Can't beat this moment in Kobe's last game.

#KobeFarewell #KobeRIP ♥️

@CooperDavid6 All the top 4 from last year's comp(Raiders, Storm, Bulldogs and Broncos) all sit out of the top 8 . Other than the panthers it's a very tight comp .

@JamieWall2 No one doubts the All blacks . Will forever be an institution and ratings topper . It's the rest of the game under that , that ppl are concerned . And that's where the Warriors have taken hearts and minds of New Zealanders and turned that into crowds and viewership

Melbourne is on track to host the biggest crowd in the 46-year history of rugby league’s State of Origin with ticket sales pointing to more than 92,000 people filling the MCG for Game 2.

@footyindustryAU I love PVL. He's one hell of an administrator irrespective of the keyboard warriors . I know throws grenades to generate publicity sometimes , but hey he does it well .

@MikeMeehallWood End of the day revenue is important but being profitable is key . Out of 92 clubs in the football league only 14 were profitable. In the NRL , every club turned a profit .

Foxtel has launched a high-stakes bid to protect its decades-long relationship with the NRL, offering to buy the sport’s entire suite of free-to-air and streaming rights to counter, and cut out, media rival Nine Entertainment.

@footyindustryAU Super Rugby in disarray . I think I can count over 10 teams that have either been booted, went bust or decided to leave. Competition needs consistency in its structure .

@footyindustryAU That bloke is a flop . Everything he touches goes wrong

[OBBY @OBBY001]

Tele journo Dean Ritchie spent the past four days with the Perth Bears in Western Australia as he was given an insight into how the NRL's 18th team is building. Gotta say they’re talking up a big game!

They’ve sold 15,000 memberships & expected to rise to 30K by the start of next season. HBF Park only fits about 20,000 fans.

@KoroTeeps Please no more knee jerk expansion and retraction. More teams have left or been kicked out then there are teams left . 6 x SA teams / 1 Japanese team / 1 Argentinian team /rebels kicked out/Pacifica kicked out / Force kicked out then given a 2nd life . It's plain embarrassing

[Aaqib Abdul Ala @AAA_Squibby]

@aussiebeastmode @footyindustryAU my thoughts are with #JaiArrow after being diagnosed with MND- if the NRL introduces a round for MND, I think without a shadow of a doubt and no debatin- both afl n nrl introduce a round for MENTAL HEALTH.
