Okay but should other fans be alienated then coz of club land loyalists who put time in on Saturday morning and afternoon? Are you saying rugby fans not affiliated to a club should be alienated , as well as plastic fans who only watch on tv when a big game is on(plastic fans bring in tv ratings$).
There is no time slot that will appeal to all fans

The two lingering questions from an incredible weekend of Super Rugby finals

Your comment annoyed me that Americans only care about American sports . Baseball basketball and ice hockey are all global sports Train.

Exactly , just one specific group . And one specific group shouldn’t alter a whole schedule . Get over it

And Kerr is not a late developer , you really have nfi brainstrust

Is Sam Kerr the greatest footballer Australia has ever seen?

Zelic vs Dutch to qualify olyroos for 92 Olympics . Him and Okon were Socceroos best 1994-1999.

Kewell stepped up in loads of big games. Viduka was always a handful and acted as a decoy often and great captain

What a silly comment by you brainstrust.

You don’t rate players based on when there past there prime Eg Lucas Neil . Lucas Neil was great in his prime .

You are so wrong on kewell you are annoying me now. Iran he scored in both legs , was our best vs Uruguay in 2001 legs . 2005 2nd leg he was awesome , and in 2006 World Cup vs Croatia .

Are you saying Hiddink has no idea ? He made viduka captain and he drew in defenders every time he played.

Your comment is so silly I don’t know where to start with you

Is Sam Kerr the greatest footballer Australia has ever seen?

Soccer in Australia has no control over private school pathways of soccer players, just public schools do they have a say.

What should we do with private school football?

Your backtracking now

Is Sam Kerr the greatest footballer Australia has ever seen?

You are all over the place. You are only looking at from random you. Lots of rugby fans ain’t involved in community rugby and want Saturday night from an attendance point of view. And many want sat night who are involved in community rugby and Sunday arvo a non rugby day to do other stuff. Your time slot option doesn’t suit most , Next.

Your saying private schools are not obligated to care about the Socceroos and are not elite soccer academies and rabbid dog soccer fans should back off.

What should we do with private school football?

What are you trying to say? What’s the World Cup and wallabies have to do with having kiwi teams in our domestic comp?

Wrong brainstrust. Women’s tennis has more depth now than ever, this is the toughest period in its history and ash is no 1. She has won loads of tournaments this yr.

Cahill came off the bench often though

Ronaldo has won a European championship and been outstanding in many World Cup qualifiers and World Cup . Messi to. Messi was man of the match in the 2014 World Cup final losing side

Is Sam Kerr the greatest footballer Australia has ever seen?

Yes I do. An Oz only comp ideally

The two lingering questions from an incredible weekend of Super Rugby finals

Ash is the best Oz tennis player male or female last ten yrs no one is debating that Eg world no 1 for a decent length of time and has won a grand slam title etc.

But it’s just not me. Nrl ratings in 2021 aren’t good and junior participation is down.
Are you saying there are fans in 2021 who would know the names of 70% Of all 16 clubs roster? Up to 2010 I used to know 90%-95% of all players in the nrl.

Season 2021 has shown us we should be optimistic about rugby league

Rugby league is in National decline. Crowds are down , tv ratings down , junior participation down , country RL is terminal decline . The sport has become robotic and less big hits. The sport was way more popular with the masses in the 90’s and 2000’s. The average 45yr old middle age man in Sydney doesn’t watch NRL anymore .
Some will say most sports fans are an 18-38 demographic and always have been, so if the nrl has less middle aged people watching it doesn’t matter as that’s not there target market. But I don’t see young ppl following footy much these days. I’m middle aged and I hardly know any new players since 2010. I used to know every team sheet of teams from 1985-2010 etc. I couldn’t tell you 95% of players in the nrl these days etc.

Season 2021 has shown us we should be optimistic about rugby league

But super rugby went for 23yrs and we travelled to South Africa and had high travel costs.

Your all over the place with contractions. So what ya saying is you think Sunday afternoon is best time to stage the grand final? And that doesn’t rate as high on tv and that equals less money and people are busy on Sunday afternoon to you know . No time slot is perfect. I like Saturday night as it’s the best option for the majority .

Love the bledisloe

The two lingering questions from an incredible weekend of Super Rugby finals

There is some good private school soccer. Some sorta private schools Sydney or nsw state knockout comp etc. I often would get annoyed at private schools with there lack of concern for developing more competitive competition structures to help the wallabies etc. but facts are they don’t wanna help elite sport the school boards that run these private schools, and don’t see at as obligation to help Aussie national sports teams.
So to cut it short, private schools don’t wanna help A-League franchises or the Socceroos become more competitive and don’t care at all how well or how bad the Socceroos go.
All I can add is, be grateful soccer is even on there schools sports curriculum as for most of these private schools history, soccer wasn’t even a sport offered at these schools…

What should we do with private school football?

No. She hasn’t stepped up enough in big World Cup qualifiers or World Cup or Asian cup or Olympics . Harry kewell Tim Cahill Viduka Ned Zelic are all ahead of her as is Lucas Neil and Schwarcher

I don’t want trans Tasman super rugby to be back, so it’s not a woo hoo from me. I only want a full time pro NRC

The two lingering questions from an incredible weekend of Super Rugby finals

I’d like a full time pro NRC, or just one kiwi side(like NRL with Warriors).
Netball ditched the kiwi teams.
And then we have an Asian Pacific champions league style over the course of the season to find champs of Asia pacific(Japan aust nz, best Hong Kong side). But an all Aussie NRC full time pro comp with lots of foreign imports I’d like.
I’ve heard some say Richard kahui and rob kearney at force is bad for wallabies and Oz rugby as it’s blocking pathway for young Aussie players. Boo hoo , I want a more competitive force. So yep next yr, just have a full time pro NRC and no kiwi teams in our domestic comp. but allow lots of foreign imports and private owners. Heck have a privately owned comp seperate from RA. Abandon wallaby first model and centralisation, and let RA focus just on wallabies. No kiwi teams next yr. no Aussie fans are missing South African super rugby sides that’s obvious.
