would Ch7 dumb an AFL game in Primetime for and NFL game know it goes to there secondary channel
Jealousy truly is a curse makingdumbnormal. Remember when there was a rare outbreak of truth telling in the fumbling game: The AFL's US superstar Mason Cox said,"I was here in Vegas.............I saw what the NRL was doing and I was a bit jealous...... It's going to be pretty iconic scenes seeing the NRL come over here and playing......I think people will love it.......Rugby (League) has really kind of taken off over here.....!!!!!!makingnrlfansgowacko wrote: Thu Feb 12, 2026 10:04 pmsure about the sponsorsleeroy*NRL* wrote: Thu Feb 12, 2026 8:21 pmin Australia (sponsors)makingnrlfansgowacko wrote: Thu Feb 12, 2026 6:48 pm

the game isnt even going to free to air secondary or third or forth channel. its on to cable tv

Well said Mase, anything else........yep........"Every time you ask an American if they know what AFL is they say, yeah, that's Rugby (League) right?" And of course he said these immortal words, "Round 1 NRL goes to Las Vegas. AFL premiers go to a showground for livestock" lolololololol!!!! Yep, that's where they have to clean the cow shit from the game before it starts lolololo.
So there ya have it sports fans. The truth from superstar Mason Cox. And the jealous drivelling rants from a bloke that calls himself makingdumbnormal. I REST MY CASE.

We don’t care wha you think as we know with such limited you NRL fans have and the struggles to have to follow any game much complex than the relative and predictable game if league.
It’s the decisions of the tv networks of what they think of League where they show it!
First free to air channel! No
Second? No
third? No
Straight to cable as only the odd expat will bother watching such a boring event
