Thank you bummsniffer for your 'opinion'. For 'opinion' is what it is. The reason 'you' aren't going back to America is not because 'you' don't want to. It's because no one in the US of A wants the rabble back ya dill lolololololololol!!!!!!!!WookieReturns wrote: Fri Nov 17, 2023 2:34 amCox is a fucking moron. We did exhibition games in the US in the 80s and 90s. We arent in a rush to go back.

Their game is a stumbling, fumbling, bumbling rabble.
No sport in the world is as skill-less or easy to play as the Australian Fumbling League. They've already tried NZ and China and been laughably frog marched outta both joints.
The yanks would do the same if Gilty and the boys were so stupid as to try it on over there. They're better off dominating the feeble minded folk theof Melbon and the little desert states. They own those joints ..................... and they can have 'em!!!!
Imagine trying to tell them you play football on a cricket field with 6 goals.
And the stupid songs played at the end of the game.

At the end of day Rugby League is getting known in the world's largest contact sport market. And the NRL is way more similar to American sports than AFL. It will always be a sport that Americans can relate to more than Aussie Rules.Quolls2019 wrote: Sun Dec 24, 2023 2:01 pmSending an NRL player to a US Ruby Union club, by mistake, to promote Rugby League games does not smell of professionalismā¦it just smells.GlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Thu Dec 21, 2023 9:29 pmIt wasn't very professional the AFL's efforts in the U.S.Quolls2019 wrote: Sat Sep 16, 2023 11:05 pm

And US football started out as rugby and the US government demanded changes as they deemed the game too dangerousā¦.thats why gridiron is now different to rugbyā¦.even after this period of time I doubt wether they would see it differently.
And the local rugby league competitions are going down the gurgler again.
I think they will do ok initially, wont last.
Where are your facts?GlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Thu Dec 28, 2023 5:08 pmRugby 7s has been popular in Las Vegas for years, the U.S has performed well many times in the sport too.

So what makes you think Americans won't turn up to the NRL too. I know for a fact it has gained more interest in the U.S (already) than AFL did in China & NZ and has also gained more interest than AFL ever possibly could in America too.
Rugby 7s Las Vegas
Wouldnāt be hard lolGlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Wed Dec 13, 2023 12:14 pmI know one thing. NRL Las Vegas is already looking a lot more professional than AFL Shanghai.
I said it's Rugby Union 7s, which is very similar to Rugby League compared to normal Rugby Union.Quolls2019 wrote: Sat Dec 30, 2023 10:16 pmWhere are your facts?GlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Thu Dec 28, 2023 5:08 pmRugby 7s has been popular in Las Vegas for years, the U.S has performed well many times in the sport too.

Isnāt the 7ās union.?
For a 2 day event it does ok, but having a US team competing does help.
And union has been far more organised in the states than league although it could hardly be called a success.
You never mentioned āunionā when you posted rugby 7ās and your ā ā of me is not what I actually saidā¦you make things upā¦.GlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Mon Jan 01, 2024 8:09 amI said it's Rugby Union 7s, which is very similar to Rugby League compared to normal Rugby Union.Quolls2019 wrote: Sat Dec 30, 2023 10:16 pmWhere are your facts?GlobalRugbyLeague wrote: Thu Dec 28, 2023 5:08 pm

But it makes a complete hole in your argument that "Americans have their own game and why would they like other countries sports". Well they have been turning up to Rugby 7s for years in Las Vegas. So yes they do like other sports.
They just would not like AFL. AFL fails massively at any other country it is introduced to.
China & NZ both showed no interest in AFL and America would be the same.
