Talking Footy

27 nations represented in 1 season of NRL vs 51 nations represented in the AFL "over the years"/most likely approx 100 years. Actually can you confirm what "over the years" means TLPG?

Which comp is more multicultural again TLPG? State it nice and clearly now.

TFC is so pathethic these days.
How can you have a debate when someone doesn't know meaning of of the word "ethnic" .
You actually proved that NRL should be renamed the PIL.

AFL.

Provide evidence over the years that the NRL outstrips the AFL. See if you can get above 30 in the NRL.

We got 27 in ONE year

And can you please repost your crumby link highlighting 51 nations for the AFL. I dont believe it, even if it is "over the years" lol

27 in one year. So what? How far beyond that can you go? Very far? Doubt it.

repost your crumby link tlpg

As the families of all non-indigenous Australians are originally from elsewhere, this list goes back a maximum of one generation.

Well that's clear as mud. Nice link TLPG But i guess it means that the list goes back one generation, so we're talking 20-30 years, however the criteria goes back another generations stating that

players must either be born o/s or have atleast one parent born o/s and that the player must have played at least 1 AFL match

So effectively, when we think about it, we're going back two generations here...40-60years And including a massive number of players...and in a country which has been built on immigration, all this bum who wrote this pathetic wiki entry could find was 51 countries?



Thanks TLPG.

RL has 27 in one year

Sure if we went back another 30 the scale would slide but....you do the math TLPG

No, you do the research - and prove that more that 51 (actually it's now 53 according to link I gave) countries are represented in the NRL. Same criteria as you just reviewed.

gee

whilst we are now a multicultural society

Vanillaball just can't break out of its whiteness
can it
a sad bland .. one dimensional sport ......

Which is running rings around your pathetic "game", Raider - in crowds and in the ratings in the metro areas.

Football is the most multicultural game in the country in my opinion. It is certainly more multicultural than thugby! As well as entertaining!

Raider obviously enjoys watching paint dry.......

I really dont care for the exact number. Fact is, it's numbers solely for the 2012 season. Your ambiguous "over the years" claim is looking very shaky indeed now Actually its been blown out of the water.

Yes thy name is desperation......

I will do the same list next year to see if the AFL fraternity has improved its game in this area. somehow i think i will be disappointed......
