what crowds they expecting? A game between StKilda and GWS, two of our smallest clubs, drew more fans than a game between the two best RL nations in the world last night

I'm not sure what the issue is here. Rl is of course more international than Australian Rules Football. I mean that is fairly obvious. Is it a big player on the international scene ... No. but it definitely has some international presence and any presence at any real level is better than what Aussie rules has overseas.

This shouldn't even be a debate.
