Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 2888208, member: 8814"] International rugby league is alive and well. For people that don't believe me: Watch the Fijian welcome for the kangaroos Watch the insanity of the crowd when a 3rd string kangaroos side drive through on a bus ANYWHERE in PNG Take a walk through New Zealand where you will see 5 or 6 nrl jerseys on any given day of the year Sit in the 7,000 plus crowd in Toronto watching them play a 2nd division English Go to the magic weekend in England Talk to the local Lebanon competition players in the Lebanon squad Cheer in French as Catalan or Toulouse score a try against a welsh team in the challenge cup Go to the welcoming of the Tongan team in their homeland And on and on and on it goes...... I can't believe the arrogance of some Australian rugby league fans, the disregard of Australian soccer or union fans when they can't even see the fruits of their international dominance in their own homeland, and the irony of afl fans even opening their mouths when international sport is discussed.... Rugby league isn't internationally massive, but its growing and has a foothold in world sport. It matters to a lot more people in the world then it's given credit for... Just wondering if everyone else is excited for the World Cup and whether everyone wants to see our game succeed around the world like I do? [/QUOTE]
