not good for RU in the SH if they lose lots of their good players
the NRL will bag a few as well.
RU players can continue into their early 30s with the pace of the sport ....
i think the wallabies are losing some key men as well including giteau |

The good news is I'm totally out of my closet now big boy.
Fancy a schoonie sometime?
Wear your nice shiny polyester league shorts and I'll slip into my silky Fremantle Dockers guernsey and meet you outside the Discovery Zone gift shop down the Corso in 20 mins

| Quote: Rooster Booster "Why is Dally laughing at other sports, considering the highest attended NRL game this weekend was only about 350 people more than the lowest attended AFL game?
Or Manly4ever applauding that nearly 70,000 people in Sydney went to watch RL over the weekend, when over 60,000 in Melbourne went to watch ONE game.
Every now and then, people should just keep schtum and stop this finger pointing.'"
Oh how very very true.
Maybe most fans are just fed up with the sleaze, the scandals, the rorting and all the other unsavoury stuff that follows the NRL around like a bad smell and have decided to support other sports?

Most are moving to France to cash in. The only country that seems to have its act together with regards to rugby league is Australia. The other top two nations will lose their players to union, which is better organised and better funded.
This is not a comment on the quality of the sports but on the abilities of respective leagues. |

The French Union are picking up a fair few AB's......Henry has gone on record to say that he wants all his players contact negotiations sorted before the tournament starts.....the form of a few current AB's would seem to be suffering as a result of this on-going saga.....
....I remember the days when to pull on your national shirt was the highest honour you could achieve in most sports...now it seems to be about how much money you can screw out of a club 
In other news...670 posts on ths forums front page (about 25 threads) yet 460 of these are on this thread  |

[quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

the next NRL TV deal is going to be worth DOUBLE the S15s...
well be signing RU players at will now ...
after this world cup RU in the SH is in a world of trouble
between French RU clubs and the NRL the S15 is basically going to be demolished |
