Social team posting a few videos of fighters reacting to the Russell Crowe ad.

There was something a few weeks ago that said NRL & UFC have agreed to some sort of social media partnership where NRL players and UFC players are open for interview to each other and content is being shared between the two companies.
Don't think there was much hype about it online at the time but I think it's a pretty big deal that NRL is working with a company as world wide as the UFC.

I imagine NRL sees that there is a lot of crossover between the fan bases and will get new American eyes on our product but not sure what the UFC would get out of it.

I'd say Volk is a big influence as well.
UFC love's his whole "semi-pro" footy background.

You can even play as footy volk in the latest UFC game haha.

Cool
So it's an exhibition game, not a legitimate match.

My next door neighbor and me can agree to a duel, I do not have to worry about being charged, when I shoot him since him and I agreed to the rules.

Pretty sure the rule is no more than 100m by 70m.
So by that definition it's completely legal.

But if you want your test your dueling theory be my quest.

Yeah I think the field size isn't a locked in number. Storm's old home was skinnier & had tiny ingoals.

Cricket gets by with all sorts of field sizes.

It's only a few meters & it's the same conditions for both sides so isn't an issue IMO

Yeah I'm pretty sure they measure try-line to try-line for this reason. Alot of grounds in England especially tend to be a bit shorter.
