Why are the nrl even looking into this rubbish thing?
8 games in brisbane? over 3 or 4 days? It will never work.
So if roosters and penrith in sydney can get only 9k, those 9k are going to travel up to brisbane? The game is pretty poorly attended in sydney....why do they think they would get high 40k crowds in brisbane?
I can't see many supporters traveling up to watch their team.
Wasnt this idea suggested by some manly guy? A terrible idea anyway.
If they want to raise money why don't the nrl sell state of origin separately; the games rate almost 4 million each, and the nrl lump them in with everything else....and tests, sell them separately.
who the F is letting this stuff happen? I know they sell it to their buddy who owns the other half of the company and half of another, and 25% of the next, and they kind of shunt it around, but for years before all this, origin was never sold alone....
they need to do it. origin is the biggest event in australia, arguably bigger than gf's.
and there is another thing....maybe they should sell the finals separately too?
If they would let it happen. The whole news/buddy-system has to stop.
All it is to us is a weekend away or for those living in brissy already, a rl grab at suncorp.
Its such a pathetic attempt at starting something, and it sounds as bad as a double header, which to me was always about double the games but keep same value perception....in that, twice as much doesn't mean twice as good.
This will flop. Spend effort elsewhere.
