Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg |

Just put a blindfold on and throw a dart at a map. Might as well with some of the suggestions floated around here over the years.
Huh, what do you know. Sahara Desert Storm.

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

NRL style? Australia only has one team outside of its RL heartlands in 100 years+. Not exactly a great expansion model to follow!
Lets see if they do expand next year and where to before the prasie begins.

Is it true that Richard Agar's favorite movie of all time is Groundhog Day or does he just generally like the same boring s**t day after day, season after season?:10603.jpg |

So Townsville, Melbourne and Auckland are all RL heartlands? I don't think so.
It pretty easy to see what your feelings are about the state of aussie rl and how it has expanded over the years, it's even easier to see how or when your attitude would change.
JB's feelings on rl expansion in Oz is as follows:
No team from Perth = e
A team based in Perth = excellent |

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.
Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg |

If I could expand the game anywhere? Well that's easy. I'd expand it into every school, collage and university in the UK.
That should help improve the game's exposure and provide an increase to the home-grown player pool

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

I'd disagree on that one , in NZ , Auckland has always been the primary RL area , still not as strong as union , but a heartland without doubt

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

Somewhere in the Midlands, say Birmingham or Coventry.

I'd also query whether Townsville was ever devoid of rugby league. Surely North Queensland is as strong a rugby league area as can be.

It wasn't devoid of RL, but it was hardly an RL heartland before the cowboys were born. |
