[RL The greatest game]

Tell who?

The truth to my questions

 

[Harry O]

Dwanker claims he's a Broncos fan, I bet he couldn't name one player in that team. Hurry up google it why don't you?

[Ralphy Twanger]

Your racist afl mates.

We have a lynching on the 14th, will that suffice?

Australia should stop stockpiling Pacific Islanders to start - tualagi, nene, tino, Holmes, Fifita, ….. hammer, goes on and on. they should be playing for the Pacific teams….

We also need the best players to front up for their countries as well.

It would seem in our quest to make Samoa and Tonga more competitive we may have weakened the only nation capable of beating australia. Maybe that was the ARLC‘s plan all along l

No better sign of the death of FTA than these ratings.

[Ride the Lion to Zion]

For those who don’t recall (and why would you) I had this idea in January/February

South Pacific Rugby League (SPRL)

The NRL is no longer an appropriate name for our comp. We consist of teams from two countries, not one. The name is too Australia centric. My proposal is to rename the comp and to rebuild it into a truly South Pacific Competition. I’m proposing three new teams: PNG NZ2 Perth or Brisbane 3 With...

I remember looking at the first Auckland Warriors jersey in 95 and thinking the Australian RL badge jarred a bit.

NRL has been a highly successful branding exercise for the comp and the game. I wouldn't change the name. The word "national" is usefully generic. Can be interpreted as "elite".

So players born in Australia. Can't play for Australia?

Apparently they are ‘Pacific Islanders’. Does my head in this does.

We all want a stronger International game but in most cases there is Australian/NZ and a parent or Grandparent born in an island

It’s an outrage!

 

[Wb1234]

Maybe we should copy afl and ban australia from international competition lmao

real shame the hammer switched to Australia and why isn’t taumalomo playing for tonga when he’s boxing

nz look a bit weak samoa looks good.’ Australia will probably win but it’s a meh side

Yep. That’s why the heritage rule applies well. But they are not ‘Pacific Islanders’. They are Australians of pacific island heritage. I have no problems them choosing to play for their country of heritage. It’s great for the game and it’s seeing growth across Tonga, Samoa and Fiji as a result. Good problem to have.

For whatever reason, the AFL doesnt want AFL players involved in its International Cup, preferring to keep it low profile and completely amateur. Im convinced the only reason they even have the Cup is so Brian Clarke doesnt do his own again.

Having spoken to several other international AFL orgs, they dont seem too keen on having AFL players join their ranks for it either.

Id have very much liked to have seen a rugby league type heritage selection process, but no one really gives a damn.

Outside of Victoria and a few wasteland states of Australia, that last sentence pretty much sums up AFLs place in world sport

Said it a million times, it’s a completely different sport with its own set of pro’s and con’s, comparing the 2 codes is apples and oranges, I don’t care what anyone says AFL is bigger in Australia overall, fans are much more passionate and they have a much larger following in the NRL states than we do in the AFL states.

It has probably cost the AFL hundreds of millions to establish the east coast expansion clubs, gaining a foothold in RL territory hasn’t come cheap, are the NRL willing to spend that kind of money to gain a real following in the southern states? Do they have the money?
