Suburban Rugbys Shute Shield is even said to outrate a lot of AFL games on Ch7.

Apparently the new Sports bet app is a "piece of piss" to use according to "former Rugby league star Todd Carney" as the ad states.

Rugby league. Leading the way again.....

And yes, that is a sculpture of a boy pissing in his own mouth.

I think they lost money on investments like the club at Springwood I think it is? Certainly churning enough through the gates so no issue there.

Well Chuckles you make some valid points about overseas sports

THE FACTS ARE

True, don’t think most fans care or even think about it.

NO PROFESSIONAL CLUBS OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA.

Australian Rules in name and nature, but only in Australia......

I think the point is, is that you ...

I don’t think anyone thinks Australian Rules Football is big overseas. I think there has been a push by the AFL to try and expand the game but more re: create an interest but that’s just good business ... to explore new markets and take risks... some work some don’t. But I think the biggest failure ...

Not too sure of the purpose of having one photo of a crowd in NRL heartland compared to an AFL crowd in China, perhaps an NFL photo of a game in China may be more relevant.

I thought crowd estimate was generous but I have said the same on this forum, for games of both codes, and RU for this year ...

Phil Gould is a bright man,
