Proof of junior participation dropping?
Seems like the game is on the up this season, higher crowds, great TV audience (top in Oz) etc etc.
Soccer just had the world cup, and nobody (in Australia) gave a crap. Or is it still going?
He's good enough for Manly but we've 'dodged a bullet'?
of course it will grow. it isn't competing against the other football codes anymore. moving to a summer comp was the smartest thing soccer did. I am pretty sure soccer crowds dropped once the two major codes kicked off this year.Our Quality in soccer is probably 10 x better than it was prior to the A-League.I wouldn't say poor.Its not he premier league but its not terrible either.Average would be better word to use.
When I am at the shops now I see more wander's jerseys than nrl teams.6 yrs ago I never noticed one soccer jersey.
There was no realy money in soccer here.Now they are getting 250 million in tv deals over 5 yrs. I think the NRL's last one was around 500million so 250 is quite good.
There are also good sponsorship deals in soccer now.And players can make a good amount of money to play in it.As it gets better and the more money is generated the better players it will attract and better juniors which will make a better league and quality.
25 yrs ago soccer had most jnrs but no hero's for kids to dream of becoming..Now a 10yld says " I want to be like tim cahill " or I want to play for Sydney FC. Not too many would of been saying I want to play for Marconi or the bonyrigg.
Personally I think soccer will only get bigger. I hate the wanderers I think parra Is big enough for one team and that's the eels.But lets not compare crowds![]()
that could work.LBAs per kilo?
Another thing is we don't have to fight Soccer.The guys who play soccer and league are different body builds physically. It wont make an impact at the high end level of either of our games.
Exactly.
But you were the one saying league was dying because of soccer....![]()
Where have the good posters gone who actually used to know info about signings?
Sorry but you guys are just shit talkers.
It would be a shame to lose Sio but in the face of an aggressive offer from the Sharks we would be silly to try and match it.
Hey ME, didnt Stagger post about Matterson yesterday and the last signing we made (IDG) was announced on here in advance - what's your problem?
By the way, when are you going to keep giving us your tips for the horses mate?

if we think somebody is offering "overs" to poach a player, does that mean if we keep him for less we got him for "unders" :?
