    NRL faces major turmoil as clubs threaten breakaway league

    The clubs will still cry poor, as they will inevitably just increase football spending beyond their means again. Hard to see where the money is going to come from for all of these second tier sides they want to put on the map around Australasia. they could have added a 9th game to the Nrl with...

    World 9's circuit

    Hawaii seems like a prime location outside of heartlands to establish an ongoing nines event. excellent climate and a pacific islander population to market to that maybe already aware of rugby league plus aloha stadium is 50k capacity so it's not too big and not too small. I would definitely...

    Steve Mascord interview with David Collier

    Not sure what to make of the answer to question 1. seems to me like the fresh start with a new global event is being pushed to far into the future. really it's needed between 2018 and 2020 to accelerate what growth there is and prevent stagnation or reverse of gains. I fear we are just in for...

    Taumalolo and Holmes trialing for NFL?

    Utter garbage Mr Newton, it's a one way Street and you know it. the Nrl and clubs have every right to insist contractually that players be forbidden from trialling in other codes under contract.

    2017 NRL Club Membership

    Absolutely, it needs to be on sky sports or Bt sport which has turned into a legitimate challenger with a growing portfolio. having it stuck on the likes of premier sports serves no purpose at all

    Future NRL Stadiums

    Looks great a proper rectangular venue in this state for once. but why have Parra been so quiet on this release? I have not heard a peep from them meanwhile the promo showing it wanders colours and their CEO have been all over the various media platforms. if Parra are trying to make the...

    NRL faces major turmoil as clubs threaten breakaway league

    I never did like him as a commentator but my opinion of Gus as an administrator has deteriorated massively with his last few articles and role in this mess. he has shown his true colours clearly as being all about the clubs and not about the game Imagine this guy as NRL Ceo as was once touted...

    Can we learn something from super rugby?

    On the OP, the NRL could learn to not be afraid to expand its horizons and also to not let member clubs/associations run the show in the lunatic running the asylum style we have currently. Dreaming for a moment, If rugby league had a "super" model for its competition, might it be an entirely...

    NRL faces major turmoil as clubs threaten breakaway league

    As far as I am aware the mariners have zero to do with the running of soccer on the coast which is handled by a separate body Ccfootball. The article showing the clubs increased spend on football department fat beyond the increases in grants is shocking. they need to be reigned in and direct...

    Expansion won't happen anytime soon

    Cannot believe how they are doing this and ruling out any expansion is so short sighted its not funny. This would all be fine if 9/16 clubs were not based in sydney and we had additional presence in perth, Brisbane and NZ. I am hearing in some articles there will be teams added from across the...

    James Segeyaro wants out from Leeds

    Stand your ground and demand the transfer fee for any movement of the player. the player has signed an extended contract around which the club has made built the rest of their cap for 2017-18. No sympathy for him at all and I think it's pretty obvious this is a ploy to put pressure on the club...

    Brisbane Bombers Bid

    Not sad to see the end of this bid, but I have an overwhelming image of the game shooting itslef in both feet and possibly endangering it's future by not expanding in the NRL and 2Nd tier simultaneously.

    What is better: Friday 6pm or Sunday 6pm

    Sunday all the way. having my own boycott of the slot not that I would be able to watch until half time anyway. just rubbish from the leaders of the game, so out of touch.

    NYC scrapped!!

    The way they are designing it the best of the best will be signed to extended NRL squads and then likely play with affiliates if they are not quite ready for NRL. Has anybody been able to figure out if a) The queensland U20 will include Broncos, Cowboys, Titans teams or will it be entirely...

    NYC scrapped!!

    I disagree, why is it so important to have a strong under 20 competition? it offers.far more.to the game to have a stronger and more wide spread pro second tier. the main problem with the NYC was it seems to be the end of the road for those that don't graduate to first grade.
