too. Not only that, it's not like getting a mark like in AFL where play stops when you take a shot at a goal with no crossbars. You have to rush it because guys are ready to tackle y...

Re: When will legendary tough fumbler Barny Hall learn

Is probably better AFL guys just box other AFL players. When you play rugby league, you are much more used to taking hard hits to the body body than an AFL player. You are constantly running into guys weighing 90 plus kg. While in AFL, tackling is rare.

Re: Americans don’t give a rat’s ass about the NRL

So many salty AFL media types over the NRL's success in Las Vegas. AFL is even looking at doing the same thing. Now if the NRL wasn't successful in America, why are AFL looking to copy??

Re: the NRL is now the premier domestic sport to watch in NZ

I've been to NZ many times and there is plenty of coverage of the for NRL. Is behind Rugby Union of course but a lot do like league too. AFL is pretty much non existent there.

Was so good to see the Manly beat Woke Melbourne.

Great win, Sea Eagles 26-20 Storm. Battle of Brookvale has a long history of close games and this was no different. When you think about it, the Northern Beaches has everything woke Melbourne doesn't. Great surfing beaches, Suburban grounds, Summer vibes, Team cheerleaders. It's like the California ...

Re: giggleball legend fumes because NRL is leading the way

The only way AFL can do a State Of Origin is to have an East vs West battle. WEST (WA, SA, NT) vs EAST (Vic, NSW, Qld, Tas) Maybe call is STATES OF ORIGIN.. Is really no other way it can be done. So then every area is included in Australia, and still a battle of talent. States of Origin is a very g...
