Parrafan101 "This is corruption at its finest"
Maybe some History Lessons could be appropriate PF.
It seems appropriate that you have chosen Mick Ennis as your Avatar, he tends to waffle on with a pile of verbage without really saying anything!
Well that's the thing we more likely play them in Vegas next year. Meaning 4 out of 5 years we play them round 1.
Corruption? They try and put on the best games possible for views. Plus this is all AI apparently. Can we stop this whole the NRL are out to get us trope?
I would prefer to play them round 1 than 6, given the changes they are experiencing, really what difference does it make unless you people are worried about us winning and then being complacent about our second game?
Now, that sounds like the Parra we all know!
Just a little bit over this us against them mentality where we should as a club be in a position where any club draws us and thinks "seriously? Why them?"
If we got Brisbane some here would say corruption we get the reigning premiers.
They try and put on the best games possible for views.
This right here is the problem. Fucking this whole "managed for entertainment" shit idea right off...vegas too...and that would allow a randomized draw.
Are you not entertained?
At the end of the day they are an entertainment business. It is true and the way of the sport. Same with the comment that TV runs the league. That is also true and is the reason for where the game is in terms of money.
I do feel though regardless of how the footy is, if not micromanaged by the game to force entertainment, people would still watch. Hey i would love Parra winning all their games even if it was 4-2 score everyweek, as long as we win who cares.
Thing that the NRL noticed over the last few years with pre-season is if footy is on people will watch regardless. As to why now they televise every single pre-season game. So yeah they shouldn't focus on making it entertaining as the game does that on it's own more times than not.
Vegas i 100% agree with. There is no need for it now. Even the NRL have noticed with the idea of moving it to Wembly or other nations as the novelty has died quickly. There is no enthusiasm for it this year, if anything as a viewer it is annoying. The media go with this idea that it grows the game when the NRL have been on record saying they are there for the betting money, Vegas is the biggest gambling market in the world and they want in. First year or two, locals would be curious but now they have seen it and know if they like it or not and then leave it at that. It should have been a two year thing then move on.
If i was the NRL i would have put the 2027 WC in the USA.
Exactly. Get the fuck out of the way, pull their fingers out of the pie and let the product speak for itself
Any other teams playing the same Round 1 as last year or just Parra?
This is BS!!!
R1 on a Thursday is a bonus. Ensures a long turnaround to r2
