Like I said it’s only nrl jpurnos writing it, you’d think they’d be talking the nrl up in qlnd, or at best ignoring afl, rather than creating click bait that once again make nrl look inferior. Your right though you’d never see it happen in an afl state lol. Could you imagine a melbourne paper or afl show talking about nrls plan to take over Victoria because they’re playing Origin there? Ludicrous.
As for the rest, well yes the WA premier announced SOO in front of Optus stadium and talked about supporting RL in WA (Shame Vlad fcked that up!) so hardly a unique situation in Brisbane.
Well Vlad is talking rugby league up in Qld, and you think he's a nuthink. Ironic huh!
As if AFL journos would be writing it LOL, they tend to obey their AFL overlords not to rock the boat. You don't tell your competitor your plans about domination of them.
Peter Badel responded to Underwood and Wilson on the Offsiders a couple of weeks back, and I heard him plain as day" No I don't think the AFL will take over the NRL in Qld, remembering years ago the Lions won a couple on the trot and the world got back to normal there."
And Badel was one of the journos who has since mentioned the data base access.Why do that, if one minute he's OK with it?
The Media in Melbourne barely gives the NRL or indeed the Storm the time of day ,compared to the space the Brisbane media gives to AFL.So with due respect your Melbourne paper ofrAFL show example ,is p*sss poor.
Although if they found the NRL was trying to access data bases of their club memberships, the media would be even more protective of their "religion".Eddie Everywhere would be out of his tree.
Saw enough and heard enough of their crap when the Storm first came to town.
Yeah it's a crying shame COVID-19 intervened how f...in inconvenient, when NRL clubs, players, admin and staff are having to take pay cuts, and play in 1/4 full stadiums. But, but, it's all about WA, no one else exists in your mind.
We have a game that barely survived the pandemic, and needs to consolidate and all you continually bang on about is WA and the wicked Vlad.I personally don't give a low flying f*rt, who is in charge of the NRL, we survived with out hitting a Loan ,thanks to a number of people from Vlad, his admin down to the players and families.
If we hadn't not only would a swag of NRL teams be out on the a*ses, but the chance of a WA team getting in would be as likely as me scoring a one on one with Liz Hurley.
Shame your mob helped f*ck up the game in 95 with SL acceptance.And we still never fully recovered.Maybe money would be there to assist WA ,we'll never know.
