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.

I'm glad we are not going
imagine gutho doing an ACL during that utter rubbish tour 🤷♀️
"Our errors and when we made them was the reason we lost. When you have a ref that loves a set restart (some random for both sides) you are always going to fatigue when you hand over possession so easily."
"This is true . We are also light on a couple of quality forwards but the game has changed. Quality outside backs are worth their weight in gold . Not only can they break a game open they're also asked to solve problems in defence , scramble to save…"
"
I agree, our outside backs are sub par. However, outside backs are only 1 piece of what the Eels need to become a contender. Throughout the 40 plus years I've followed Rugby League I have never thought or heard that a side has won a premiership…"

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