Does anyone else think that turning the whole round into an "Anzac Day" round a bit of an overreach?
Before anyone fires up please know I am not trying to offend or stir any trouble. I just want to know what other people think.
Please know that I am actually a returned Servicemen myself and have been going to the Anzac Marches since before I can walk so it is obviously something very special to me. My Grandfather served in WW1 and died later in life from injuries resulting from his service.
So on that, I accept and agree with the matches on Anzac Day being represented to the full and actually think the NRL should move heaven and earth to find a way to have an Aus v NZ game instead of a few who cares club teams that only a minority of the sport even follow. If they had a test match I think it would rival Origin.
Either way should the NRL just do it on the 25th and the 25th only or is it okay for them to be extending it out all week?
