Do you reckon if the nrl opened the comp every year with easts v South's at sfs ..

The afl would never schedule a swans game at scg ? On same night ..

I reckon they would do it just for shits and giggles

I think the NRL could do worse than try and create an opening game tradition at the new Parramatta Stadium.

Parra vs Broncos every year at Parra Stadium

You'd be watching the swans whenever they played

and you'd be there for it

yet you have never ever attended one NRL game. you never even post in the Parra forum or any other RL topic apart from this

That was because of the comm games earlier that year. Otherwise you have to go back to 1990 when it wasn’t the last Saturday in September. Not rocket science but clearly not many brain cells in the scheduling department. As I said even if there is doubt you don’t put Melbourne’s Thursday night game at this time, save it for when they are most likely a stand alone game to maximise attendance. Not hard.

This is patently untrue. It's been in October multiple times in the past two decades. AFL seem to flick back and forth with that, so it's perfectly reasonable to assume they might not have started the season tonight.

And we are done, kids have gone to the other room to watch the AFL. In the words of my 12yo, “there’s nobody there Dad, this is boring.” That’s your next generation right there!!

This is why I think it’s better to have games at small suburban grounds.
That’s not the case tonight it was scheduling but for the Sydney crowds.

We seem to get money from broadcasting rights so make it look good on tv.

Derp

We know when the afl gf is, it’s just a matter of working backwards from that

You wouldn’t happen to work for the nrl would you? Your IQ matches up nicely

You are also a derp. It’d take two minutes and a quick call to the McG to figure out the gf day

Go play in the traffic

the NRL draw was out way before the flogball one was

Oh dear, how many times were you dropped on your head as a kid?

not as many as you

i seem to recall the two Sydney teams opened their season some time

edit: also just looked at a few other years and it was different teams in 2014, 2013, 2012, 2007, 2006, 2005 and i could go on forever

the AFL have also only started their season earlier for about two years so you're story aint true

You my friend are a special type of special. Let me know if you need help with anything, I feel bad for you xoxo

So clever.

The draw was probably outsourced to AFL fans lol

AFL fans cant count past one though

genius post.

pot kettle black.

 

[footy75]

Regardless of the AFL game tonight (yes it was terrible scheduling, no doubt) still should of been a bigger turn out by Storm fans coming off a premiership. I dread to think what will happen when they go through a lull period.

 

[Suitman]

I'm sure the NRL had a fair idea when the AFL season was starting and there was a high chance they would be up against a match like this.

And this is what pisses me off the most about the NRL.
They were so proud of the fact they now had control of the draw yet they schedule games likes this in this time slot. As well as a local derby between St George vs Sharks in an equally awful time slot.
It just doesn't make any sense
