Well you should. Going to games and supporting your team is what it's all about.

And of course someone from Australia isn't a Liverpoo FC fan..... to be honest I'm wary of anyone from outside the city of Liverpool who supports them.........support your hometown club, you glory hunting *******.

I think you are confusing the words "fan" and "supporter".

And yes, people from Australia can be Liverpool fans, of course they can.

It's bizarre to think otherwise.

Your welcome.....

so it looks like the debate is over.

RL is the number 1 australian sport.

yehaa.

Does it upset you that you claim it's bigger than AFL, your other favourite sport?

so he has dumped his club, then dumped his sport, then dumped his new sport, wonder when he will get the hump with the Stains and start supporting the warratahs?

What character the man has!

as long as RL is number 1 im happy

yay.

You knowledge of English rugby is small it is laughable.

RL will never overtake RU as an international sport - we simply don't have enough sides to have a meanigful competition and the distances between the sides is such that it makes games difficult to organise. In Wales, France and Ireland RU is a much bigger sport than Soccer, Italy has vibrant game with a big population. The structure of ticket distribution amongst the affiliated RU clubs also ensure massive crowds.

The revenues from these games - RBS - which had to be bailed out by the UK government - still continued it £40m sponsorship of the 6 nations - makes the RFU one of the richest sporting bodies in the UK.

RU has a much better TV deal than RL despite the viewing figures being approx 80k a game compared to 350k for a regular SL game.

RL has higher club attendances but this gap is closing - Leicester Tigers are extending their ground which will make them the best supported rugby club in the UK. 75,000 attended a club game in London over the Xmas period. RU has 2 meanigful cup competitions - a domestic cup and a pan European competition.

RU is a terrible game to watch - the skill levels are attrocious for full time players but its strength should not be under estimated - a bit like the comparison between the NRL and the AFL

I'm sure it's better than your knowledge of the Australian sporting "demographic"....



Absolute crap.

Utter .

Union is much bigger that Soccer in France, Ireland and Wales??????

x1,000

If there is anything McDonalds and RL has shown us it is that it doesn't matter how good or bad your product is, it's how you market it that matters!

again it looks like despite their best efforts, nobody can argue against the fact that RL is australias biggest sport.
