Super League just ended up being the boring League. The ARL comp was so much better and the players played with passion and interest every single week. The Grand Finals were miles apart from eachother too.

The Super League was an attempt to get rugby league behind the Barassi Line. There was no money and too many useless teams. The only team that exists to day behind this line is the Storm.

I remember that people thought Super League wouldn’t go ahead at all after this judgement in early 1996. However in October SL won on appeal and it went ahead in 1997. I didn’t like the split in the game and I’m glad there was only 1 year with 2 comps but from a Penrith fan point of view, we arguably owe our current stand alone status to choosing Super League over the ARL. We weren’t going that well back in the late 90’s compared to now on and off the field and if we had stayed with the ARL we may well have been merged..

@clevelandwilliams5922 2 жыл бұрын

I have a simple answer it’s called Western Suburbs Magpies. 1908 foundation club has automatic immunity as this club created the game. In addition if they have an issue all boundaries revert to pre 1947. That means Manly Warringah Sea Eagles revert to their original feeder club to North Sydney Bears. Parramatta Eels & Penrith Panthers revert as Feeder clubs to Western Suburbs Magpies. Cronulla Sutherland Sharks revert to Feeder club to St George Dragons. The teams outside of Sydney like Illawarra Steelers, Canberra Raiders & Newcastle Knights remain. The Glebe Reds than revert to Country Reds.

The real verdict was the appeal. I remember seeing it and the court ruling was in Superleague's favor. I think it may have been Ken Arthurson said that Superleague may have won this round but the ARL had an appeal. But Graham Richardson commentating for Nine said the opposite. That the judgement in Superleague's favor was likely going to be the final verdict. Richardson also said a contract meant nothing in the modern days after the verdict. Arthurson would later describe the appeal in Superleague's favor as winning the first half of Football 100 - 0. And then other team coming back and scoring 100 - 0 in the secound half.

Same thing going on today with streaming wars. Its all about content to gain subscribers. Almost no one on the super league side cared about the game at all and to many on the ARL side were also greedy. Players did deserve more and the game was worth more than what it was getting. So many showed how their loyalty was always for sale it was just how much. Took the game a good 8 to 12 years to get back to anywhere near how popular it was in the 93 94 95 seasons. Even me a kid who played and went to every game at brookie for 3 years stopped going and even paying attention till 2003. The teams that the nswrl let in immediately went to SL the western red the warriors the cowboys. Should have just gone back to nswrl and played our comp again

This war really did hurt the game. What was interesting was that super had the stronger teams superior players overall but ARL probably had the better quality competition in the end. I also look back and think that it was a pity that super league didn't go that next step because super league had a vision for the game that ARL never had.

Rugby League going global via Super League was nothing more than a pipe dream. A lot of foolish people got swept up in this hysteria back in the mid 90's. Rugby League can barley sustain a national Australian audience, let alone a global one.

They should have left the Super League to England. Had that have happened then some of these clubs would have still been around. Even if it still meant that some did a merger with one another. You still may have seen North Sydney Bears and South Queensland Crushers competing in the NRL and have prevented South Sydney Rabbitohs from missing out on a season or two of rugby league.

@marcus86tiger 6 ай бұрын

Pretty much. He was hell bent on getting pay tv up and running and felt he needed a major sport to help get people into it. He tried for afl and quickly found it wasn’t going to happen. Unfortunately there were players that were only interested in the money and not the game itself and it nearly destroyed the game. Rupert Murdock did not understand anything about the game and actually believed that throwing money at people will fix everything. Super league is a scar that the game has never fully recovered from. Real fans of the game don’t acknowledge the 1997 super league comp as a real competition.

@clevelandwilliams5922 2 жыл бұрын

The problem with Rugby League clubs, supporters & players they’d been interested in self preservation and not about unity of the game. If that sought of rubbish was going on in AFL, you’d see all clubs band together in unity & diversity. Murdoch knew how fragmented the culture was and that’s what he did what he did with Super League but not with ARL.
