Can I ask, how were the teams that are going to Vagas picked? Because if this sport takes off, I'm sure people will devote their time & money out of the clubs that are playing. Who going to know everyone hates Manly?
In terms of supporter base we are the most followed Sydney club out of the nine, we overtook South Sydney in memberships 1-2 year ago. If we were asked and declined then fair enough but if we weren't even considered that would make no sense. You want your biggest clubs/most supported clubs going if you are trying to promote a sport.

I reckon you want the teams with the flashiest players. Tackle breakers. The Roosters and Broncos were both top six last year. Rabbits and Sea Eagles weren't real good, but they were better than us. The only team to break fewer tackles (per game) than Parra last year was Canterbury.

imagine gutho doing an ACL during that utter rubbish tour 🤷♀️
"I did modern day as 1998 onwards as I didn't see them play, as some here haven't. Where I believe majority of people here have seen all the modern day players play.
Plus it frees up some spots like we all know who 5/8 will be but now no idea."
"Old vs New. Pre 1998 Eels best team wearing the original Gold Jerseys vs post 1998 Eels best team wearing today's Blue jersey. The best from both eras playing against each other in a virtual stadium online. Jack Gibson coaching Gold, Brian Smith…"
"He played 134 of his 264 games as a winger. Didnt complain once like a Lomax when required on the wing. Was a team man through and through. He deserves to be in the Modern Day Best Eels team somewhere. Perhaps now that we have 6 interchange players…"
" I understand the modern day theory. It has to be the players that would work in the modern day game, But the theory should include how a player from the say 80s would perform given the modern day technology and training regime.
You cant simply…"

I tend to skip the trials it often either gives me false hope or I'm ready to write the season off straight away
