At the end of the day we are rugby league and we always will be and not this league garbage.
I know a few Aussies call it league or footy but I could not care less.

Its quite simple.

Just call it 'Footy' like we do in civilised countries.


'Football' is Soccer


AFL is also referred to as footy, most people just know it as AFL though

Or 'GayFL' depending on what you think of it

Quote: Leaguefan "How about" RUGBY LEAGUE THE GREATEST GAME IN THE WORLD (TM)"

Trademark it, market it, promote it

Stick it on everything RL especially if it moves.

Just keep hammering the message home!!!




or just keep thinking that RL revolves around whether a 2nd rate club in cheshire deserves a spot in a league that rewards mediocrity.


As it stands the 2nd option is all that people on here care about and the game is slowly losing interest amongst the larger populace.'"


..........and your alternative to the second option is?

it's 'RL' and must remain so - otherwise it would simply be known as 'L'

imagine the 'RFL' becoming the 'FL' ?

would BARLA become BALA ?

certainly better than just 'League',that's for sure

what would sound good is 'Saint Helens Super League Champions 2011' icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE: eusa_clap.gif

I'd be more inclined to drop the 'League' bit and prefix 'Rugby' with some superlative and then hammer that name home with a huge and never ending PR.

That would eventually get the RU authorities in a knicker twist as their attempts to hijack the word 'Rugby' gets gazumped. They've successfully pinched the 'Rugby World Cup' title from us and anyone who thinks their persistent use of the word rugby, without the Union bit, is anything but an attempt to cut RL out is just being naive.

"oh why did he kick that ball? that's why it's a try!":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28639.gif



Don't forget that Association Football "hijacked" the term "football", or by necessity of its populiarty became the code of football above Aussie Rules Football, Gaelic Football, Rugby Football League, Rugby Football Union, etc...

By removing the term Rugby from the name of our sport, it might as well become the sport known only by [ivia negativa[/i.
