THE AUSTRALIAN RUGBY LEAGUE SUPPORTERS ASSOCIATION (ARLSA)


The Australian Rugby League Supporters Association (ARLSA) would be independent and democratic. The ARLSA would operate as a membership-based organisation representing supporters of rugby league across Australia.

The association is still in its infancy. We are currently gauging interest.

For more info: Email Darren at mr*************@************ne.com


THE ARLSA NOW HAS A FACEBOOK PAGE

You will now be able to find the ARLSA on social media on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/australianrugbyleaguesupporters/.

Check it out for all of your ARLSA information and social media posts.


As we get ready to formalise the ARLSA and looking to recruit members, we ask that you take some time out to complete the survey below. This will assist with the understanding of the issues that Australian rugby league fans are facing both at professional and grassroots level.

The Adelaide Wants Their Team Back Working Group is off to a rocky start with no-one RSVPs been received.
Organisers are looking at cancelling the event and one of the main people who has been pushing for a formalised committee and is passionate South Australian rugby league fan, has said if numbers do not rise and the event is cancelled, he would step down.
this would be a major blow for the fight and campaign in South Australian it just shows that the South Australian rugby league supporters would rather sit in front of their screens and say they want a team, but when it comes down to actually putting boots on the ground it is all too hard or no one is really that serious about campaigning for a team back in Adelaide.
Without people like Darren, Adelaide will probably never see a full-time NRL team based in Adelaide.
So, when so called Adelaide rugby league fans put up a post saying Adelaide should have an NRL team then they will only have themselves to blame.
As a Supporters Association we should be supporting them in their effort to lobby for a team. We can’t support the fans if they won’t make the effort to start the conversation.
