not like you, couple of states in the entire world. no one outside of those states in the WORLD gives a shit about your shithouse sport mate. deal with it.

i'm fine with RL only dominating a couple of states and having less presence than AFL in others so don't retort with that and then say 'deal with it'

Mate your the blokes telling us were wrong for liking AFL, I couldn't care less what you follow, but when we point out your code is miles behind you bring up RLWC, like man for fuck sake - I haven't taken notice of one score, I couldn't really care less - but when you keep bragging about it and the obvious is pointed out to you (that the comp is a made up sham due to the extremely loose selection criteria) you blokes flip telling us how popular it is over in England - well I have just one question for you and if you are brave enough and honest enough you will prove my point -
HAS THE RLWC HAD BIGGER CROWDS AND TV RATINGS COMPARED WITH THE EPA?
If it hasn't then there's your answer - England has 50 mil population so far from what you tell us they have had 17k crowd average (I may be wrong about that!) so if they haven't had bigger crowds and TV ratings that doesn't really send a strong message of support in England!

PS when FIFA was selecting the country for the WC they DEMAND every other sport shuts down over that period - has Soccer or RU shut down during the RLWC?

I assume you mean EPL, and no. Why does it have to beat the EPL for it to be considered a success? to net in 400k is better than anything the AFL could ever hope to achieve in another country.

I'm saying there's stronger support in other countries for RL than any other country for AFL. cause it's a shithouse sport, only thing it's got is endurance.

It's all comparative - it's being played in England not Australia - now like I said 50 mil in England with lots of ex-pats and the game was invented there - less than sell outs at the small grounds would be embarrassing! But the point is most English most prob don't care about it - like TV ratings 1 mil plus impressive here but in England where there is double the population not very impressive - to quote RD maybe the Brady Bunch out rates it! Your comparing RL over in England with what AFL does here! Anyway like I said don't really care but you blokes want the argument to continue.

RD worlds smallest brain!

And the biggest mouth! So big it can't fit on one account!

Fyiar, AFL has endurance, speed, skill and excitement. Get used to it if you can!

the point is that international NRL >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> me taking a dump >>>>>> international AFL

and you can see that through higher TV ratings in NZ and UK and crowds in other countries that the AFL could only dream about having out of australia.

i'm NOT saying that RL in UK is the biggest sport, it's clearly not.

And you also say that it was invented in the UK so it should somehow be the biggest sport there? well so was union, and many origins of soccer go back to england too. as do cricket and i'm sure numerous other sports.

Ignorant goose. International AFL is big and don't you forget it!

Call your carer.
The delusions are out of control again.

You fumbletards would kill your own mother to have one shred of international credibility.
Sadly you don't have it & not likely too.

HAHAHAHA oh god, this is why i come here. to hear pearlers like this.

prove it, any crowd figures to back that up? or tv ratings, anything really. except BOGUS participation figures. if participation was truly that high, then crowds would be decent too. but their shit. as per usual.

Oh that'd be right, Fyiar. Shut off the only proof there is because you know it murders your case!! Crowds are down because people are PLAYING!! Live with it!
