Have You Heard Of Or Do You Watch NRL? (Australian Rugby League)

[SBW]

I think it's shown on Setanta sports in the US. Not too sure though.

I know for a fact State Of Origin (New South Wales V Queensland) is shown around the world.

 

[YIPPIE KI YAY!]

Yeah i watch NRL,im really dissapointed that the storm won this year,i hate them !

 

[SBW]

Who's your team, champ?

Take a guess who mine is.....

 

[YIPPIE KI YAY!]

I did go for the Knights for years but im not going for them until Brian Smith gets the sack,i Go for the eels now
ummm just to venture a guess,im gonna say that you go for the Bulldogs ! lol

 

[SBW]

Knights need to be privatised and be bought by a Millionaire to save them otherwise they will forever be like this. (South Sydney style)

Good guess LOL. Bloody Parra. Knocked out all of our three grades!

Yeah, mate it is. Also, the NRL Grand Final is also shown around the world. They mentioned exactly which countries they were going to but couldn't really hear it.

Well I've heard SOO is pretty popular overseas. I can see why though. Best of the best competing and smashing each other.

 

[fazza]

Yer, SOO is really competitive aswell
I live in Newcastle but I HATE the Knights,
GO THE TIGERS!!!!

Finally another NRL fan here lol,who do u think will win next year

That's a tough one. I'd like to say Bulldogs but our halves need fixing. Sadly, Sherwin has seen much better days.

I can't tell you who will win but the contendors will be:

Bulldogs
Brisbane
Saints
Storm
Parra
And Manly

 

[YIPPIE KI YAY!]

i think the top contenders for the premiership next year will be
Storm (obvious)
Bulldogs(they came close this year)
Parra(Hayne,Inu,Mateo are some of the most talented players i've seen in a while)
Broncos(They always do)
Cowboys(good this year)
Manly(Great this year)
and i have a Feeling that the Titans may be a contender

 

[SBW]

Forgot about Cowboys. As long as Thurston and Bowen (Their entire team) can stay on the field, they will go close.

Parra will always be contenders but as long as Finch and Smith are the halves, they will not win the Premiership. They are too alike and they tend to choke/go MIA.

DONT SPAM GIVE REASONS WHY YOU THINK THIS OR THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You

 

[SBW]

Who, AJ?

 

[RVDgurl]

Who, AJ?

Most of the posts in this thread are spam or pretty close to it. Keep up the debates, but just make sure that you guys are giving reasons for your opinions.

 

[fazza]

Even though I am a Tigers fan i do think we have the ability to come close to winning next year, im not saying we will, im just saying that we have the ability and the talent to do so.
We play the most entertaining and dangerous type of footy and sometimes it works well and sometimes it just means more mistakes.
I think if Benji can stay on the field for the whole season, which would be a miricle, he can produce something special out of nothing.
Thats just my opinion.

Newcastle will make the top 8 next year if buderus remains fit,they have some of the best juniors coming through eg cory paterson joel brown and akuila uate this guys will be stars

 

[s-dog]

brisbane are always in there.. gotta love the good old broncos. but sadly the good old days are behind us in league.

more and more we are seeing players get paid rediculous amounts of money and getting too big for the game.
anybody from australia who is reading about willie mason at the moment would understand what i mean.

 

[HBK-aholic]

Yeah I love it. Support the Manly Sea Eagles.
Watch Super League (The English version) more though. I support Leeds Rhinos, and have a season ticket

 

[stevensnk]

would you be more inclined to say the British Super League is more competitive than the NRL?

i haven't watched much Super League so i wouldn't really know? but from what i have seen i'd have to say NRL because we have some of the best players in the world at the moment.

would love to know what you think?

In recent years Super League has become a lot more competitive, and if you look at it from the viewpoint of the table, the competition is a lot closer. The latest season was a time when any team, from 1-12 on the table, could beat any other team.

NRL is very competitive, and in the match I'd say in some ways you get a higher level of skill, because, as you rightly say, the NRL have some of the bes players in the world. But the NRL need to be aware, English Super League has done nothing but go up in recent years, and I wouldn't be shocked if soon they were just as big as the NRL is now.

NRL is a great sport. i go for the storm and love the game. Do they still have that exhibition game at the end of the season against the premiers of the super league?
