Wouldn't be surprised if it was one Barr's brands, given their previous association with RL. The only obviously 'fruity' brand of theirs I can think of is Rubicon, but don't know how much of a fit that is.
Always been a sucker for the Mango flavoured Rubicon, though I've steered clear of it for a while since it is pretty much sugar + water + fruit concentrate. Mostly sugar!

Cider. Maybe having a team in Championship One from Cider country (ish) swayed it

Not heard of it, but I don't buy cider all that often. I'll definitely check it out now, though.

Astute analysis from a Wigan fan:
Rumour going around Headingley that Wire will have to play the second half with 12 men.
It seems that they forgot to bring the half time oranges, and Solomona ate Chris Bridge instead.
Don't know why he was hungry, as he looked as though he had eaten the whole youth team before the game started.

Nice logo.
Never tried it, I drink Weston's mainly, but I'll give it a go! Great sponsor.

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

According to their website, their cider is available on sale at Twickers. Wonder if they'll be doing any Rugby League-branded labels, and how well that'd go down at RU HQ.

They're responsible for Stowford Press, I believe, which is delicious.
