Look you have to let it go Azif. AFL absolutely dominated the Rugby League on TV last year by a lot & of course they were thrashed in crowd attendances also. Just admit Rugby League is a second class sport in every country it is played in except for PNG.

Rugby League in Australia in 2024
185 million on TV
5 million crowds
190 million in total

Skinnywhitedorkball in Australia in 2024

HAHA I don't know where you get these stats that are not facts from. But if you want to believe it then I guess you like believing in fake news to make the second rate sport called Rugby League sound better than it actually is.

RU is way bigger in the UK
AFL is way bigger in Australia
Combination of GF crowds proves nothing.

Globally Rugby League is bigger than AFL. You have zero presence in the UK. While Rugby League has a 12 team professional league. You have no teams in France. Rugby League has a professional team there too.
You are virtually non existent in NZ. While the NRL gets healthy crowds for the Warriors and Pacific tests there.
Rugby League has Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, PNG test teams too. While the AFL is non existent in the Pacific Islands.

Meanwhile AFL is only more popular than NRL in half of one country lol.. With no hope of growing outside of Australia in any form.. The popularity of AFL is pretty delusional when you look at the grand scale of things.
