Soon someone will start banging on because the SS is playing the same weekend of subbies.
For one weekend you can be spoilt for choice you can watch NRC or SS - having a sook want change it.
This thing of "echo chambers" is over done, but honestly. If supporters of SS/SRU do not understand the damage they have done to their reputation outside of NSW premier rugby, I just dont know how to get it across. And you (plural) are determindly not listening. (Fingers in ears going "lalalalala".)
Cettainly WA fans now consider NSW rugby as just the pits. I dont think ACT and Vic are far behind.
And when the SRU talks about the "golden days" where you had a better chance of WB selection in reserve grade at Randwick than Premier rugby in Qld - well you do understand that Qld rugby fans dont look back on those days with warm reminiscence, right? And thats the stuff we are meant to recognise the inherent "greatness" of, well the SRU and its clubs.
Hey, I'm not talking super rugby franchise fans here , I'm talking your compatriots in other states. Club rugby and the grass roots outside of Sydney.
The self trashing of good will by NSW to the broader rugby world is extrordinary. Home goal of epic proportions.
But hell, just put it down to "having a sook". Why not.
