What can Australian Rugby do to break into the Bogan market? Is it possible?

Not being derogatory towards ordinary Australians might be a good place to start.

 

[Bullrush]

Salient point...

I much preferred Super Rugby when the Kiwis fielded more than one competitive team.

Unlike the Brumbies, NZ does have teams the fans believe can win.

Belief is what you have before you know the result. I know you find this shit tricky.

Not all Bogans are bad people, there are good and bad ones. You're the one who's implying that all of them are bad.

Really?

The Roar only had the Chiefs pegged for 4th place.

Unlike the Crusaders, NZ doesn't have any teams the fans believe can win.

Nope you're wrong

Bogan (/ˈboʊɡən/ BOHG-ən[1]) is Australian and New Zealand slang for a person whose speech, clothing, attitude and behaviour are considered unrefined or unsophisticated. Depending on the context, the term can be pejorative or self-deprecating.[2

I’m sorry the expectations on your team are low but the first step to getting help is admitting there is a problem.

Brumbies fans are pleasantly surprised with a win against any NZ team.

Do you live in Auckland? Wellington? Hamilton? And that’s how you know what their fans believe?

Take it up with the dictionary mate, certainly not my work.

Take it up with Wikipedia, im just trying to help the game grow.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Oh dear…..you don’t know the difference between expectations and results.

Fans did not have expectations of the Brumbies winning it and all you’re doing by leaning on the final result, is prove the fans were right.

I daresay the proportion of fans of the Blues, Hurricanes, Chiefs and Highlanders who expected the Crusaders to win this year would have been close to the proportion of Aussie rugby fans expectations.

By being, to use your own definition, pejorative? Good luck with that.

I certainly was believing for the Blues and my Waikato family thought the Chiefs would win.

Fucking slow news week in here...

Slow enough for the same posts to be repeated a few times over

What will be your idea to grow the game within the Bogan population?
