Re: Why a Gay Pride Round works well in the AFL, but won't work in the NRL

Possibly. The question is do the NRL continue with it. There was the same situation in the AFLW where a player refused to wear the gurnsey for pride round so not unique to Rl, but it is a good question with no definitive right or wrong with suitable arguments in both sides I think there is a right ...

Re: Dolphins making History

If you want to watch the afl you will- but it is the casual viewer who may not realise the gsme is on that being on the main channel helps. I’m like that with Rl in that I may not know Storm are playing but if I see it on will watch - I’m more likely to do this if Storm are on the main channel. I t...

Re: Dolphins making History

4 nrl clubs vs 2 clubs in rugby leagues “heartland”?.. I can accept that NRL is twice as popular in queensland compare to the AFL…for now.. I cant remember reading on this site where anyone said the NRL wouldn't expand? And if they did they were clearly wrong. I am surprised that the NRL didn't exp...

Re: Dolphins making History

Funny watching all the AFL loons have a meltdown. First they said the NRL would never expand, now they've expanded with more teams planned. They just can't accept how much more successful the Dolphins will be than than the Sun's & Giants. 4 NRL clubs vs 2 AFL clubs in QLD now lol... 4 nrl clubs...

AFL is'nt even a real sport outside Australia.
Olympics would be impossible for them.

Re: Is GWS a Canberra team or Western Sydney team?

The Ginats are an embarrassment to sport no matter where they are. However I hope they don't close up shop. It's very amusing watching the fumble ball folk telling the usual lies and trying to talk up the friendless, fanless rabble. I say long live the ginats! We all need a good belly laugh every n...

Re: LET THE ARSE KICKING BEGIN

Dolphins did do well in there first game so well done to them. They even got a half full stadium which is very good for Rugby League standards. But wait till they start losing a lot & become irrelevant which is inevitable. I predict there average crowds will be around 8,000. Still a better star...

Re: Why a Gay Pride Round works well in the AFL, but won't work in the NRL

I think it is a tough one - promoting tolerance is something I think is an important role - however people do have their beliefs - but where do we make a stand. As pointed out, many in South Africa used to point to the bible to support their beliefs around apartheid - would we expect or accept a pe...

Re: Why a Gay Pride Round works well in the AFL, but won't work in the NRL

What did you just say then mate. I got lost after the "AFL has the large Homosexual fanbase" Seriously who cares if that is the case & also what the hell are you talking about. I am sure Liebomber will come to your rescue with some gibberish about more white people playing footy than ...

Re: Peter V’landys: The AFL are scared of competition

Will be interesting to see where V'landys takes the NRL in the next 5 years.
He has definitely turned things around. A true visionary.

Is GWS a Canberra team or Western Sydney team?

I really think the AFL needs to decide where this teams actual base is. Like Canberra is 280 km from Western Sydney. One area is multicultural and working class while the other is full of well off white collar public servants. The AFL should put them in either one city or the other. Like who is goin...

Why a Gay Pride Round works well in the AFL, but won't work in the NRL

The main reason for this is because they are two sports with very different cultures. The NRL is made up of 50% Polynesian players as well as having a large Islander fan base who are all passionate Christians. Not only that, the NRL also has a big Muslim fanbase with clubs like the Bulldogs too. And...
