It´so dumb. Only short sighted fools can´t see the big picture here.
The NRL should want AFL fans to adopt an NRL team. Work with them and not constantly create this fkn war that feeds and fuels simple people.

Working alongside the AFL so Australians have a team in both codes and even working the draw or membership options for example so a fans can adopt and even watch both their teams is the way forward. Their should be a model/plan heading in this direction. There is no chance when this clown talks.

When you have a leader who is so unprofessional saying stupid shit bagging out the biggest code and sounding like a moron that belongs in the Fight Club you are seriously f**ked. All he does is alienate the majority of passionate, payed up, attending football fans in this country which are AFL fans.

I cringe everytime that dickhead opens his mouth. He does so much good but then ruins it in two seconds when he opens his mouth.
While I agree with your sentiment, the AFL have never expressed a desire to work with rugby league. I’d say they see our game as getting in the way of theirs plus they’ve been guilty of a fair bit of trolling themselves, predicting QLD will became an AFL state a recent example.

That comment is a perfect example of the opposite. AFL after clicks in the RL states

Exactly.
They spruik their BS about Qld without batting an eyelid, then get shirty when it's done to them, albeit at a much higher level by PVL.
Difference is, we know what Vlandy's is doing, they actually believe the rhetoric about Qld.

Would the AFL want to work with NRL though? I see the AFL as a pretty untrustworthy and insidious organization who don't want to share with anyone.

A bit like the cringe that comes out of Gill's mouth about taking over QLD and Western Sydney. Don't Be so naive, the AFL would never work alongside or cooperate with the NRL, it is a code war and they know it as much as we do.

I personally think it’s a decade too early for america but good luck to pvl for having a crack

imo he should focus on our neck of the woods first and seek to be the dominant football code in aus nz and the pacific islands

once rugby league pathways in png nz and pi are maximised the nrl will be able to sustain a 24 team competition

being the biggest rugby competition in the world brings its own advantages

Sorry if this has already been posted but PVL has confirmed PNG as the 18th team.

“He (The Prime Minister) has a vision for the 18th team. The commission shares that vision. It’s not just about the 18th team and the impact on the NRL. It’s about participation and pathways in PNG. It’s a benefit to the whole of PNG.”

Not confirmed yet but it’s spot on
