The root of all that's wrong with our game

[T-Boon]

Interest in Rugby Union is extremely low as well. Kids/families just need more entertainment than is being dished up by these British football codes. We need to Americanise the rules. Jeremy Clarkson said the same thing about motor racing. Americans get entertainment - British not so much (look at EPL...boring).
Firstly, do something about the f**king scrum. It screams "we have no idea and have given up".

Everyones on here flipping out about crowds. They are coming up with every reason in the world and ignoring the obvious. The game stinks on the field at the moment. Needs radical changes.

Why don't you make a takeover bid for the NRL Mr. Pickens... then you can sort it out good and proper.

NRL administration have a lot to answer for. Problem is no one is asking the questions or the ones who's opinions can change the admin, the clubs, are happy with more cash so they shut up

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Glass half empty mother f**kers.

 

[POPEYE]

Who'd turn up to a stadium to watch reality shit like cooking or weight loss. RL is reality tv now, it's administered, adjudicated upon and sponsored that way . . . seats in stadiums just need to be painted with shirts and pants

. . . is the footy better or worse

More like stadium half empty

The root of all problems with the NRL:

John Grant.

Todd Greenberg.

Tony Archer.

Simple.

I've never genuinely feared for the NRLs long term future like I do now under the watch of these small minded simpletons.

Junior participation. Country rugby league. Crowd numbers. Reffing standards. Stadium strategy.

The game is under threat whilst these clowns are at the helm.

Yes, it's that serious imo.

 

[BunniesMan]

There should be a 1 month transfer window after the grand final and that's it.

 

[Smack]

The biggest issue is mid seasons contracts, this shit needs to stop and players need to focus on the current season with their current team. Do all the contract stuff in the off season.

Rlpa reckons it takes 6 months plus to organise a house a car and your girl friend a radio job

 

[Diesel]

Broncos getting FTA games every 7 days, free exposure, huge TPA's an able to sign players on unders, no competition from other RL clubs within a city over over 2m people

 

[simmo05]

Suburban grounds avg around 12k crowds and have poor corporate facilities. Good luck keeping up with the broncos, storms etc of the nrl playing in such grounds lol.

Storms going alright while they are winning. See what happens when the 3 retire

Yeah the EPL is a joke, I mean all that TV money and worldwide demand for their product. they should ask the NFL how to run a sport.
As for boring it depends what measure you use, do Barca and Real play better football? Probably but the EPL has 20 teams that are able to win against each other even if the number who can win the title is limited. Its not very often in Spain you see the lower teams beating the bigger ones.
f**ks sake this isn't even in the cave.

Just look at Liverpool.

Beat the top teams, lose to the bottom teams.

Frustrating as f**k, especially when we only have bottom teams left to play against to try and secure a champions league spot.
