yeh but that's only the appetiser to the BIG rep season.
Cant wait for the All Victorian 4 n 20 Sausage Rollers to take centre stage & do our country proud when they play ..ummm ..
Who do they play.

[NRLCrap1]

Auckland is a joke.

Rugby league will never make it to the Olympics because not enough countries play it to an equal level. It's the same for AFL.

I wonder if Dave writes AFL craps lines lol it's as if the same person is commenting

Rep games may be the highlight in your code but our season is. 3 or so games v 200.

[NRLCrap1]

A code that has as it's highlights rep games is a code in big trouble.

Of course when you follow a code that has NO FUCKING REP games ,the jealousy will make you say utter crap(in your case moreso than usual)

Of course some of your rep games are good, but the SOO ruins your season so it balances out.

how bout a 3rd of your comps teams being nothing but state league level imposters
how bout that for ruining your season dickhead

oh &
we have a world class rep program to make up for any waning interest we may suffer from during our season
what does your bumbling code have to distract from its short comings ?

Just the most popular and biggest football on this country ..... That's all lol

[Raiderdave]

its astounding the green envy fumblers suffer from

our code is just near unstoppable at the moment
it is evolving
it is growing with fresh ideas & reworking of old ones so it can not only be successful in Australia but take a product to the international stage & introduce
itself to new markets

Our state of Origin is gaining global recognition
Our World Cup was an outstanding success.... & it will only get bigger
the NRL is thriving .... watch it erase the miniscule drop it had in crowds & TV ratings last year & set records in 2014... memberships will hit 260K this year.
Our CEO announced yesterday that our domestic comp .. the NRL.. popped a cool 50 million dollars of profit from season 2013 into the bank the week before =D> =D> =D> =D>

& now the 9's
a lazy 50,000 turned out in Auckland yesterday .... if the venue had been bigger it would have been 60,000
Brilliance ... some bumbling fun too , costumes galore with a carnival atmosphere amongst this very well behaved crowd ... 13 of the 16 sides still in contention going into the 2nd day today
& the commonwealth games saying hey ... we want this .. its awesome
The Olympics will be beaconing soon enough

I mean fuck me .... how bright is the future of this game


& now the fumbles & bumbles

its treading water
its doing ..................... ZIP .... NOTHING ..... NADA
its got nowhere to go
theres nothing to see here , but the same tired old format its had for decades
its popularity remains focused in one half of one country , with some small enclaves of support in the other half
& it has barely moved a millimetre in 100 years plus ..anywhere else outside of Australia
its clubs are failing financially with the VFL being drained of its cash reserves to keep nearly half of its clubs operating

no rep program
no international competition for its best players
its players humiliate themselves by being thrashed by Irish pig farmers every 2 years in a hybrid circus that is becoming less interesting each series

I mean .. fuck me
how bleak is the future of this game
