Right. As you have made it clear in the past that you don't actually respect anyone's opinion or knowledge base apart from that of your own. Please, enlighten me exactly how awarding a title while not actually doing anything functionally different would result in anything tangibly better off...

A shuffling of titles would have made exactly zero actual difference.

Take a match to the entire structure of the game in the country. Eliminate the the Unions at the State and regional level and re-structure the entire organisation.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again but expecting different results. That pretty much sums up the Wallabies and Australian Rugby at present for me. I'm having a really hard time staying interested in the Wallabies at present. To the point where I no longer bother...

They also mentioned the lack of coverage on The Roar. Suggesting that they were being actively moderated for being Force fans. It's a sports site not RA's own version of the Stasi. Keeping tabs and silencing critics. I even suggested a way of getting more coverage of the Force on the site. Use...

Mate, just read through his posts here. You don't like the use of messiah. Okay, fine. Perhaps it is a little strong for some. But go over to TWF and read what's going on there. There are a group of them claiming that they are being actively suppressed across several forums GAGR included. Come...

It is not being sanctimonious to suggest that the best thing to do is move forward and help make GRR a success both on and off the field. If you were able to look at anything regarding this topic with a sense on objectivity you'd notice that my sentiment is actually very supportive of GRR...

I actually contributed to the 'Own the Force' initiative.

It depends on the poster. I find Kiap generally even tempered on most things. ForceFan, not so much. He seems to need to maintain a sense of outrage and indignation which can be rather polarising. I want GRR to succeed as I think the whole Force saga is a blight on the game. But the belligerence...

Yeah, AFL is a deceptively complex game. I agree with your general sentiment and I've for some time believed we should have a tiered system with the formats we use. For the youngest (infants in primary school) we use Touch 7s and then 7s in years 3 and 4 and 10s in 5 and 6. The formats that get...

This whole venture needs to be a slow burn. Even with mass marketing, big names and good turnouts there's no way he'd realise a ROI within a 10-15 years period. Even taking into account the population base, the growing middle class in the region and the projected economic growth. Even with the...

Travel and accommodation and marquee signings will be managed by GRR themselves. So he'd be covering that. Pretty sure everything else is covered by the participating groups. All that has been made pretty public via bits and pieces in different articles over the past 12 months. I suspect...

Luke Beauchamp has signed with Houston in MLR. Any good?

The Drua are already formed as are Hong Kong.

I got that. But is he still going in 2020?

What as in not in 2019 but will in 2020 or not at all?

No argument there. Hopefully we'll begin to see some actual promotion and marketing for GRR before Christmas.

To be fair a lot the delays have been down to Rugby authorities but I do get what you're saying. I'm happy for Forrest to give this a go and hope its a success. I hope it grows and we get to see the mooted WS team as I know when that happens I'll be supporting it in the competition. The lack...

Really? Looking to do a Jordan Mailata is he? Off to the IMG Academy in Florida. Edit: Joined the NFL Pathways Program. So he will be at the IMG Academy in Florida.

I suggest that it would be dependent on whether the World League concept and how much it may offer. In terms of low drawing we really don't know that. When was the last time we played Japan in Australia? We've never played the USA. And there are other smaller venues we could use. They both...
