this concept would help the english team :wink:






winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

when you were sending out people to australia, did they pick all the really athletic ones to make the voyage over.

it would explain a lot.

You guys havent looked at this objectively at all. I threw a few simple logistical questions that would come up at the concept stage of any new venture for a sports promoter, Dally came back with a few random examples that used totally different ventures with different objectives to your origin in england concept.

It will acheive nothing
No one would underwrite it
It would devalue the Origin concept and brands

You're just throwing half cocked examples of similar ventures about, saying look this worked. Fair enough you've had an idea, its not viable, it won't eventuate, time to move on.


you missed the point of my post.

heres a quote from wally lewis book on origin :

"at half time the yanks were invited to give feedback and the articulate yanks did not dissappoint - "non stop, fast, rough, aggressive, they knock the hell out of each other, wear no protection, no helmets, theyre real men, its great".

if you want to promote RL in new markets, the best way to do it is with the best product.

its worked in melbourne to help the storm, a market similar to london in terms of loyalties to a rival sport.

because of origin the storms crowds grew by around 50% after they got a game and awareness of RL in the city increased hugely.

and as ive said before someone like russel crowe could be used to market it.

hes is world famous, indeed hes in england now shooting the movie robin hood.

would the game do well with crowe backing it? course it would.

take off the blinkers boys

Hopefully someone subbed that before it was actually published in a book, and corrected the spelling and employed some punctuation.

Of course you might just have been unable to copy something out of a book correctly.

Perhaps your teacher can help you with that – some extra homework, maybe.

Having said that, your use of language appears somewhat better than fredie's – just a pity your ability to put forward a coherent argument or comprehend a debate is at the same level as his.

Brilliant! You won't need to be posting your barely literate drivel here any more, then.
