I'd love to see a bit of variety come back for the Cup based on whether we hold an international in London that year. Home international series, hold a game in London, CCF in Cardiff/Murrayfield/other 60k+ stadium outside London. Away international series, CCF at Wembley. Create demand.

I've a few like that (including myself) that are waiting until everyone that's wanting to go knows whether they can go or not without moving other commitments. I think 2 games at Wembley in a year (CCF and international) might dilute the appeal of the ground slightly. I'd have loved to have visited Tottenham.

Like you say, we just can't hold the ball. It's not necessarily that we have a poor attack without those players playing, it's that we don't know his good the attack is because we never have the opportunity to do it as we keep dropping the ball! Fix that and we'll start winning games.

There are no winners of a best mullet competition. Only losers.

Not sure how many fans are going to be able to travel to the other side of the world in such short notice. It's hard enough selling tickets for Wembley with 4 weeks notice!

Making the game more available and attractive to young athletes and they identifying them and putting them on a development pathway in a quality environment is what will increase quality in the long run. There just seems to be this blanket idea that "more is good". I mean, it's not "bad" per se, but if they're all rubbish or have little promise, it doesn't increase quality.

And again, this falls into the myth that more players = better quality. The correct pathways, identification and quality competition is vital.

Looks like I'm in the minority, but I think this is a good move temporarily. The quality of the league is decreasing. We struggle to field a league with 10 competitive teams, let alone 12. With NRL increasing, they are going to hoover up even more of our top English players, thus reducing the quality further with not as many quality English players coming through to replace them. There seems to be this myth that having our youngsters play more games is all we need to do to improve them. There is so much more to it than that. The quality of the environment they're playing in is massively important. They will not improve much if they're playing in a substandard competition alongside other low-level players. They need to be in higher quality environments with bigger competition for places. People are arguing on one hand that we'll only get low quality players coming over, and on the other hand saying they'll take the places of our talent. Well if our talent can't displace low quality imports, that says a lot about the quality of our pathways. If we have talent, they'll push out untalented players. This is without even considering the fact that we may be expanding to 14 teams soon and need even more players.

You have no right!

Had Elon built X Stadium on Mars yet?

I'll have to give that a look for research purposes...

Think that's the LLS wrapped up now. Unless Leeds can spring a shock.

Some tremendous scramble by Salford defence. I feel for them. Deserve more from this game.

Clear knock on. I've never seen "he's holding on to his shirt still" as an excuse for being allowed to knock on at the PTB.
