So you're admitting a small code played in half a small coutry is bigger than the entire code of RL?

We don't care about England, and TBH i'm not sure why you do, RL attendance rates in England per capita are around half of Australia's and, ENGLAND is the home of the code, if they don't give a **** about it why do you?
f me, has Princess dumbo lying warrior got all his mate on this website now. #-o

What a pitiful post that makes absolutely no sense.
Rugby League has a lying culture. Altering crowd figures, relying on inaccurate TV figures from regional NSW and refusing to distance itself from Leagues Clubs and obtain it's own club memberships as it relies on LC's to survive as private entities.

What, you are suggesting it makes to much sense that people in England have no idea what AFL is, it can't seriously be played there, and it is only played south of NSW border.

Now you're lying. There are 150 senior AFL clubs in New South Wales alone. And I suppose there has never been an AFL game played at The Oval?
In 1972, the first exhibition match of the AFL was played at The Oval in London. By 1987, the game had become an annual event, missing only some years. With a large number of ex-patriate Australians, interest in the game grew and small crowds of up to 10,000 were in attendance for the event in some years. Interest and crowds grew further with the change of the VFL to the Australian Football League. Highlights during this time included large crowds for the Australian Football League's West Coast Eagles v. Collingwood in 1997 with an attendance of 14,000 and the match between Richmond and Essendon in 2002 which drew 13,000.

You never posted any website in this thread. So who is the stupid one now?

You are the one being inconsistent. There is a difference between the game being played (which was never a point of contention with RL in Adelaide) and the identity of the venues being used. Trying to confuse the issue is the hallmark of a desperate person trying to escape the chasm of an epic fail in the argument.

Go back to the thread dumbo, you and your mates were the one twisting it. What is a field, I would suggest a venue where the game is played on correct? :wink:

You suggested there was no ground/field in Adelaide as RL was not the primary owner of the land/fields/dressing sheds. That is what was desperate my delusional friend. :wink:

I am sure when you all (you included) suggested there is no RL club/field in SA, then you were definiately trying to suggest the point of RL fields in Adelaide, so now you are suggesting if the game is played, than there is a club, so there must be a field/venue for the sport to be played, make up your mind. Again, you have been caught out contridicting yourself. :lol:

Incorrect. It is a venue that primarily or solely hosts one event/sport/etc.

Soccer is played in the winter. AFL is played in the summer in London. So there is no share arrangement. There is no cricket club at the venue. There is at the other venue I spoke of as a cricket ground.

RL is played in winter, but you want Grim Dribbler to posts photos in summer on the other thread, therefore flooring your argument on yet another thread. I was going to bed, but you are too piss funny. :lol:
