Thats quite decent

There are three general levels of sport, those that play it for fun, those that are paid professionals, and those wanting to join the professional ranks. Both the professional level and the play for fun rely on each other. The professional level need fans and new players coming through thus...

Been thinking about our competitive sporting market and how it views international sporting teams. Last week Brazil V Argentina had a crowd of 95K, the Soccceroos two nights latter 30K. Hockey, Volleyball, Basketball all huge international sports and yet they struggle badly in Australia for...

Don't know but what screamed at me was this. From around 7:30 to say 10:00 on Thursday 10 MasterChef 562K AFL on 7 /mate 464k NRL on 9/gem 410K ABC shows 441K Add the WCQ 262K Thats, 2,139K like wow if we add all the other little things at the same time say around 2.5 million out of a...

That's interesting little pre media and promotion and playing against a middle eastern side where there is little tradition . We play Fiji slightly less media but a traditional foe. Will be interesting to compare. Also the NRL and AFL put replays of their grand finals on the same night...

Anyone got any info on the suncorp withdrwal How much and what they have withdrawn.

Thats an excellent article and I think largely true.

We are not talking about the A-League we are talking about the NRC. It does not need much money at all. Take the existing SS teams in Sydney, add teams from the Gong, Central Coast, Newcastle Hunter, Brisbane, and say a OLD regional, a Melbourne competition and a Pert competition. Lets say...

BINGO . BINGO. BINGO. Has the penny dropped, the existing structure sorry organisational structure is in need of fixing. I have often posted FFA spent almost four years in discussion with their state federations former NSL teams, the district associations. FFA had the same actually a...

to take the current framework and realities and work within that. The current reality is not working and in need of fixing with a view to medium to long term planning. Yours is to basically take a blank slate and start again with your preferred structure. Nothing could be further from the...

^^^^^ BH, I don't think we will ever agree on the NRC. No disrespect intended, but I feel you represent many in rugby, and where you see rugby and where you see it going, I feel we over a beer we would disagree on most things pertaining to rugby. The essential difference between us IMO is...

Thanks for the questions. What would the new version look like. Either a 8 or 10 team competition running when Super Rugby runs now. What should the structure be? The existing 5 Super Rugby teams, plus 3 to 5 others, say Newcastle ? hunter, Central Coast etc. The ARU would run and control the...

Just on the NRC. I among others have called it out from day one as rushed and would end in tears. Looks like its heading that way. I gain no pleasure in saying the "" Nobody Really Cares""" competition structure was wrong and I still think this. Maybe its time we took a leaf out of Frank...

Feel the pain. Same here, I left for a few weeks and came back hoping against hope that we could maintain where we were . If they drop a side I am gone for good and forever. I posted a while back, the damage being done to Rugby with media partners, sponsors, the general public and their...

The article I read said three sponsors had pulled out BMW was another unsure who the third Sponsor is

No was out for 14 weeks ... it was suppose to heal in 6 weeks but I had torn other things as well... Can still see the disbelief and anger of this guy, he was a break away, when he got kicked in the head and I wend down.

wow what state

Four broken fingers Torn calf, lost count. Various arm injuries never broken but from bruised to strained Broken ankle, sorry hair line fracture, was actually funny how it happened, I was know for constantly talking on the field and the captain of the other side charged me and dived at...

HHHMMMmm slightly scared to post this. What the hell, as most of you know my wife is a very keen soccer person. Given out woes I kinda decided to leave Super Rugby and look at local park teams. I still need a degree of high level sport and in the interest of getting fed soccer has seen me arrive...
