if NZ don't win the next union world cup i would expect Rugby League to overtake union within 5 years as regards sponsorship and playing numbers. even in the long term Rugby League is going to overtake union in NZ its just a matter of time. |

what NZ does in the union WC is irrelevant, thats short term
a 2nd NZ NRL side would be more important
if our next TV deal is a blockbuster well be able to raid the ranks of union players at will.
the S15 will be decimated |

RU was always dead and buried in nsw and queensland.....
The rebels lost 43 nil against the waratahs so it will die in melbourne too , they will not win a game all yr IMO.
Storm maybe cheats,but they are a world class team.And I bet they'll be in the GF this yr,so they stick up the NRL after last season fiasco.

A 2nd NZ NRL club in Wellington will be a huge blow for union in NZ.
A NRL club in Perth will be a huge blow for AFL in the TV viewers battle.
David Gallop and the NRL have the opportunity to put these lesser codes to the sword and i hope they do it. these lesser codes have tried every dirty trick possible to try and destroy us, as far as i am concered its pay back time now. |

the funny thing was when the ARU had $50 million to spend, taking RL on and it wasted $35 million of it in 3 years, at the same time its crowds and ratings collapsed.
the problem with union is you just cant polish a t**d.
we are the rugby of the fututre |

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

What some posters on here struggle to understand is the money in union is in the international game - club RU has never been that well supported.
RL is supposedly the biggest gig in Australia - if this is so could someone explain why attendances for RU international dwarf those of RL. In England where soccer is king England draw the biggest crowds of any national sporting side no matter who they play.
Whilst ever RU internationals continue to draw 70k+ on a very regular basis and TV is prepared to pay big bucks for the rights RU will always have sufficient funds for the game to progress and keep its best players regardless of the TV deal for the NRL.
RU has survived for nearly a century as an amateur sport - those who think that because the NRL getting a big TV deal will be the final nail in the coffin of RU are sadly mistaken.
On NZ do kids playing rugby want to be Dan Carter or Benji Marshall?

It will interesting to see how many crowds for week 1 of the NRL surpass the figure at Eden Park?
