Talking Footy

Touch is still not rl. It’s a sport in its own right governed by their own body and rules. It grew out of rl yes... just as league grew out of Union. All three have codified rules that define the game. You seem to want it both ways.... you want to say rugby League is not union which is correct but not accept the same for Touch.

The federation of international Touch clearly outlines the growth and it’s rules. I think taking out kicking of the ball and taking football out of the name were important milestones for the game in developing its own identity.

Oh dear .
Touch was invented by South Sydney .
It's the non tackle version of RL

yet you argue league didn't come from union

Who the fuck says League didnt come from Union idiot?

I know no one who has ever said that, do you just pop pills and post the first thing that pops into your drug fucked head?

More lies
Here we go again .
The strawman argument
Please show where anyone ever said that .

So here we have this sites two obsessive and compulsive liars back to back ruining another thread. For a start the threads title is "Re:AFL in China -2019".

But the two liars are peddling over and over again 1) The idiot - 'people argue that League didn't come from Union.'
2) Fred the dill - Has been on a days long semi literate rant that RL is not touch. Quote:"Not everyone accepts RL and touch are different."

Ok...……firstly these lies have nothing to do with the thread. In any case the idiot is just an inveterate liar and can be dismissed out of hand. No evidence is needed. He self convicts himself daily.

Fred is a try hard low information poster. No person anywhere at any time believes or has said RL and touch are one and the same game. Ever!! It is an idiotic infantile claim. Yet against all evidence he regurgitates this idiocy for days. Why? I suspect base stupidity and a rabid deep-rooted hatred of RL and RL posters.

The idiot is a lost cause. Fred - move on pal...……..you're making a fool of yaself…………...again!!!!!

I see the China game may be played in Cairns ?

I think it will be a blessing if the game in China is cancelled .
Havnt those poor Chinese people suffered enough without inflicting this rot on them again ?

even the Chinese in all their dear leader brainwashing can see thru this LOL.

If this game is scrapped will anybody notice?

The AFL says it will be ready if coronavirus forces it to play games in front of empty stadiums, or cancel them entirely.

Sporting competitions all over the world have been disrupted by the disease with governments forcing mass gatherings not to take place.

Serie A and European soccer matches in Italy have been played in empty arenas because of this, while Japan placed a mass ban on major events including sport, concerts and even professional wrestling bouts.

in other news the NRL is breathing a sigh of relief as playing empty stadiums is a norm for them

Funny - but true - what was the NRL average? More at a Westfield shopping centre in Sydney most NRL games lol. At least they have Broncos to build their average and Parra are doing a little better since the new stadium. Wonder if they'll get 6000 crowds again lol.

I saw someone suggest they have the game in a bushfire affected area - great idea I think. something the NRL got right I thought.

the NRLS crowd in Sydney is pathetic and your right bumped up by the newscorp broncos
the polished turd in the new parramatta stadium will have lossed some its shine as well

me thinks its gonna be another season of but buts but but bush fires, but but corona virus, thrown in with the usual fudgey numbers

yet the eels have already broken their membership records LOL.

20k average at the new stadium, that will go up this year with a winning side. plus the eels are one of the highest rating teams in the NRL on tv and the last time they were any good, they absolutely demolished the highest rating afail team in collingwood in yearly ratings even though they had far fewer FTA games LOL.

Hahahahahahahahaha

The AFL really couldnt give a damn about international AFL. Ask any one overseas that tries to get funding - theres fuck all to be had. AFL exhibtion matches are primarily about sponsor dollars - even if the league touts other benefits - while international combines are about bringing talent here, not growing talent there.

The AFL isnt really trying to sell the game to the Chinese. Its about bringing Chinese sponsors and money back to the AFL. The AFL spends fuck all trying to promote the game internationally - this particular jaunt is primarily funded by sponsors and the Port Adelaide football club.

It must be a major kick in the head then for the AFL. All this time , effort, money - not to mention lies, that they put into it. And theyv'e got f-all out of it . And now we hear that the NRL have just signed a major sponsorship deal with a Chinese company
