Canada Wolverines VS USA Tomahawks gets a crowd of 7,000 in Canada!! While AFL can't even get a crowd there lol

[AFLsforPussies]

Not a bad effort considering Rugby League is a very small sport there. It is very amateur still, but good colonial cup crowds between these nations shows promise for the sport.

According to AFL fans one of there biggest leagues outside Australia is in North America. Yet there is still no evidence of any crowds watching their games.

=D> :_<>

Lol, 7000 people show up to watch the world's most boring code in a land where it will never succeed because they're too busy watching real sports. Don't get your hopes up RL grogans.

Lol, 7000 people show up to watch the world's most boring code in a land

Ahhh
They watched RL
Not sooker you stupid raider

[Vlad Tepes]

Dude millions more Americans and Canadians prefer soccer to RL. 7000 must be some kind of record for you meatheads over there. You are ********.

[sydneyfc]

cool story bro

come back when you have 2 professional leagues and over 30 professional clubs, including nearly $600m turnover for MLS and an estimated average value of each club being $103m each nooblords!

not a backwater sport where a measly 7.000 turned up where entry cost barely $2 per person

[AFLsforPussies]

Of course soccer is a much bigger sport the Rugby League there. And if you clowns read the post properly I said it is a good turn out for a sport with a SMALL following in North America
Being from the UK originally I follow Football too.
Rugby Leagues following is still a shitload more than AFL has there though. AFLs presence is close to zero in North America :<>

Dude the vast majority of americans & canadians could not give a flying rats arse about sooker

Like Australians believe men shouldnt play a game that is essentially for women

It is beneath them
A sooks sport.

They are all AFL fans in disguise Raider. Notice non of them attack AFL, only rugby league they have a go at lol. That is no coincidence :_<>

Desperate AFL fans pretending to like soccer are Vlad Tepes and Sydney FC =D>

Haha nice one. Can't speak for the other soccer fans here but the reason I don't attack AFL is because I can respect it as a free flowing sport which actually requires skill, so while I don't actively follow it I've still watched enough to realise it's miles ahead of RL. Pretty much all the other sports in this country require skill and thought, RL requires very little.

Haha Vlad I was right. Your an AFL man lol

I actually agree with you that soccer is skillful. But AFL requires less talent than crawling while drunk.

How the fark is AFL skillful lol

*You get a point for missing.
*You can drop the ball constantly and not get penalised.
*There is no cross bar on the goals either to make it easier to score again.
*Players trip over each other and fall over constantly.
*Players take most shots at goal with no pressure of being tackled or distracted.

All these points are why AFL is the least skilled game in the world and can't make it anywhere outside Australia.
Makes no sense you liking a skilled game like Football and a no talent game like AFL too lol

[AFLsforPussies]

I bet Sydneyfc loves AFL too lol
Probably a swans supporter :_<>

[pHyR3]

AFL is an embarassment to sport.

7,000 seems alright, but that tournament has been pulling that reasonably often

Should be aiming for 10k within a year or two.

also the first time Canada has won the colonial cup. Started in 2010

[sydneyfc]

whos the highest paid RL player based in the US, and does he earn more than minimum wage....

the highest earning soccer player in the US is on $6.5m a yr

soccer, the most popular participation sport in the US
$600m in revenue

RL, $25 in revenue, free sausage sizzle, maybe a couple hundred players in the entire country out of 300m people
