    Ftzsmmns will be apoplectic. Lots of raised eyebrows and haughty looks at each other on ABC`s Offsiders as well. :laughing::laughing::laughing:

    Mate that will be long forgotten when the next election rolls around and hopefully the Perth franchise is mid-table and packing out HBF every other week and doing their state proud. Also being rewarded by the NRL with other League events won`t hurt either.

    Being on FoxSports FTA won`t hurt either. As we sit here the NRL are doing a stack of targeted marketing in the U.S. involving all sorts of personalities and other sports, hopefully this combined with the FTA coverage will lead to increased local interest in future years. I wouldn`t be...

    This headline in the Western Oz today, can anyone open it. "NRL WA: Premier Roger Cook denies handshake deal has been done" Also had this by-line: "Cook denies deal as budding NRL price tag kept under wraps" Sounds like it`s very close.

    The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

    50 posts that I thought made pretty good sense. The only one I thought made sense in the `for` argument side was the extra money the NFL makes hosting it at the MCG.

    I love the idea but you don`t think that the 10hr flight time would be an issue.

    No, the fumblers have long-memories. Hell hath no fury, like a fumble-fan spurned.

    Does it mean squat if companies like Amazon, Netflix, Disney and so on start getting the broadcast rights to the big international sports like F1, EPL, UFC, boxing etc. what does it leave for companies like DAZN who want to be a sports only streaming service, could make local sports like ours...

    I wonder if the English market is something worth exploring more. Known travellers for following their teams and a lot cheaper than from Oz. If the event becomes well enough known as an event in `rugby` circles is it too much to hope that we might be able also attract some of the union crowd. 15...

    PNG's back.

    That probably doesn`t include those on 457 visas, as I said I read in the The Australian or the SMH there are now 100 000 Papuans living and working in Oz. These papers are pretty reliable. The PNG team have 10 years to get their franchise functioning, that should be ample time, and like any...

    Jesus mate, that is one of the most plug ignorant observations I`ve read yet. Bloody hell, somebody even posted on here that the fumbleball forums were abuzz when the PNG franchise was announced, with genuine interest in how it would go and they are not even League fans. There`s 100k Papuans...

    And if Foxtel lose NRL rights, combined with speculation that Ch7 may not be able to afford their side of the deal, maybe this: "DAZN bought the rights to Ligue 1 — French football’s premier league — in August. A month later, viewers were abandoning the platform and illegally streaming matches...

    Think big picture mate, I expect that`s what V`landys is doing. We`re going to have a competition with an arc from Western Australia to NZ, with massive expansion into the geopolitically crucial Pacific. Remember Wong was invited to the inauguration, French President and English PM weren`t...

    PNG's back.

    Two days ago, maybe yesterday you said: "sign up Perth, Christchurch, make PNG a massive success and sign a massive TV deal " Rose tinted glasses anyone. Tonight you`re lecturing us on returns on social investment; normal programming has resumed.

    "Aging bonobos lose their playful streak and become noticeably more irritable in old age." They are our closest relative apparently, some more closely related than others.

    Yeah I heard they`re holding an NFL game in Melbourne, wonder how the fumblers feel about going to a game that is far more similar to League, probably just remind them what a ridiculous lightweight oddity their game is.

    Who cares, every one of those Australians will have American friends, relatives and workmates whom I`m sure some of them will invite, that`s how it starts to grow. Annual weekend in Vegas for a party with fellow Aussies and League lovers.
