According to the Australian Sports Commission Ausplay Report Soccer is the number one player participated sport in Australia with Golf 2nd and AFL 3rd, where as RL is a very distant 9th and RU not making it into the top 10. So much for RL being the most played sport in Austtralia.

My beloved rugby didn't even feature lol. It's not surprise considering how shit the ARU are running the game. On the bright side it's increased world wide

You're gonna have to move to Toulon or Leicester pal. No one here care's about sport overseas unless an Australian team is playing.

More touch football players in Aus alone than registered afl players.

Since when is the expression NATIONAL a reference to NSW, the report was a NATIONAL report what is it that you dont understand about that very simple concept? Nationally AFL is played in clubs the 3rd most, NATIONALLY RL is played in clubs the 9th most, where did it say only in Nsw?

If you check your link to the actual site of the Australian Sports Commission you will find you have once again reported incorrectly. Who woulda known???? The ASC actually lists Touch football as 8th with 272,000 players whilst you don't have it at all ya dill.
In any case this is not a report as you falsely state it is a survey of 20,000 adults and 4,000 kids and it seems very inaccurate. Does anyone seriously think golf really comes in 2nd???? And the numbers for touch are way too low.
You seriously need to research and fact check more carefully before you continually make a fool of yaself.

1st I listed the source from the Thenewdaily I didnt write the peice only listed as the reference, I have checked with the ASC and you are right touch is listed so perhaps you can take it up with the editor. RL moves from 9th to 8th if you combine touch and RL. BUT still well down the list.

That's a big statement to make gramma queen, so you know what every Australian sports fan prefers to watch? So no one cares about the NBA? Premier league?
