    London Broncos are like the Gold Coast of the NRL. Multiple name changes, multiple jersey designs, home grounds, but they can never get it right.

    Tremendously informative and entertaining show.
    The increased production values are adding to the enjoyment and result in a programme that wouldn't be out of place on broadcast television.
    Sky Sports / BBC, sign them up!

      Will the game be on RUclips?
      If so, which channel?

    Great pod. Do you have plans to go onto Spotify? Would be good to listen while I drive

    • @rugbyleagueoutsiders
      @rugbyleagueoutsiders  4 дня назад

      Hey thanks for watching. We used to be on Spotify but with such a small team (Just the two of us) we decided to cut down on admin duties and just stick to RUclips. Maybe in the future but for now we will remain here.

    Got Ian Smith book to read. Sounds really good. Also Got “tough season” book. Chris Berry KR fan. If you want to read a really good book try Stanley Gene. How he lived in jungle of PNG. Got picked up by Police to play RL on a field at the airport. How he got to Hull and coped with culture shock.

      Thanks, The Stanley Gene book sounds great. I will have a look out for that. 👍 #RugbyleagueBookClub

    Imagine if in 10 years London as a club owned by Brisbane were doing so well financially and bringing in crowds by targeting the Aussie population in London that they put a bid in to join NRL? …. Maybe this is actually the start of an NRL takeover? … maybe other NRL clubs will do the same and buy other UK clubs - why not have a world NRL and UK have a NRL conference where the top 2 clubs or top 4 join the NRL for an expanded Play - Off competition? … could be something to aim for

    • @rugbyleagueoutsiders

      Unfortunately the news reported was incorrect. Brisbane has distanced themselves from to rumours. However there is without doubt interest from Australia.

    • @rjworldsportsnews
      @rjworldsportsnews 2 дня назад +1

      @ ah that’s gutting - I was excited by this- however, it’s great news anyway that a consortium from Australia are buying them hopefully and they really need to target the Aussie population in London who love rugby league and there’s a real appetite for sport and sporting events in London… we need to target the London population for the Challenge Cup final and get more neutrals we are not making enough wave in London - don’t get how the RFL and IMG can’t market the game right it’s sad

    Television rights are by far the biggest revenue stream for the NRL and subsequently all Clubs. Gambling revenue only a small percentage in comparison. Not a lot of Sniper’s points re the NRL possible involvement made sense.

    • @thesnipersclubnrl
      @thesnipersclubnrl 5 дней назад +1

      There's only so much we can cover in a short episode. Of course that's true for the NRL. Sadly in England, the television rights deals are sooooo low that a potential issue for Salford would almost certainly mean tv deals being renegotiated to even smaller amounts for all the other clubs, so there would be a domino effect. Non fulfilment of the deal's t&c's because we've now lost 6 Salford games that were planned to be televised...bla bla.

    Great episode guys. Following Williams weekly from last week, Do you think the Challenge Cup should have a format like the women's competition with groups, quarter finals, semi final and then a final? Keep it to the teams in the Super League & championship. You could then keep the 1895 cup but change the teams who enter it to League 1 and amateur clubs maybe include university clubs and super league reserve teams if needed.

    • @rugbyleagueoutsiders
      @rugbyleagueoutsiders  3 дня назад

      This is such a great comment and one we have just been discussing. We had never thought about having amateur sides in the 1895 cup. The problem with that is that amateur players want to feel special by taking part in the prestigious Challenge Cup.

    Cut off from the M62? Down where they are, they're cut off from most of London. It's a hell of a difficult place to get to from where I live, especially on a Sunday and takes at least an hour and a half, maybe more. Every game an away game for most Londoners. When they were playing at Ealing, it was a lousy ground, but it was at least accessible from most of London. They should just be called "Wimbledon".

    It would be a great time to take the London Broncos. Whoever takes control would be able to start afresh with the club having no debt

    I guarantee you. If the rumor is true about brisbane buying a stake in London, you will gain fans from Australia and the Pacific.

    • @rugbyleagueoutsiders
      @rugbyleagueoutsiders  5 дней назад +2

      It could be huge and a catalyst for future investment in other clubs.

    • @thesnipersclubnrl

      Fingers crossed this deal is done quickly and in the right way.

      ​@@thesnipersclubnrlI understand your concern with NRL. I think it'll be better if the NRL sends Affiliated states teams to take part in the challenge cup like Victoria and WA. In that way they'd get exposure in AFL Territory. As for super league I'd like the university RL to have a comp that feeds into the SL, Championship and L1 like the yanks and their collegate system.

      Won’t do anything. Any big league fans in Australia will already watch super league and they won’t bother to watch championship even if London are there and owned by Brisbane. Maybe a few extra shirt sales the first year but the hype will drop quickly after. London need to focus on winning fans within London and the surrounding counties. Will be difficult as you’re in rugby union heartland there, and harlequins are doing absolutely brilliantly in the fan engagement around south London
