Sorry lost my passion for league during the Super League era still keep a loose eye on it but not with any great passion might watch a bit of the State of Origin Games and maybe the GF , its basically only popular in the eastern states and and I wouldnt regard it as the number one game in either state QLD or NSW crowd numbers continue to fall and each year the game takes a hit of negative publicity in some shape or form, I am in no way a want to be Mexican but AFL has it all over the NRL just seem streets ahead more professional better run etc, though neither code can boast a true world cup or internationals , at best league could hold a strong tri-nations with the Poms and the Kiwis but anybody else is just filling in the numbers, I take an interest in most sports but would much prefer to watch the cricket or soccer English or A-League and as the recent Asian Cup showed there is plenty of interest and not just in the Socceroos and again with the cricket Melbourne got I think 80,000 people to a non Aussie fixture trying doing that with a league game.
