I HAVE been entertained, for want of a better term, by the back and forth letters regarding the World Cup, specifically the argument that soccer is a 'better' game because it's played all over the world by many nations. As a rugby league fan, my response would be: so what?
Like other fans, I don't care that my chosen sport is only played on the east coast in Australia, and by only a handful of nations overseas. I appreciate the fact that we can get to watch, on a weekly basis, right here, the world's best, even if that world is not as big as soccer's. We Knights fans even got to regularly watch one of the greatest ever.
