The RFL/SKY wanted a London franchise/team in their new summer rugby League revolution but in 17 years have not lifted a finger to help them.....yet again, the Northern Sport that wants to seem national retreats into it's shell.....and in world cup year too.....shocking ![]()
There are 12 clubs based in those two areas. Only one in London.
I would hope a large part of the RFL's negotiation is based upon there being a good level of national advertising by whomever is broadcasting the World Cup.
Personally, i think with at this time, and with our limited budget this is probably a sensible way to go. IF there is to be money for nationally televising SL it should be spent next year to capitalize on the World Cup.

Obviously to do with cost! On their log tables it's not gonna pay. So no go in London and Wales.

I think London could better spend 20k+ on marketing than a single TV ad and I would hope that London arent being left out. |

Some television advertising - geographically targeted and aimed at football fans - is an improvement on no advertising at all.
Yet because it's not national television advertising, in what is likely to be a pretty expensive time slot, the RFL have got it wrong again, apparently.
Some people need to seriously temper their ambitions for the game in the short term.

Far more likely to succeed both short and long term. Maximise you earnings were you are strong first and when you have use it to spread the word.

Which Australia is this? The one which expanded to take in the Warriors? The one which subsidises the strategic expansion club Melbourne Storm? The one which has taken games to expansion areas like Perth, Adelaide, Wellington, Waikato, which are literally thousands of miles from their home grounds? The one which took in teams from Adelaide, Perth, Auckland, Melbourne, Canberra? The one which deliberately targeted certain TV markets for new clubs? or the one which is talking about admitting a team from 2000miles away from Sydney in Perth or 1700miles away in Port Moresby?
interest in the NRL sydney isnt 'at breaking point' it is massively over-catered for, its why so many Sydney Clubs are in so much financial difficulty. That is why the NRL is needing to expand, and its why it almost certainly wont be in Sydney

As much as the RFL get stuff wrong, they are geniuses compared to the idiot in charge at London at the moment.....As much I would love to see the RFL/SKY help out, it would have to be after the current CEO has returned to cricket! |

It's all very well singing the praises of the NRL, but don't forget that they didn't/don't have football deeply ingrained in their society and which in the UK probably accounts for over 70% of all sports fans in the country. (fast and loose with the % there but won't be far off) |

National or localised I still can't believe people are criticising this.
If the RFL has the resources i'm sure they would make it national, but they don't have so they can't.

Considering Wigan have run numerous adverts in similar slots on Granada, I'm disappointed that the RFL didn't try to expand just slightly to the Midlands or North East.

Yup, really great to see this.
Hopefully they're holding back some funds to advertise across the regions that are hosting WC matches later in the year. |

Yep. But even in the North regions it will have a pretty large audience. This is a good step IMO, as someone elsewhere has said - there's a massive catchment area that Rugby League would do well to exploit better than it currently does.
Get better crowds in the existing fixtures and that will make the marketing/money men sit up and take more notice. |
