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



Quote: dally messenger "he was only talking about attendances cause hes a troll and he picks the bit that makes union look good whilst ignoring where it looks bad like all trolls do

no one knows of the wallabies in australia unlike our boys

inglis, slater, smith, lockyer, thurston etc are household names

i doubt many people in australia can name a wallaby player off the top of their head'"


Agreed again - but how is that a sport that nobody knows any of the players can fill the biggest sporting stadium in Australia?

Nobody is being troll - I am simply stating the facts - so are the attendances for RU internationals between NZ and Australia bigger/smaller than those of RL?

This isn't a trick question

Why do you bring it up for?


It's like saying our NRL attendances smash SL one's but you don't hear us carrying on about it.

The Wallabies v All Blacks at Sydney - the heartland of RL - in 2010 attracted a crowd of 70,288 - good job soccer has decimated their crowd, what was the attendance for the final of the 4 nations between the 2 RL nations

This is a fact not a troll

sorry thats not a sell out. you said "fill" stadiums, the wallabies havent had a sell out in years

why have crowds for this game slumped 14,000 since the soceroos made the world cup?

Quote: Sal Paradise "But it is still going and regularly draws crowds for games against NZ in Australia that RL could only dream about.

The two sports have very different focusses and if you think because you get a big TV deal you will kill rugby union and their players will all come to RL and kids will not want to play for the all blacks you are in for a nasty shock.'"


That was because the All Blacks bailed them out playing them most years.

It's a weird thing the Kangaroos have a better winning percentage then the All Blacks and don't attract the crowds that the AB's do.

I think the AB's still have that aura about them that's why they attract big crowds

The point is this - I will try and make it simple

Dally and his mates think that because the NRL will get a justified TV deal that they will be able kill RU off once and for all.

My point is this will not happen because the two sports are very different - RL has always relied on the clubs to generate its revenue and RU has always been underpinned by the international game.

Whilst there is still a media interest for the international game RU will always prosper regardless of what happens in RL.

the problem union has is given its weak club game, it need money from interationals to stay alive

but with soccer internationals dwarfing unions, where can they go now

if the soceroos stay strong it will only further damage union

if the wallabies and all blacks lose their best players interest in int. ru will slump even more

int. rl is on the rise again

look out for tonga, samoa and fiji with all their kids in the nrl

RL is well on its way to dominance in the pacific
