Thanks Sheek,

My opinion on cheerleaders, is that the money can be better spent elsewhere.

I have never met a cheerleader, so have no grounds to make any judgement on them as people.

I agree with nearly all of your second paragraph, except that I think: contrary to popular belief, God is probably NOT TRUE. (or at least, he/she doesn’t belong in a cheer leading debate)

I do however, loath the annual beauty pageant The Footy Show has with- ‘The sexiest men in league competition’. I think its superficial, narcissistic and encourages unnecessary sexualisation of footy players (they really don’t need it- they get enough). But keen to know what you think.

I’ve also never met Russell Crowe, so can’t comment on whether he is a goose or not.

I don’t think cheerleaders are an important fabric in the tapestry of rugby league because as the others have said (in the NRL at least) they’re just not that good at what they do.

NRL entertainment should stretch further than cheerleaders

Thanks oikee,
But I’d rather not join the A-League – they play soccer.
But I do think some sports do the game day experience much better than rugby league and soccer is an example of that.
After going to an EPL game a couple of years ago, I realized what Aussies are missing out on – I hardly watched the game, but was throughly entertained by the crowd.
I think league fans are passionate enough to go crazy for their teams in the same way that European soccer fans do. We just need a little push to get going. I seriously doubt the actual cheer leading abilities of ‘cheerleaders’.
If you don’t like chanting and cheering at football matches I suggest you stay home and watch the league from the couch.

Or if the ARL did it to Jeopardize the independent commission? haha. Will News Limited have to hang around now to get their money back?

Melbourne Storm still have it all to play for
