If you listen to the puppet Annesley on his weekly NRL review he says that the play should’ve been stopped!
Anyway pissoff back to your forum, oh hang on you guys don’t have enough supporters to have a forum
We do though - The Chookpen is where you find most of them- Roosters would have kicked a field goal instead then if the game was stopped as they had a few tackles left.
I enjoyed the season myself and have watched it from the start and hopefully the state leagues /NRL/Clubs will get fully behind the women's game from the grass roots up to NRLW level and fund it as it should be.
Maybe some of the Broadcast payments can be allocated to the Women's game as well- Do Channel 9/Fox/Kayo etc pay to show/call NRLW games or is this a add on?
The goal I assume would be for all NRL clubs to have a NRLW side although Abdo was talking about Pacific Island teams/PNG/Perth and saying new teams don't have to be linked to an NRL club.
That would be ridiculous in my view -Clubs could bring these players to Aus or from other states say to play in Junior reps/Senior rep pathway teams.
They will need to have equivalent junior and senior rep pathways as what currently exists for male players - i.e Harold Matthews/Andrew Johns and Laurie Daley cups/SG Ball/Jersey Flegg/ NSW Cup and their QLD equivalent.
Currently they have Tarsha Gale Cup under 19's/ NSW Womens Premiership and QLD equivalent comps plus a Lisa Fiaola cup under 17's which is played on a weekend only.
Need to have more than that including local comps -city/regions
