Cox is a fucking moron. We did exhibition games in the US in the 80s and 90s. We arent in a rush to go back.

Pies just bitter they have to travel interstate for game 1 of their season.
Thank you bummsniffer for your 'opinion'. For 'opinion' is what it is. The reason 'you' aren't going back to America is not because 'you' don't want to. It's because no one in the US of A wants the rabble back ya dill lolololololololol!!!!!!!!

Have a great day bummy and keep morale high pal.

The fumbling code may well be watching but it won't do 'em any good. Their game is a stumbling, fumbling, bumbling rabble.

No sport in the world is as skill-less or easy to play as the Australian Fumbling League. They've already tried NZ and China and been laughably frog marched outta both joints.

The yanks would do the same if Gilty and the boys were so stupid as to try it on over there. They're better off dominating the feeble minded folk theof Melbon and the little desert states. They own those joints ..................... and they can have 'em!!!!
That is so funny because it's true. I think the Americans would see AFL as some kind of comedy or sporting piss take.
Imagine trying to tell them you play football on a cricket field with 6 goals. 😂😂

And the stupid songs played at the end of the game.
I wonder why the AFL didn’t think of playing games in North America before the NRL…..oh that’s right they did as the VFL decades ago…
It wasn't very professional the AFL's efforts in the U.S.

Sending an NRL player to a US Ruby Union club, by mistake, to promote Rugby League games does not smell of professionalism…it just smells.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.

At the end of day Rugby League is getting known in the world's largest contact sport market. And the NRL is way more similar to American sports than AFL. It will always be a sport that Americans can relate to more than Aussie Rules.

If the US already has a game like it…why would the want another?
And US football started out as rugby and the US government demanded changes as they deemed the game too dangerous….thats why gridiron is now different to rugby….even after this period of time I doubt wether they would see it differently.
And the local rugby league competitions are going down the gurgler again.
I think they will do ok initially, wont last.

Rugby 7s has been popular in Las Vegas for years, the U.S has performed well many times in the sport too. And the NRL is very similar to Rugby 7s.
So what makes you think Americans won't turn up to the NRL too. I know for a fact it has gained more interest in the U.S (already) than AFL did in China & NZ and has also gained more interest than AFL ever possibly could in America too.

Rugby 7s Las Vegas

Where are your facts?
And I did say initially they would do ok, but it will not last.
Isn’t the 7’s union.?
For a 2 day event it does ok, but having a US team competing does help.
And union has been far more organised in the states than league although it could hardly be called a success.

I said it's Rugby Union 7s, which is very similar to Rugby League compared to normal Rugby Union.

But it makes a complete hole in your argument that "Americans have their own game and why would they like other countries sports". Well they have been turning up to Rugby 7s for years in Las Vegas. So yes they do like other sports.

They just would not like AFL. AFL fails massively at any other country it is introduced to.
China & NZ both showed no interest in AFL and America would be the same.

Trying to deflect as usual lol.. The simple fact is Rugby7's is very similar to Rugby League And it has been successful in the U.S..
You said "Americans only like their own sports". So that just proves another one of your fake news theories wrong. :^o

Rugby League has proven time and time again it is a more appealing sport than AFL at an international level. It is not even a competition there. :(/
