On the forum but outside of this thread (which is at least in response to a dick media comment) there are thousands of unprovoked posts disparaging rugby union.

Ohhh silly me, I thought we were discussing this thread, as you said “ lots of chips on this threads shoulders”.

Are you a tad confused?

Okay, you guys win. If I hear anyone make a disparaging remark about league, I’m going to start a thread and be bitter about it too. Definitely the best approach.

Give me the NRL over the Super Rugby

I’m watching the Reds with dad and the Reds are so poor the Bulldogs would destroy them

some pretty embarrassing behaviour in here, and any thread where other codes are mentioned

for people that don't care about the other footballs you sure do spend a lot of time talking about them

Rugby League is not the most popular sport in the world, who gives a f**k

Both of these statements can be true at the same time:
Rugby Union is weaker than Rugby League in Australia.
Rugby Union is stronger than Rugby League globally.

Pretty much. Some average comments in this thread. He is not wrong. League is not as popular on a global scale as Union.

Same can be said about the relationship between AFL and NRL. NRL fans like to wheel out the argument that league is bigger than AFL on a global scale (when AFL fans say thsir sport is more popular domestically). Well Union fans can then "one up" NRL fans on the same argument. That's what he's just doing here.
