So you're just ignoring the content of the posts you're responding to now. Childish trolls be trolling.

The good folk of Chch wanted to watch the Crusaders, deal with it. If they didn't that ground wouldn't exist as a functioning sports ground today.
So they can go watch them in a park. You know damn well if the shoe was on the other foot we'd be playing in a park

this is the depth rugby league has now

the pathways from nz and the islands are strong

kiwi juniors especially are exploding
You're wrong mate. Despite a record number Kiwis in the NRL, record crowds, record TV audiences, a record NZ TV deal and the Warriors junior pathways full of talented young NZers no one in NZ cares... Te Kaha told me so.

you think our bunker is bad

samoa scored a try and the video ref looked at it and confined it. They took the conversion

the vr looked at it again and denied it

samoa would’ve beaten England
England f**king getting another free pass in the world cup.

You get sensitive when we point out the shortcomings of your favourite sport don't you Dane. Don't worry, I'm sure the Japanese Tongans will go well in the next Woeld Cup and you'll be able to catch them live 😉
That's the worst case of projection I've seen is a while lol.

I'm sorry that pointing out international RL's short comings upset you.

Seriously mate, that chip on your shoulder can't be healthy. How can you have so little empathy for people affected by a tragedy just due to the fact you hate a sport. It's very strange.

Has Jack howarth even been to nz before Lol?
His mother is Maori so I'd assume so (he's related to JWH), but he seems like he's locked into the Oz system so is a waste of a selection if he hasn't declared for NZ.

That seems a pretty weak team for an A team TBH. I would have thought it would be a team of at least first graders and fringe first graders.

No, international RL has a long way to go and a lot of development and growing up to do. Neither I, nor the governing body desperately refer to it as a global sport though.

Nice twisting, I have all the sympathy in the world for the folk of Christchurch. Union as a sport though can rot and die for all I care.

unfortunately there's a lot of unavailable players for nz atm.
The bright side is that they are blooding them into the system at young ages now. The earlier you they get to know each other and form combinations the better.

In that case you would have no issue whatsoever with Addington being sub-leased from CRL, and re-developed, so that the folk of Christchurch can watch sport (including the one you hate) while waiting the many years for their new ground to be built.

I don't think there's too much going on today and it isn't a forever war.. it really not possible these days so much but you do need to understand that Union has stifled Rugby league on mass around the world throughout its history.
The RA director was trying to publicly undermine League less than a month ago.
It does happen whether or not you want to acknowledge it or not.

You should try follow league in England where the southern union loving Media lay the boot in all the time, or totally ignore the sport exists!

Maybe having a club from London in super league would be a good idea

and another in Newcastle and one in toulose

or Toronto even ?

All of those had their chance and non took it. Why would the southern English media care if there was another northern club or a French club or A canadian club in SL? A successful London club agreed, but we’ve been waiting for that for 25 years.
It’s as much a class as club geography issue.
