  1. The Penguin #6.

    PNG's back.

    We all owe the Wookie a great debt for his work but it doesn`t mean he`s above reproach. The quote I posted was a couple of days old and I seriously considered not posting it, despite thinking it was one of the most ridiculous things I`ve read all year, because I was apprehensive about the...
  2. The Penguin #6.

    PNG's back.

    Let alone the media and its` acolytes. This quote taken from the Hobart Mercury newspaper and repeated as if it could actually have some merit on the SportsIndustry site: "Alarming figures showing the Tasmanian economy starting to struggle has prompted a call for Labor to support a stadium to...

    Hey just read this post, you`ve said everything I just posted (above) but in about half the number words. LOL.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    I believe this dichotomy is really more just a reflection of the fanaticism of a certain element of the fumbleball fan base. The madder of the bastards are flocking to games live in line with crowd increases in a lot of other sports, The drop off in tv ratings numbers reveals though, if you`re...

    I watched Knights/Broncos at the R.S.L. in Coffs while visiting my son, what a game, the place was pumping, would have been perfect if the Knights could have just hung on. Didn`t see the first game as I was too scared to watch, we got a very pleasant surprise when we looked up the score though...

    I still watch the news and generally catch a few minutes of the 7.30 Report (before I turn over or off) to get the gist of how painfully socially conscious they`ve become.

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    I don`t watch the ABC any more they have completely lost the plot, however I did stumble across the Drum (had to just look that up to get the name) the other day and saw a bunch of North Shore types bleating about jelly fish invading their beaches. WTF "the people`s broadcaster". These people...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Maybe not if the money is paid up-front. HST I can`t imagine the journo would make a typo on such a significant point. $2m/annum on the other hand is ludicrously way too little.

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    The Warriors are going to have to be on their game with this one. Could get ugly.

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    Mate, none of us on here are that intelligent, you`re absolutely no different than anyone else on here. As the great author Solzhenitsyn said: " there`s enough smart people in the world, what there isn`t, is enough good people".

    If Canberra don`t get more than 20k, I`ll eat my hat.

    The Game 2023 Crowd Watch

    Facts of the matter are saying "Rugby League", "rugby union" and "australian rules " is a mouthful in general conversation, so this is why everyone just says "football". Except rugby union of course who now have a mortgage on rugby and therefore can use that. It comes down to the number of...

    2023 TV/Fox/Streaming Ratings

    There were some figures put up the other day: club game sans Warriors ~30k; inc. Warriors ~90k. Don`t know how old these figures are and may understate the current popularity of the Warriors in N.Z. at the moment.

    18th club, whose next?

    Given the state of the roads it would certainly be like driving on the moon.
  16. The Penguin #6.

    18th club, whose next?

    Not sure about that, it`s great winning battles overseas, but the battle is far from over at home. I like this and think it has merit. I`ve said this before ( my turn to be egotistical LOL) one contact sport, one non-contact, winter sports market sown up. Interesting thought.

    18th club, whose next?

    So you wanted him to fly back to Oz and then back for the derby, come on, that`s a childish cheap shot, you can do better than that.

    The first game was an absolute cracker despite the lop-sided scoreline. High quality Rugby League.

    Next TV deal discussion 2028 -

    Channel 10 starting the groundwork to be the holder of the next Australian Rugby League broadcast rights. "Fox Sports star Braith Anasta has rejected a lucrative offer to be the next bachelor on Channel 10’s hit reality TV show. The NRL 360 host was recently approached by the network to star in...

    18th club, whose next?

    And at the end of the day this is probably about all they will get until that country is a lot wealthier and more stable.
