Remember when we mocked the AFL and their push into China? well now its our turn.
You said you worked in Aged care, maybe you meant to say you are in Aged Care because you sure do see the negative side of things like an oldie. At least stop hanging around your clients.
They`re giving this five years, that`s a big commitment and really giving it a chance to gain traction. Expect V`landy`s and Abdo to build a whole lot of hoopla around it and really give it a chance at succeeding and if it does take off, well, Magic Round U.S.A., pre-season with couple of Super-League clubs, maybe more weekends and double-headers over there. This is definitely worth a try.

I'll give it two lol But hey you might be right, it might not be mocked, it might crack the 'expansive' USA market, it might not end up the same way other forays have.

Id have thought sorting out the mess that is international RL would have been a more important thing to spend time on, but what do I know.

Supposedly the NRL is willing to piss away $200M on 5 double headers in the US.

But expansion beyond the Tweed Heads border is to costly and difficult.

'Only last month was it reported the NRL was attempting to capitalise on the expansive American market, '

they seem to have missed the word 'betting' out of the sentence lol

I went to the first one in Shanghai when I was still living in China. Some credit to the AFL was plenty of promotion throughout the city, and the day was pretty good, an AFL game is meh but the experience was decent. Scored a dozen or so Tim Tam packs too that were being handed out randomly.

Perth Red is a moron, but can any of you explain how he is wrong? This forum mocked AFL for months/years over taking a game to China. Will the forum do the same over this?

And if not, what's the difference?
I said Perth Red was a whinger. That’s it. Am I wrong?
