He is talking garbage and miss truths when he states "We’re a global game, we’re not kicking around in a tiddlywink competition like the NRL, which is only played in this part of the world.”

So RL is only played in NSW and Qld huh, or just Sydney?

Thickhead.

Arrogant comments like this is one of the reasons I've turned off union over the years. I've spent some time with the privileged grammar people sneering at Rugby League when the state Union is in here in Australia is a disgrace.

The worst quality NRL game is better then the average Super Rugby game and even Wallabies tests. I was at the Reds a couple of weeks ago and it was the so boring with the continued stoppages and slow service. Even the Wests Tigers have more attacking skills then the Wallaby backs.

Union looks pretty good when they are moving the ball around with passes. The long passes by the scrum half look pretty good. The competition for the ball aspect if also good. But there is too much kicking and far too many penalties and also rucking.
League should aim to look less and less like Rugby Union as time goes by. Instead I feel like the game of rugby league is becoming more like Rugby Union again.

How? How is league becoming more like rugby union?
I don’t mind union but I can’t get over how op and boring a driving mall try is. It is basically an obstruction that is too weighted towards the attack.
If he thinks the best and biggest domestic rugby competition in the world is tiddlywinks then what does that say about the other comps.
Obviously union has a bigger global reach, but when comparing the comps it’s quite clear which one is superior.

I turned off it because it’s utter shit to watch

Oh really and then we have Toronto playing Toulouse in France on the weekend with over 6000 in a second division comp in attendance and down the road in Perpignon over 8000 watching Catalans.

Plus with 4 rounds played in the SL, the ratings are over 1.7 million so far with an average of around 250,000 per match. Not bad seeing as only two SL games are shown on pay TV each week. Would you like to compare the Australian Super Union TV averages with those?

LOL.

Watch the rugby world cup in Japan later this year and then you might get some perspective.

It's actually a pretty astute move by this chap: sardonic swipes at Rugby League are en vogue and this is a sure-fire way to get himself and his club some column space in the ABC and News Ltd press.
