I didnt say anything about skills, I stated that Rugby is a more brutal sport, and it is.


Cant argue with this. Whatever the debate about skill, its hard to argue against the sheer brutality of it.


Wook in your opinion, with the physicality of league and union of how physical demanding ...

I’ll ask this and see if you can answer or agree without confabulation.

Who wins Friday night ratings generally?

Who wins finals rating generally ?

Its either nrl or AFL. One answer.


This really is tedious and boring. Freddo...........I have stated this many many many many many many times ...

what a stupid thread...

Woman's r.l. to rival AFL ......absolutely ridiculous
Woman's r.l. to rival AFLW ......... still ridiculous.
Let he who is innocent of ridiculous posts be the only ones to criticise.


Um pal, I think Leeroy is pointing out that under the current circumstances it is ...

Not sure what you mean here?


Leeroy is alluding to the fact Eddie seems to think if the Suns come good they will win the hearts and minds of Qlder's. Which of course is idiotic stupidity. He thinks Ed might be brainwashed. I.E. living in the bubble where every fumble fan believes anything and ...

Nope this thread is the gift that keeps on giving .
Watching fumblers try to justify the 2 money pits is hilarious
Watching you rant with utter rot is even better

After many many years of mismanagement it looks like Rl has a shrewd operator in PVL .
We were laughed at for not being proactive .
Not being on the front foot .
Being left behind ..etc .
So what now
PVL is eexcatly the opposite.
He's proactive .
Putting RL first doing what's best for the game not ...

Should always be this way.

Lol PVL is making GIl look like a deer in the headlights ,
And some at Ch 9 media seem to be now printing actual stories .
Not propaganda

& as for the AFL has a far bigger problem with 5 states .
Bullshit
It's no worse than the NRL with
3 states
1 territory
1 overseas team .

Long before the ...

I am pretty sure it was a Loan
A $600,000.000 loan

From AFL website

NAB, ANZ comes to the Party as AFL secures huge loan


It was a $600M line of credit. Meaning they can draw on it up to that amount but may not use it all. Exactly the same as the NRL except they got $250M.

Bottom line is ...

First AFL was criticising the NRL for trying to restart their season so soon.
Now they are trying to do the same and upset that the NRL has a 2 week head start against AFL with their season.

Be interesting to know If PVL was not chairman

How all this drama would of unfolded..

NRL AND AFL prob don't start to mid July.

With both codes losing another 100 million at least.



Yep. I don't agree with everything PVL has done or the way he's done it but he deserves praise for this. He's ...

This will be interesting .
PVL has shown to be straight down the line .
Whatever he has said or claimed has turned out to be spot on .
He doesn't bullshit .
On the other side is the bullshit King & his sport that bends the truth so far it breaks .
Who have a long history of straight out lying ...

And that's why fox ratings are pretty meaningless as an indication of national popularity. There is very little incentive for AFL fans to take up foxtel in all states bar VIC because they see their team on FTA.

The AFL have a great deal for their fans but fox get a raw deal with the AFL really

Peter The Great has got the northern fumblers on the run says Swans boss Anthony Priddle. In a rare show of an AFL administrator telling the truth he said he has fears fumbling will go the way of Rugby in the face of the juggernaut PVL and the behemoth Rugby League.

Priddle said RU had dropped ...
