Mosies always seem to be the bridesmaids, NZ is fast improving, expect the Americans and canadians to improve their rankings, but the Irish always have good running games.

A not so harebrained idea for an Aussie Rules World Cup

They undertook the necessary checks IMO, as could be expected of footballers, if they had taken a sample to a lab to have it checked and the lab lied or got the reults wrong do you still think they are repsonsible ?, should they still be suspended.

ASADA will lose this because quite clearly the players are under the belief they did nothing wrong.

It was not a cult of 34 players getting together to take banned substances.

The poor Essendon players that built the Death Star

Some clubs do, and some clubs don’t, i reckon Freo play and win ugly, and GC seem to play very fast open football, but of course are yet to prove themselves in September.

AFL boss admits some games unattractive

Serial killers have more rights, and a right to a fairer trial than what ASADA offers.

Making sense of the Essendon doping scandal and ASADA’s case

Well said, junior numbers are down in Western Sydney.

Forgot abouit Fahey, you can also add in the anti AFL ‘scoops’ that Roy Masters, Bourbon Bec Wilson etc came up with !.

Love SOO, great to see RL palyers belt the living suitcase out of each other ( more than usual) it is quite entertaining, bring back the biff.

AFL vs NRL: Battle of the Gold Coast

Overall AFL crowds are up, drop in Melbourne, big increase in Adelaide and Sydney, the rest roughly the same.

AFL vs NRL: Battle of the Gold Coast

They were on top of the ladder, and crowds still decreasing, that says quite a lot really.

AFL vs NRL: Battle of the Gold Coast

I never mentioned selling AF, just mentioned that perhaps it is the game of RL that people on the GC, for probably a multitude of reasons don’t like any more, and judging by ever decreasing crowd averages, that actually seems to be the case.

In one game you must actually contest the ball to take posession of the ball, in another you are not allowed to contest, you must just play the man, which you are doing quite well ATM.

AFL vs NRL: Battle of the Gold Coast

Lions have bad form over a number of years, the Titans dont.

That is the difference.

A couple of games in Perth is not 11 or 12 home games a year, big difference again.

Titans should move, they are on the nose, Ipswich needs a RL team.

AFL vs NRL: Battle of the Gold Coast

Debateable whether NZ V Australia in rugby is just really NZ V NZ 3rds or fourths, seems to be going more and more that way.

Skelton turns into All Black destroyer on debut

Peter Dutton private school in Qld, bastion of Rugby ( St Pauls)

Garry Downes that old boys bastion of Rugby in Sydney ( Newington College)

Ben Mcdevitt ( strongest Rugby school in Canberra ) Marist College.

Appears all the rugby boys are leading the push to discredit the AFL.

Love SOO, nothing better than seeing RL players belt the living suitcase out of each other , with the football being secondary, has it always been this way.

State of Origin is Australia's greatest contest

I guess that then begs the question of why ACT born players represent NSW ?.

I reckon you’d know a silly comment when you see one, you no doubt have plenty of experience constructing them.

The trouble with AFL in Queensland

Yes, yes, yes RL is doing very well on the GC, thanks CC.

Everthing is up except interest.

NRL must scrap Monday night footy during Origin

Kids free, but only if they sit in the stand that is seen on TV, it really is verging on pathetic.

Move them to Ipswich, that is RL country.

Yes i do understand that, i also understand that being in 1st place on the ladder usually results in larger crowds, tumbling down the ladder does not, the Titans will have a lower crowd average every year for the last 7 years.

They are now below last years average, an average that has been on the slide since 2008, that is long term proof they are on the nose.

At one stage they were 1st on the ladder, and still the crowds dwindle, what happens when they are last.

They appear to have no real fans.

Titans are slowly, actually no !!, quickly falling off the pace.

Wet and excited is far better than dry and boring, Titans seem to be providing the latter.

Titans average crowds have been falling every year since 2008, it is not a new thing, move to Ipswich, they like RL there.

Titans average crowds are down 47% since 2008

I think you are wrong here, i think most reasonable people do not believe they are cheats, but there is a huge group of people who believe they are.

And lets face it most football fans are unreasonable and irrational, that is half the attraction.

I think it has been very unfair on the players, it is obvious to me, that they did not think they were particpating in systematic drug cheating on any scale, and whilst the current Essendon action is based on a technicality, if it clears the players it will be no worse than the continued stuff up from ASADA and the media sniping and whoring, in this whole sorry mess.

You are right though, it is the club that has failed, it should not be the players who pay the price.

AFL boss says ASADA case has dragged on

I think you could be right.

AFL boss says ASADA case has dragged on

Perhaps the Titans should move to Ipswich, where there is actually a real RL fan base.

They are falling further and further behind the GC Suns FC in crowds, junior participation, sponsorship and branding.

Adelaidewill is a RL fan.
