I grew up supporting Everton (Neville Southall = God
) and didn't get into Rugby League until I was about 18, and I agree RL could gain many more fans if more people were exposed to the game.
There's alot of disillusionment with football, the diving, the obscene salaries, egomaniacs all over the place. RL is a real antidote to all of that.
Were not going to convert the masses, but RL is a very attractive sport. When I first started watching it, I didn't know guys as hard as this existed
, it was an eye-opener, and now I can hardly watch Football, it's too annoying
