Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 3147394, member: 8423"] I reckon the AFL will honestly be laughing at how lucky they have been through no work of their own (and I actually don’t mind because I also love the Lions) but at a time when all three Queensland teams have been going horribly and the flagship state club is tracking fo be the worst team EVER defensively, the AFL Qld teams are flying. Throw in the fact that Qld is now the AFL centre and NSW could be shut down any second (including the NRL), the exposure the AFL will get will damage the NRL in the longer term. It won’t show up in the next year or two necessarily but it will in the next generation. The Lions are playing tough and attractive AFL and look set to be up near the top for the next five-ten years. The suns play an exciting, fast brand and they are tracking up rapidly and will be a heavyweight by next year. Meanwhile, the NRL has a huge gulf between their best and worst, a salary cap that doesn’t work and Qld teams who play absolute trash. The fact the flagship club is not even trying and is being run into the ground is compounding the issue in a year where AFL will be making massive in roads into the state. [/QUOTE]
