We have rugby league fans who don't give a hoot about the four nations. What chance is there with union fans?

Look at Quins-There is nothing compatible about the 2 codes. One is a wealthy mans afternoon out with his chums, the other a good sport.

Thats from someone with a ST for both codes-well not union this year as last season was too much to take at the union games

A prima donna and a fat faced little turd who famously turned and ran away from a one on one tackle.
Brilliant.

They should have the odd advertisement in the London region for the double header.

Although in a 30 sec ad there would be more action than in a England Union game.

what a great idea!
lets get shaun edwards,andy farrell,jason robinson,chris ashton,shontayne hape etc to front an advertising campaign during a break in the kicking competition to tell people that there are 2 types of rugby, this one you are watching with all the money,hype and media frenzy and the one that they used to play which is faster,more entertaining,skillful etc and to buy a ticket for the double header at wembley, or better still get gareth thomas and jonathan davies to do likewise in wales!
that'll sock it to em icon_smile.gif

Not a cat in hell's chance of this happening.

I am not saying the RFL wouldn't think of this but the IRB would make sure it would not happen. eusa_shifty.gif

Even if you take out the bits praising league that's still a good idea although I'm in the camp that says nobody is really watching this RUWC because of the times that it's on. Would probably be a waste of money unless it was a big game like a semi which would be embarrassing given the disparity in the hype between the two sports.

You guys need to move down here. I can't imagine a place where Union is more popular than league? :S Mind boggling...
Perhaps the internationals, even then, the NRL...

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Not seen much column inches in the papers about the play offs either. If you don't have sky or any rugby papers then rugby league does't exist.
The RFL marketing team have only just found out the difference between Intranet and Internet, maybe nothing exists outside of Red Hall.

I dont think the IRB have a say in it. The advertising would be done with the network.

Did you know that as long as an advert ticks all the rights boxes no tv channel is able to turn the advert down. Which is why a couple of years ago Crazy frog was everywhere.
