i have made up my mind

i think its funny you spent that amount of time trying to make me look hypocritical

NRL clubs have a fulltime CEO and marketing people.

yes, all RL clubs should have them

because crowds are poop and should be better and over time the game is showing massive growth in SL which will flow on to lower down as money gets better.

just trust me.

Dally for RFL Chief Exec Officer.



He's way ahead of his time with his pinpoint targetting of the games' troubled hot spots.

No time at all - and you are hypocritacal, you dont just look it.

thanks for your support, it means so much

so looking it and being it are different eh?

thanks for your help there.

Your welcome.

I usually give my support to the needy at least once during the year. Until today i was fast running out of time. My conscience is now clear for another 12 months.

What crowds do Newtown and North Sydney get in their comp? Or the rest of the teams in the NSW Cup for that matter?

Yes but they are the equivalent to SL , all clubs should have them , but not all clubs can afford them , and at the level many clubs are at , they dont need them

Many clubs at Championship level are run by people who already work for the chairmen/owners of the club in their other businesses

And it's no good having a F/T marketing man if you dont give him a budget

Yes we know they SHOULD , but why,how ? , what can clubs do to get more fans ?

Just saying something should happen isn't exactly giving much idea how to make something happen

I ' Should ' be a millionaire , but I'm not

And what is this money that ' gets better ' ? , where does that come from ?

What would be the cost of setting up and funding a SL club outside the heartlands until it could become a self sustaining business ?

Should the RFL/SKY fund expansion in either SL or the Championships directly in the same way that News Int have funded the Melbourne Storm ?

And is that what should have happened to the Celtic Crusaders ?

you shouldve saved it for halifax, more needy than me or you

crowds of 2000 after 130 years, they need all the fans they can get

newtown and north sydney are clubs with little relevance to RL in australia now

newtown 1000 - 2000, nths - 800.

norths havent given up returning to the nrl, newtown are just a feeder club for an nrl team.

fair enough

heres the point, things need to change. many clubs are going nowhere and dieing a slow death

for example why are leighs crowds so cr*p with a fantastic brand new stadium?

why cant a heartland club like fax also get crowds of 4000.

1. firstly im bullish on RL in general. SL has shown with the right development massive growth can occur. NL1 gets fairly good TV ratings, so that should generate a fair enough TV deal in the future. as SL also grows interst in RL will grow and there will be a trickle down for all parts of the game

2. some clubs should be getting much bigger crowds now. leigh, fax for example. this would help other clubs via larger away fans and give all clubs more money

3. youve said heartland clubs often can find rich backers to support them. clearly thats important.

4. current crowds are pathetic. it shouldnt be hard to tripple them with a little bit of effort. games are now on TV getting the comeptition more attention, which should help

Change the record you moron.

In and amongst those 130 years our highest crowd is 29,153. We used to get 6,000+ in the eighties. We've had our ups, we've had our downs. When reveiwing 130 years you don't just look at the last 6 during a highly unsuccesful spell.

No doubt you'll live till your 87 and in all those years you'll never stop being a prick.

Yep - you got that right.

Jesus wept. What a vague and wooly post that is. Coulda woulda shoulda. You're full of it Dally.

One question pertaining to all that crap you've just typed up. How?

I reckon 10 chairmen of the Championship are sat reading your post thinking....."F*** me, why didn't i think of that? Get me Dally on the phone right now....."

You're flakier than a Cadbury's 99.

That is shocking to say they play in the biggest RL region in the world where the game is the national sport and there isn't any other compition from Soccer or Rugby Union.

An embarrasment in fact. Why aren't they pulling in 4 or 5 thousand per match?

=#FF0000How ?

Leighs crowds are crap because

1. people prefer the old ground 2. we cannot be promoted By what happens on the pitch 3. many locals will not watch non top tier RL 4 . a general apathy about the sport 4. last year we were crap 5/6/7/8 many other reasons too complicated to post

So once again ' HOW ' do things need to change , and dont just say they do

HOW ? , What needs to be done ?

nice try.

in australia if you arent in the nrl you are dead pretty much.

meaningless.

It's a pity that Dally is too thick to realize the irony.

the funny thing is all these silly little traps people set thinking theyll catch me out

the thing is, unlike others, i dont lie to make my points so you wont catch me out like this,
