| Quote: RLBandit "If its the first step on the road to an eventual "Champions League" ( i.e. big games running through the season for sustained media interest, not some end-of-season week or two which gets a bit of coverage then forgotten about ) then it's excellent news. It's also a step on the road to making the regular season finishing position more relevant. All good.'"
If we're going to bridge that gap, we need to bring in revenue. The easiest way to do that is to chance the most lucrative sponsorship and television deals and those, whether we like it or not, are to be found in Australia.
The Aussies wouldn't be interested if there wasn't something in it for them so if it does come off, it's because they consider it viable. |

That's my issue with this.
Is it me, or do we just not have ANYONE within the RFL who understands what needs to be done to create an event?! I mean, don't get me wrong, I've seen some good signage, promotional material, etc. at games (Magic Weekend, Challenge Cup, Grand Final, etc) but they don't seem to understand what to do to make an event (other than a final) interesting.
Internationals, the Challenge Cup semi finals and the World Club Challenge should be A LOT bigger than they are, but because they are so short-sighted in their approach to the planning, they are just above average events at best. Not must see. It's frustrating because I see what they're doing with the RLWC and think that's near the level of build up they should have for every international series, and every WCC.

Perhaps. Or perhaps not. Or maybe somewhere between the two. Who knows .. so many questions. Please don't let it keep you awake at night, though. Concentrate on trying to troll better. There's a million times more chance of an expanded WCC than you ever posting anything a chimp couldn't.

You need to get some therapy for that stammer, too. |

As well as running Leeds Rhinos, Leeds Carnegie, The RFL and ,according to some Bradford fans, now Leeds-Bradford Airport, Hetherington is now also editor of the Express?
