LMAO forgot about this.  Fuck they're excited

I wonder what's stated in their contract. Obligations to do such things. Embarrassing. Same with England and the many campaigns they have. Is there some contractual obligation?

Of course it is just the league trying to follow on from CCM's superhero rounds.

Good idea for families might bring a bit of much needed revenue to the league. Older football fans are too precious sometimes.

Was wondering how I was going to get to the Gold Coast for our home/away game. One decision I no longer have to make.

Apparently I am hearing Emperor Lowy and Darth Gallop have found a way to influence the mido-clorians to prevent the A-League from dying.

And how well is Rugby League going with attendances? 

Tbh normally I wouldn't be too bothered by this stuff, however considering the timing and the fact that the game has so many important issues to resolve, throwing this out there as some genius marketing idea is just embarrassing. Perhaps if it were included at a time when everything was rosy ie at the start of 2015, then it wouldn't be such a bad thing, but this gimmick will have surely cost the ffa money and imo it could have waited or been better spent. Perhaps spending money on building up the personalities "stars" of our game would actually help kids feel connected with clubs.

Had this exact conversation with some work mates yesterday.

Interest in NRL is dwindling year on year because of token rounds every second week.

Top that off with the VAR system and playing in large empty stadiums and it creates a very similar problem to what the A League has right.

No co-incidence that Gallop helped introduce many of those problems when he was in charge of the NRL.

Apparantly the Rebel Alliance have spotted a flaw in the Emporer Lowys monstrosity

Emperor, not Emporer. I remember a Sydney Uni History lecturer blasting me rather humiliatingly in front of a fair size lecture crowd after I submitted an essay on the Byzantine empire around the time of Justinian. Cost me a distinction. Lucky bloody millennials with spell check. Buggers have got it so easy.

Its not just the money hungry commercially driven metrics based crap that we see time and time again that infuriates me

Its that trying to cash in on Star wars is small change compared to the substantial money lost by having 3 of the 5 biggest clubs suffering as a result of the current system. And truckloads of cash turned away from CFG in the name of fairness. Not to mentioned what was lost by storming away from SBS and going to channel 10

Ruining our game for money is one thing. Ruining our game to be no better off (and in many instances worse off) is sabotage
