Zombies are trending big time in the Internet-verse.....
The NRL today announced that the NRL is to be renamed the "Zombie Rugby League". The way it works.....players from all clubs are allowed to sign contracts with opposing clubs a year in advance of them joining their new club.
These players (known to their current team's supporters as the "walking dead") will be allowed to wear a football jumper that comprises half that player's current team's colours and half the team's colours of the team that the player is going to join in the next year or so.
The NRL believes this is a win win as it means that not only will the current club support the player but supporters from the player's future club will come to watch them play as well, thereby increasing attendance at games.
Is this the future?
