AFL sinks boot into rugby's heart

[Stewie]

ah .. so says the king of deluded fools

Vicky Kicky is dead in Sydney .... or have you not read the VFL's own report into the state of its game in NSW ?

it had no growth at all in club registrations in Sydney in 2012
while RL participation grew by 7% ..
it seems kids in Sydney have tried the fumbling & bumbling ..... & hate it , so are longer taking it up ... or continuing to play it if they did start.
ask Izzy .... he said as much
get me away from this garbage

if they're soft shirt lifters & their mummies won't let them play RL with the rough boys .... they'll play soccer like they have for the last 40 years
not giggleball
& soccers popularity player numbers wise ... has never affected RL being the dominate code in the Nthn states .... & it never will.
nup
after 30 years & despite RL having very little money to defend itself .... the VFL has made almost .. NO .. gains into RL's numb 1 status north of the murray , as VFL is a poor product & despite all the money they've thrown at kids in NSW ...it hasn't worked.. as I keep saying you can't polish a turd.

& now RL has a billion plus to spend on maintaining its Numb 1 position in the Nthn States ..... it will not only NEVER relinquish it
it will pull even further away.

Football participation grew in NSW actually. .

you mean the numb of kids forced to paticipate at schools in a 30 minute training session ( no actual game ) in NSW grew ................ the report said this had no effect on club playing numbers , and in fact was harming the game
I'd suggest you put your lil willy back in yr daks for a sec & actually read the report d head

More like kids choose to compete in intraschool football competitions. Harming the game

Keep dreaming the dream stewie, one day in a Billion years time it may come true, but until then, half the country loves Rugby League, while the other half loves Aussie Rules.

[piesman2011]

The estimate is that my 2019 there will be about 200 NSW/Qld AFL players with about 20% of the AFL numbers comming from these two states.

How many years until the nRL achieves that for Vic, SA and WA?

[piesman2011]

They NRL have at most half a dosen players born and raised in Vic, SA and WA. I hope they can increase this with a big push at grass roots. They have no excuse after their big TV pay day.

and of the NSW contingent ...about 3 of those will be born & raised Sydneysiders , the rest coming from the Riverina
where they always have

change in the landscape after 37 years of having VFL sides in Sydney .............just above.... NIL

They have had guys comes from all these places for years idiot, there is a whole team of u18's waiting for a crack just from WA just as they had a team full of locals years ago that won a GF in the lower grades when WA had an NRL team.

The same can be said of the storm right now, they have won titles in the lower grades with a majority of the players being tards just like you and your mates here.

Give them a chance to grow in the game ffs, or do you think these kids should be put in the side instead of Slater, Cronk, Smith and co?

Thick, vFL thick.

Oh, and as usual from the most insular code on Earth, RL manages to get players from all over, just not a few states from one big rock like the vickykicky game.

Answer the question properly dumbarse. How many years on estimate until 20% of nRL players come from Vic, SA and WA? What's the total amount of players from these areas anyway, 10?

But according to Parra, plenty of players have come from those areas in the past?

[ParraEelsNRL]

Yeah, I lied didn't I xwoman and the spewster?

No players have ever come from anywhere outside of NSW, QLD and that little place called the ACT, nup, none.

RL, a game girt by sea.

[MarkZZZ]

I bet there is posts up at some schools in the ACT. Pity no one outside knows for sure though as no body visits the place!

not one school .........


VFL .... shown the door in our nations capital

Yeahhh doubt it. Adelaide's population is 1.2 million and there isn't one with rugby posts! How embarrassing for the so called "national" Rugby League.

Stewie there is a thing called google learn to use it if you don't want to look absolutely stupid.

The Adelaide PremiershipThe top level competition in the SARL is sponsored as the Sportcentre Cup and is divided into two divisions. Division one features five clubs and division two features four clubs, with only Central Districts competing in both divisions.

Eels
River City Knights
[edit] Premiership HistoryThe 2005 Grand Final was contested between Eels and Central Districts at Hanson Reserve, Adelaide on 21 August 2005. The Eels won 22-18.
In 2006 the SARL celebrated its 30th anniversary with the Tigers Rugby League Club securing both the Reserve and First Grade premierships, as well as coming runners-up in the Under 18 competition, losing to the Aberfoyle Dragons Under 18 outfit.
In 2009 the Aberfoyle Dragons beat the Tigers Rugby League club in a dirty match, winning 34-6 with a man down due to a fight near half time. This was also the first time a team had won the premiership two times in a row.
In 2009 the competition saw the return of reserve grade in a modified version called "Senior 11's" this was great for all clubs who enjoyed 11 aside, 5 metre line and scorer defends at the restart. It brought many ex players back to clubs and has promoted many debutants an avenue to play the game. The Roosters adapted to the modified rules and pace of the game and went undefeated in the 2009 season to see the Cougars in the grand final under lights at Hindmarsh. Although it started out a grind, the Roosters took control leaving the Cougars behind 54-20 in a grand final thumping of great proportions. In the A-grade grandfinal the Eels beat South Adelaide in a close match with the final try being scored in the last forty seconds of the match.
During the 2010 season the Tier A High Schools competition is held with u15's & u18's playing in round robin mathces streching approx 12 weeks. Gawler High School took the U18's grand final against the champions for the last 7 years in Aberfoyle Park. Emerging talent from the Gawler region is proving to be a great feeder to the local club the Roosters. In the Senior 11's the Eels went undefeated all year to take out the premership and the A-grade Eels went on to be both Minor and overall Premiers.

[ParraEelsNRL]

Eels, don't you just love em?

[Stewie]

Mark so how many schools have rugby posts? That was the point I was making, I never denied that some rare schools participated in rl comps.
