There really has a huge market in NZ with a bigger population than South Australia, Tasmania and Northern Territory with no interest in AFL.
But it does have an International Rugby League team.
Reserve Grade Rugby League teams as well as an NRL team in the Auckland Warriors.

yet the AFL has 4 teams in WA and SA, and also a professional league in each, the WAFL and SAFL. Add to that the AFL is clearly the number one sport in both satates
How many NRL teams in NZ? How does RL compare in popularity to RU in NZ?
Fail

well I didnt say there was your fucktard, but they again have their own league and supply many players to the AFL and will have around 8 AFL games played there this year.
So again, far more than the NRL in WA SA or Tas
But thanks for starting this thread, showing the AFL is way way more popular in WA SA and Tas than the NRL in NZ

No I just educated you that being popular in the 3 least populated states of a small country hardly counts for much does it.
And still no following for AFL in New Zealand and the United Kingdom lol..
2 states (SA & NT) with less people combined than New Zealand lol... wow well done AFL
3 claps to AFL for counting for nothing lol =D> =D> =D>

Why would the NRL even try with SA for now, it has less Add revenue then Perth and is a much smaller market then Brisbane and NZ.
Adding a team in Perth, Brisbane and NZ adds more to a tv deal then a SA team ever could. A SA team would also drain the coffers of the NRL far quicker then those last 3 options.

Actually AFL has been around longer than Rugby League and it still is only popular in the arse end of Australia. AFL can't even get another country to play their sport after a 100 plus years.
Rugby League first grade teams in France, England, New Zealand and Australia.
Then we have a 4 nations which AFL can't do because only one nation plays their game lol...
For New Zealand to win Four Nations and to have Fiji compeditive just shows the depth of talent comming out of Pacific Island nations and the growing popularity of Rugby League in these regions compared to AFL.
Then you look at the UK which has produced some of the best forwards in the game.
AFL have a very difficult sell to get New Zealand to show interest in an Australian only sport that is as alien to them as Grid Iron is to most Australians.

Clearly NZ has some interest in AFL - AFL games, AFL on TV, local leagues and clubs plus a very large Auskick program
so lets see the proof behind this ridiculous thread claim.
