Whoever designed this short animation film deserves a f**king REWARD was the best intro to any sporting organisation to this day... Everything was on point.
@@andosrailway2369 yeah that was what I was thinking with the sharks but do u reckon it should be mechanical like the roosters & bunnies or real like the rest?
They have to enforce the rules harder now because the players of todays game are a lot different than they were 10-20 years ago. They're a lot bigger, stronger, faster and therefore there is more risk of injury. This is also evidenced by the increasing prevalence of head injuries and concussions in todays game.
Love it, love the broncos vs cowboys, dragon vs knight and tiger vs panthers and roosters vs bunnies. get a knew one going next year with the dolphins chucked in.
This was the best intro I remember when me and my dad were watching footy and then I thought that they were like actual beast fighting but they just turned into little people
2013…wholly Fck..where did time go…I remember this liken it was yesterday…still the dopest intro…to the weekend footy…who the Fck made this intro…the best by a long shot…no other Friday night footy intro comes close
The commentary The brutal origin clashes The biff The players Everything was just so good back in the days, NRL nowadays is just so lacklustre 😢 I want to be young again
Here is me, an American guessing what each team mascot is with absolutely no idea what this league is Hawks Vikings Lightning Tigers vs Panthers Dogs vs Dolphins Idk, Islanders maybe? Eagles vs Sharks Broncos vs Cowboys Warriors I have literally no idea vs Hornets? Dragons vs I guess Knights? Did I get any right? Some are obvious, but I have no idea what that blue robot looking thing is
Close, Got most of them correct or close. (In Order Of Video) Honestly think that's just a bird, not the team Sea Eagles. though might be completely wrong. Canberra Raiders Melbourne Storm West Tigers/Penrith Panthers Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs/Parramatta Eels New Zealand Warriors Manly Sea Eagles/Cronulla Sharks Brisbane Broncos/North Queensland Cowboys Gold Coast Titans Sydney Roosters/South Sydney Rabbitohs Newcastle Knights/St. George Illawarra Dragons.s
@@RyseZen So the blue thing is a rooster, and the robot insect looking thing is a rabbit? Whoever created this did a great job making two fairly harmless critters look as intimidating as sharks and tigers. I'll have to check this sport out! All I know is that it's similar to our football but the rules are different. I can see some teams share NFL team names too
Wish they didn't change it every year this was the best one. Dunno how they'd animate a dolphin to be serious looking if it was done for next year in this style 😂
i know it wasn't that long ago but when you compare the game from then to now, it's night and day, miss the old days man :/ peter vlandys has gone a long way to fuck this game up
@@brockbartlett666 Rugby means rugby union, it was made first and has always been referred to as rugby. That's why you'll never hear an NRL commentator refer to rugby league as rugby.

Imagine if they did this next year, what would the dolphin look like?
@@stelpanagakos2520 re work it and have the dolphins vs sharks?
@@andosrailway2369 yeah that was what I was thinking with the sharks but do u reckon it should be mechanical like the roosters & bunnies or real like the rest?
I remember as a little kid I thought it was the coolest intro
Need to bring it back
@J G I think afl will be 1
@J G i dont remember anyone asking
@@eh3796 it's just a bot, ignore them
@J G Shuddup and stick to your sport....dont dare to intefere with rugby fans.
The best Intro ever
Dam straight it was, that’s some great 3d graphic designs.
Its like fifa the introduction gets worse every year🤣😂
True they should've kept it💯 Go Storm ❤️🤘
The dragon's and Knights at the end was awesome 💯
@J G no one asked geek
Fucking bring this back. This is madness
F**k yeah
Madness? THIS IS NRL!!!
These were the prime days of the NRL when proper big hits were still legal

@@JackH2254 very well said, the game getting way to fast and risks more injuries so it's probably for the better
Um no little boy shoulder charge banned in 2012 but its ok u probs weren’t even born yet
@@mariobalotelli5682 I’m only 3 years old
This intro still one off the best ever. I really got you hyped even if it was 15th vs 16th
Damn right Bossk
@@datjuicypickle954 haha, love it
Except when Parra was playing 😂
this was a memory i didn’t even know i had. best intro ever
This intro is cool they should do a reboot of it
Love it, love the broncos vs cowboys, dragon vs knight and tiger vs panthers and roosters vs bunnies. get a knew one going next year with the dolphins chucked in.
Dolphins?
@@theicecreamman_2443 the new team coming into the league next year from Redcliffe.
eels vs bulldogs
Would be hard to make a Dolphin Look tough.
But yes this intro is Gold.
@@martyholding8148 they made a rabbit and a rooster look tough and they aren't nearly as cool as dolphins are
I got tears watching this
🥺
SOY BOY ALERT
Fox will never be this creative sadly. Best intro ever!!
This was so badass they need to bring this back
Are you f**king kidding me? This brings back memories hard. Have no idea why got rid of it. Epic
lol they knew that it wouldn't work if they just put a normal rabbit in
This was by far better than anything the NFL could ever put out in their intros
Isa...nostalgia when watching this...now I'm 19 and I wish it comes back.
I don’t even watch the NRL and I still come back to this. Literally the equivalent of what we had in the AFL with the Holy Grail channel 10 openers.
Need to bring this back, it's awesome
Bring this back ya dogs
NRL 2013 is the best
Greatest intro to hit out screens
When NRL was actually good 🔥
I like how a rooster and rabbit are too non-threatening so they made them damn robots!

@@brockbartlett666 No need to act like that wasn't having a go at you, just a correction because they are not the "same shit"
@@jacobc590 what is the difference rugby vs rugby league? Also is nrl different? my lord thats why I’ve always called it rugby
@@brockbartlett666 Rugby means rugby union, it was made first and has always been referred to as rugby. That's why you'll never hear an NRL commentator refer to rugby league as rugby.
Simply nostalgic🤧🤧🤧
