Super Rugby Women's Competition

@bones Read her tweet in the context of Alley's posts, not as a stand alone post.
And no, if I'd play at top level, I'd be paid, because that's in the collective agreement and I'd have signed a contract.
Anyway, I find Alley's posts way more interesting than that of a random poster on twitter. And I can understand that's it's hard for players like Alley.

Nah.

Cute answer, but not a reason to hate on men.

@bones I don't see it as hating on men.
It clearly is. A false statement that makes no sense. What other purpose does it serve?

I made the mistake of reading a sumo tweet and that was in replies. Gobsmacking ignorance and misandry.
Perhaps Nicola is ignorant to the history of the game. Perhaps she can explain where this bag of money will come from.
No doubt the next claim will be for pay parity. 🙄

Careful of hating on Nicola ... she might be reading this and about to cone and whoop yo ass ...

So now I have to read Chelsea Alley's post and form my own opinion.
Jeez that's like so much work ...

@booboo as long as she's not a prize winning author.
Edit: and to be clear, the original comment was more tongue and cheek, but hey, it does seem a bit out of touch, she needs to get that debate on here, not twitter.
Umm .. ahh .. err ...

If she does it’ll be just like the time that 1991 AB jumped on the fern to defend himself from internet tough guys.
Anyone got some popcorn ?

@bones said in Super Rugby Women's Competition:
@stargazer say what? "How many guys" etc etc. What do "guys" have to do with it? Not taking into account that the answer is fucking thousands would and thousands have.
It's a point of comparison. When trying to argue a position it gives you something to base your argument on.
No one disagrees that at a high level of the game male players should get payed. The question is why it is different for female players.
There are some potentially valid arguments around monetary inputs/outputs so focus on those instead of making accusations of man bashing.

I guess that makes the US cash injection from Silver Lake a done deal?

Or there is some chicken counting going on.

Not going to dox the user above, but holy shit I'm looking forward to her reply.
As for the topic, happy for women to paid for playing rugby. But considering it took men until 1995 to get paid after playing the best part of a century, making it a men vs woman argument is a bit inaccurate.
As everything is a product these days, perhaps it's best to seperate out the two products and pay the women out of the purse for TV rights for womens rugby and bums in seats? If it's popular then it will fund itself.
