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

Um yep ... if you want a beach and that’s all you want Melbourne isn’t for you. A lot of great cities don’t have a surf beach near by? Also... one of the most famous surf beaches ...Bells. ... just over an hour way... as all freeway now and by pass Geelong. And before that you have Torquay ... too ...

Re: Exactly why are we spending $2 billion on new stadiums in Sydney?

You Australian Fairy League fans never quit.
Who wants to put a bet on that both ANZ and the Sydney football stadium will both get upgrades?

ANZ upgrade will 100% happen. And so will the the Sydney football stadium rebuild.

Re: AFL and NRL: why the differences in return to play?

Peter V'landys is probably the best sports administrator in Australia at the moment. UFCs Dana White has even been crediting him for his negotiation skills. He made Sydney's Everest the most valuable horse race in the country. Leaves the Melbourne Cup for dead with prize money these days. Now he has...

Re: Channel Nine eyes AFL rights, heaps pressure on NRL

Interesting. I’ve noticed the ramping up of AFL content on Channel 9 of late too. Footy Classified weekly and the Sunday Footy Show every Sunday morning in Sydney/NSW and I assume Australia wide. Nine never wins the Friday night timeslot against Channel 7’s AFL since loosing the AFL. Makes good bus...

I would have thought it was in doubt .
GOVTs everywhere will be cutting $$$ on everything they can .
People were saying that could happen. But then I heard them say it would help boost the economy pressing ahead, since so many people are out of work.

So ANZ upgrade seems still 100% confirmed..

Re: Toronto Wolfpack

Wolfpack appeal to a small insignificant niche market of buffoon English expats who refuse to embrace the local sports such as ice hockey and gridiron. Rugby league does not even register with the average sane Canadian citizen.and why would it when there are more exciting sports to follow. Much gre...

Re: New Parramatta stadium will offer a world class experience.

And more endless but but excuses in who the crowds will remain so pathetic :wave: Record crowds happened in Parramatta. I am sure the same will happen when Sydney stadium is built :cool: That’s a good point. Are the poor crowds for rl on Sydney due to poor stadiums? I am certain ANZs crowds would g...

Afl can afford it though ... well could.
AFL has been in too. Plenty of pay cuts and layoffs in all codes.
No sport in immune.

Re: Rugby Australia seems to be in a lot of trouble financially.

As I predicted World Rugby are set to bail out RA to the tune of up to $200M over 4 years. That should be enough to see 'em through. Hopefully they'll go to a trans Tasman comp and dump the saffies. The next broadcast deal is still a problem though. They must have very deep pockets World Rugby. I b...

Staggering growth in people leaving the stadium mid game and visiting the back tent more like it.

Re: AngloFL failed global expansion.. next destination

Can some of the nrl looney community please provide examples of the afl trying to expand over seas🤣 They have tested the waters in NZ with exhibition matches. But crowds fell so quickly that they cancelled future matches early. This pretty much killed any dreams of an AFL team in New Zealand. :lol:...
