    The Las Vegas Thread

    Not too sure about logistics and time zones, but Nashville might be all right once the new stadium is done. Bring a bit of country flavour to proceedings. Has become quite a popular tourist destination. Weather should hopefully be all right in March.

    New content kings: the independent creators changing the NRL’s media dynamic

    It’s not always about getting direct revenue from it. There is value in just creating further fan engagement and becoming entrenched in the cultural fabric of the State or country. It also taps into a younger audience that doesn’t always engage in traditional media. Becoming what people are...

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    This was always going to be the outcome. The trouble with the Gabba is that it would be a great location if it was a greenfield site and a little bit bigger. It would be a nightmare to try and renovate or rebuild what is currently there and would cause massive disruptions to the City. The...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    M There is no way NRL goes back to delayed telecasts on FTA. Have people forgotten how rubbish it was when there was the delayed Sunday 4pm game and the second Friday night game which seemed to end at midnight. The NRL needs to actually get a FTA game every Saturday night for every round...

    2025 Streaming and TV Ratings Discussion

    We Well if they are half as smart as they think they are, they would be stressing. They haven’t always been the biggest sport in this country and there is a lot of momentum with rugby league these days. There is a reason they are starting. To talk about having Origin again, promoting...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    I would agree that at the moment, the AFL is a high dividend paying stock, but if you were looking for high capital growth going forward, NRL has all the potential. The biggest loser will ultimately be Union in this country. Once they have burnt through any extra money from the Lions tour and...

    Peter V'landys - New NRL/ARLC Chairman

    Certainly a lot more growth potential for NRL than the AFL. Where can the AFL go from here? Tasmania? Darwin? Both would be costing more money than they bring in. No chance of international expansion. AFLW has already been expanded too much and is a crap product and none of the clubs want to...

    Perth Bears

    There is no way that Ipswich will add more to the growth of the game than Perth in the long term. They are already fairly entrenched league supporters.

    Wouldn’t Origin kick off at 6pm (8pm AEST)?

    Campbell Newman is.an opinionated twat. I suggest if the Save Victoria Park people want the public on their side, they ask him to stay home next time.

    I couldn’t think of anything worse than trying to watch an NFL game from the top tier of the MCG for 3 hours, except for maybe an AFL match.

    As much as I think Union is an inferior game, people will be willing to shell out to attend the rugby World Cup as it is a major event. Just as we watch all those ridiculous sports at the Olympics every 4 years, that we wouldn’t dream of watching any other time.

    I don’t feel sorry for Canberrans because they continue to vote the same merkins in election after election.

    I doubt a poll in the Sydney Morning Herald is very reflective of what Brisbane residents want. Even in Sydney, the SMH has a certain readership that is not broadly representative of the vast majority of residents of that city.

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    I would suggest extremely difficult and costly to build where the railway yards and zero chance of happening. Doomben would also be very unlikely as is just a thought bubble from the Gold Coast Mayor. In terms of location I believe the best location is the RNA Showgrounds and getting the RNA...

    With Government budgets the way they are these days, the only way this sort of thing is happening would be through joint private public finance model that involved more than just building of stadiums.

    Victoria being shut out is a great result for NRL and the Storm. RA was going to get $100 million, regardless of where matches are held. Victoria will always be AFL territory, but this decision ensures the NRL will remain and always will be the dominant other oval football code in the second...

    Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

    I’m sure they do to a limited degree, but this was more about leveraging off a new national u21 competition to really ramp up the pursuit of young talent into the game, especially the Pacific nations. Maybe they could use it to get a few US athletes on board who don’t want to end up with...

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    I actually don’t mind that as a location. Would depend on costs and issues with land resumption. I say that as someone who prefers VIC Park over a redeveloped Gabba.
