Alright I gotta admit in RL and RU I was an ok player. I could tackle pretty damn well, had some toe and ball skills. But I wasn't great. When I switched and played marngrook, within my first season I received accolades for my on field performances. Best on Grounds and numerous times in the top three players. I think overall the sport is just easier to be good at, which I s great. Simple sports are good sports too. Maybe this has something to do with the AFLs failure to promote anything other than its regular season comp...? We know the level of athletes are not on the same level as NRL players and then they don't have other nations to draw on so it is just too narrow and simple a field to be able to put on an amazeballs athletic spectacle like the SOO...?

Well good for you RD - then you have nothing to worry about and you can sit back and relax - I really don't care - I will still watch AF and so will others and you will just have to content yourself with half of Australia. Mate seriously if you truly believe what your saying your in for a very rude shock AFL will be in an even better shape in 10 yrs both here and OS!

It hasn't moved an inch in 150 yrs.
In fact it has contracted.
Was some interest in NZ & PNG ,then Ru & RL took over .
It has shrunk.
Not one pro or semi pro comp anywhere on earth outside this country.

Looks like you have drank the koolaid .
Brainwashed & now believing the lies spread by Cos & co..
dumbest fans on Earth.
Now drink some more koolaid...vlad says its good for you.

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
OMG. Do you chumps honestly still believe marngrook is a serious sport o/s?

"But look there's a website for AFL in nepal"
Fuck me drunk, seriously marngrook is miniature o/s. I've played it at the highest level in the Netherlands. Its nothing more than a common interest club of 90% expats. I'm telling gods honest truth fellas, I swear on my ancestors graves, its tiiiiiiiiinnny o/s. you simply cannot argue otherwise.

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
Deflect .
If AFL is growing & going to be so big then why the fuck cant you find at least 1 ,ONE ,just a single SEMI pro comp overseas...
You know why.
because despite what the zealots post in WFN or WIKI there is very little interest.
Expats & a few curious locals..
Hope they have fun ..
TIME TO post a pick Of some Vietnamese fumbleside ..its a laugh .Not a local on sight..
You have finally went full ****** & joined Cwapper & Cos in some alternate reality.

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
This is right. How can the AFL expand overseas realistically when all that's going on is social stuff amongst ex pats? This is why I want those dorect links from NRLCrap1 instead of being asked to get them myself from Wikipedia.

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
Didn't say it was big - said it exists where it didn't before that's all! About the same level at RL is in Vic, SA, WA and Tass a very minor sport but there non the less.King-Eliagh wrote:OMG. Do you chumps honestly still believe marngrook is a serious sport o/s?

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
Just the same reason you can't find just 1 semi pro league in Vic, SA, WA, Tas. Never said AFL was bigger than other sports only that from nothing it is played OS - why is this disputed?AFLcrap1 wrote:Deflect .

Re: the 2014 KNOB Cup Grand Final
On the contrary I'm seeking some responsibility from NRLCrap1. He is the one who made the claim and needs to back it up directly. Sending me to Wikipedia is no different than telling me to Google it, which is a nothing answer.King-Eliagh wrote:And? What else is it gunna do? Why do you want them?
