There is a trial to be played this week between Parramatta and Melbourne in Griffith and I just thought you guys might be interested to hear where the majority of the profits from the game are going to....Aussie Rules and netball!
Group 20 was unable to afford to put on the game (or atleast that's what they claim) and it was organised through the Griffith Ex-Servicemens Club in conjunction with the Griffith Swans Aussie Rules Club with the game set to benefit a number of sports.
Due to a bitch fight the rugby league was allowed to run some BBQs etc. to raise funds but their input is very minimal.
Either way it is good that league is being brought out to the bush and you can't blame the Exies for taking advantage but I think it is extremely funny (not a good 'funny') that the game will be benefiting mostly other sports, the main one being Aussie Rules...says a bit about the state of league out here- plenty want to watch it but it's still being run into the ground.
