    English RU's $8.7 million salary cap a threat to the NRL?

    Just to expand on that, a Rugby journalist in 2000 wrote that Rugby League would be in dead in the UK within 5 years because of RU. Needless, to say the UK Super League has grown in crowds and TV viewers every year since this journo made the comment. And I believe he wrote another article last...

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    If true. 40,000 should be attainable. BUT I have my doubts ... only because previous erroneous crowd overestimations by the media and such before have turned me into a bit of a pessimistic cynic when it comes to estimations of crowd numbers. I would not be surprised if the crowd tonight is...

    The AFL Debate

    I lived in Melbourne for 8 months and after seeing how non-AFL sports are discriminated against I say ... Get this crap thread off this board!!

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    And I have no doubt once Winter rolls in and daylight savings ends, Rugby League will reclaim the number 1 spot in Sydney and still reign supreme over the rest of NSW and QLD

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    Instead of focusing on one little negative, how about focusing on the positives. How about focusing on that: 1. RL destroyed AFL in the ratings in both Brisbane and Sydney AND not only that but AFL had AWFUL ratings even by their mediocre standards. 2. RL had 4 of the 6 top rating programs...

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    After living in Newcastle, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, NSW North Coast over the years I can safely say, Sydney is not Rugby League 'heartland'. NSW/QLD country hold that spot.

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    By the way, which week did BH & G beat RL? Was it last week? A week featuring Broncos and Roosters (2 teams in a matchup I wouldn't think garner big ratings)

    Anyone struggling to get Cat1 tix for tomorrow night?

    I am only concerned with Sydney FTA numbers ... the rest of QLD and NSW FTA AND Pay TV numbers I am thrilled with. Especially Pay TV numbers. If memory serves me correct, Rugby League destroyed all other programs (including AFL and Super 14). And when I say destroyed, I mean OBLITERATED!!

    Battle of Brisbane - Won

    I doubt we will ever see 'Bring back Balmain' ever again since he has proven himself to be the typical AFL ignoramous. 22 pages on the AFL forum in discussion about the 'Battle of the Codes'. Yeah, they don't talk about NRL in their forums. (Note for Bring Back Balmain: That was sarcasm)

    Battle of Brisbane - Won

    I lived in Melbourne for 8 months and the absolute Bullsh*t (both diatribe and ignorance) I had to hear and read about Rugby League from the media and the public was mind-boggling. I have never been in a city, and I have lived throughout the world, where a sport is trodden on so much by such a...

    Israel Folau signs $2 million deal

    I do believe that Brisbane don't deserve a taste of this great game. Throw the Broncos out of the comp! . . . . . Of course I am only kidding, but morons like you don't deserve to follow this game. You don't love the game at all cause if you did love the game you would know how f*cking...

    NRL vs NFL debate

    Rugby League players have more stamina (I played League for ten years and know a thing or two about this) NFL players (on the whole) are more athletic, have more skill, are stronger, and are quicker than Rugby League players These points are a given: Put it this way Compare the populations...

    NRL vs NFL debate

    Don't count on it. I don't even know who the QB will be, but Rhett Bomar was arguably the number one HS QB recruit two years ago and he has the potential to be the best Sooner QB in a long time. Iowa Hawkeyes...hmmm...trying to think if there are any other Hawkeyes...nope. You will have a good...

    NRL vs NFL debate

    I was born, bred and lived in Australia for 23 years. I then moved to the USA in 1998 and have lived here ever since. I knew nothing about American sports before I got here, but since I love sports (no matter what it is) I came to appreciate every sport this country has to offer (including Ice...
