| Lol, the nrl's under 20's comp draws bigger audiences than RU in Australia!
NRL salary cap increased, super 15 decreased
People watching NRL >>>>>>>>> people watching super 15
$$$$'s in NRL >>>>>>>>> $$$'s in super15
The fact that union needs need to throw silly money at a 32year old numptie shows the lack of young talent in that code.

Did you even read the link? Its not just about Australia. The gap between Rugby league and Rugby Union worldwide is bigger than ever.

| It's a union newspaper, why would any RL fan take any notice of this article?

He's suggesting that because some French club with a rich owner is throwing silly money at an old Australian has been RU is somehow taking over from RL, in an Australian paper for an Australian audience. Reality is NRL has a large number of players on $750k-$1.2million, the game has more money by a country mile than union in Australia and is the biggest domestic "rugby" competition in the world. It's a fluff piece by a union numptie who can see the writing on the wall for an inferior product in his home country. And oh how we laugh....

Probably something to do with the attendances, tv ratings, merchandise sales, media rights deals, social media interactions, and any other measure you care to think of.

Spot on!
By the way, passing through sydney airport the other day i noticed ALL THE SHOPS Selling sporting goods or souveniers has Izzy and the wallabies to the fore and ONE had a couple of roos shirts at the back. Surely the NRL could stretch to having their own store at the airport? I mean to say, League is obviously streets ahead of union in aussie but a tourist wouldn't know that and unless the NRL are happy to keep flogging NRL stuff to the same audience for more money,something needs to change to get NEW FANS

| RL in Australia has the same problem it has here. Yes it's very popular, but it's also unfashionable and terrible at PR which makes outsiders not realise how popular it is or want to be associated with it.
Whenever I tell people that RL is massively more popular than union in Australia they're always surprised, they assume union is the major code of rugby there because of the wallabies.
