Afl the only game where you get a point for missing, I'm still trying to.put my head around that, I don't think there's any other sport like it

You know, our day games Saturday and Sunday are prime time Friday and Saturday nights in the USA...
Live on fox sports when the NFL season is over... imagine people in the USA at bars around the country going " what's this?"
Rugby league is about to go nuclear

I don't know how many people watch CBS news, but I'd guess more people saw this than watch SOO....does that make Aaron Woods the world's most famous league player

And for all the sooks complaing that Americans are calling Rugby Leage "Rugby" you'll be glad to see Woods corrects them lol

Hats off to Woodsy who has been a great ambassador

Just bumping this CBS news report for those that didn't see, ( for the majority of us with generic page settings it got stuck as the last post on the previous page), it's pretty cool and well worth a watch.

Tickets only $19usd ! If it doesn't sell out can't complain that the reason was overpriced tickets.

And big props to Woodsie for keeping it real...using "youse" instead of "you"

Considering the biggest and greatest sport in the world football hasn’t fully been able to crack the American market, I doubt it will go “nuclear”.

The fear from the AFL trolls is real.

Imagine living life so triggered by the NRL you spend you're free time trolling league forums : D

You obviously don't live in Australia if you don't think league has taken over NSW and QLD lol

Keep it coming @footyfan4life League fans take it as a.complaint when fans of other codes are so triggered by our tiny sport

And when it becomes colossal, then you can go cry with your afl flog mates

 

[Dr Dr Gimedanews]

cannot fat shame for fear of hurting the fat f**kers feelings

Na, @footyfan4life is a Union fan, he was particularly active on these boards when the Wallabies were eliminated from the WC by Fiji lol

It made him feel better telling us how small our sport is

Is there just a bunch of people bitching about the Las Vegas idea being a bad idea in this thread?

Not me, I’m excited about it. Wish I could go.

 

[Dark Corner]

Really? I thought it was kinda standard but with the cool twist of an NRL guy interviewing NFL and vice versa.
Perfect cross code promotion.
Put the NRL in view of LA rams fans.. " who are these Australian guys?"

This promotion is going fantastic! And it has to. You want full awareness by kick off.

I thought it was going to be a proper training session with NRL and NFL guys.

I prey and I day dream and would love to see something big happen to the NRL in America and successful cross over with the NFL and I know nothing big would happen but you never know....what if NFL fans did get into NRL big time.
