Well, I had no idea that the A League was so influential that it led to the creation of women’s sports, the international popularity of T20 cricket, and Brexit.
Sarcasm is not your strong suite.
I understand you don’t believe it, and maybe even think there is an agenda.
If you don’t think the A-League was a sports market disrupter, then so be it. Most evidence and commentary of the time suggest otherwise. Yep other forms of cricket were in play no one is denying that, and no one is saying it was the only or even major reason, simply it was commentated on by many within the cricket and AFL and netball world in Australia.
However and far more important is how rugby has reacted to the changing Australian sporting landscape.
As I said IMO we have two choices, attempt to develop a totally new operating system by introducing private capital and a franchise team concept. Or stay as we are and hope things will get better.
We are in terminal decline, and unless we have the courage nay balls to challenge the status-que and just develop a system for rugby then we will drift at an increasing rate into indifference in the Australian sporting market.
My ideas to halt this and introduce both capital and smarts is I think well understood and its not super rugby.
