The Ghost of Raelene

It wouldn't work. Nobody would care after a couple of rounds.I don't think sevens even garners much interest amongst rusted-on rugby fans.
It really is a niche sport
Interest spikes at the Comm Games and Olympics then the home event.
I'm interested to see if the Olympic years may be when the Women's game will peak in a cycle. Why wouldn't they go play League since they want the entire comp to go fully professional. If your'e good enough to make rep games then it's more on top. it's sad to see the Wallaroos at times and the players left seem to be the ones not wanted by NRLW teams. It seemed prior to RIO the side was built off a lot of players with touch backgrounds which lends itself perfectly to 7s and the NRLW didn't exist at the time. Will we keep getting our hands on them with competition now and more jobs on offer?
