It's all about becoming the US version of Indonesian Soccer on a multi.
MLR can really only benefit from any exposure to the glorious game of RUGBY.
Probably right about some players. Where would I rather play if cut.... Wentworthville Magpies or San Diego...
yeah I don’t think the gambling carrot is big as Vlandys is hyping it up to be…. It could lead to interest and FS1 or FS2 showing live games (there’s already NRL content on Fox soccer of all places)
my understanding is none of these pro leagues can stop gambling companies setting lines on competitions, but these leagues can have partnerships with providing players exclusive content.
There’s probably a tv deal somewhere there for Vlandys to hit and he will hype it up as an achievement. But it’s not going to be that big of a revenue bump to begin with.
who knows where rugby league is after 5 years - one thing that’s obvious is NRL is on the upswing where as super rugby is flat lining outside the hospital because of ambulance ramping.
