the nrl has moved away from having fans and more toward customers. Whats the difference you may ask. Well fans are pesky buggers. They know the rules, understand the game, have no tolerance for interpretation but most of all they are vested for the long haul. They have memories , expectations to be treated fairly and consistently. All of this is direct opposition to what the NRL is trying to achieve
The customer on the other hand are about the event. The drinks, the night out and not much more. They care about the result fleetingly but are in it to be seen rather than to be part of a community. They are blind or oblivious to the every day runnings and manipulations that is the National Rugby League. They care not for the rules, the subtle nuiances of the sport , just the event. If you are this type of customer, the Nrl wants you, you are the demographic that is in demand by our code. Apply within
This has been a long time coming. It hasnt happened overnight. The most ardent fan will struggle with the rules as they have been bent, shaped, changed so many times for the good of the spectacle apparently, but all it does is add confusion to influenec outcomes, and to justify variances to multiple to name. Its classic political smokescrren at its best.
So for the fans please renew your foxtel subscription, watch the big games on 9 and leave the running of the event circus to the professionals. They dont want your help, your passion, but most of all they dont need your scrutiny. Its annoying, and makes running a profitable contrived event difficult , because of your knowledge , expectations and your dedication
In other news the nrl is taking texts at $1 per text to help settle this years origin series. Mom nominations will open shortly. Please ensure you vote from one of the 3 multiple choice results approved by the networks and remember gamble responsibly because There is never a sure thing, or is there
If 1 million nsw viewers switched off for game 3 , nsw will win the 2018 series 3 nil. Just a hunch.
