Sport England participation survey 2023-24

All makes very interesting reading - but most importantly glad to see you back(?)! -
2025 Attendance Thread
hunsletgreenandgold replied to Damien's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Here's where I feel like i'm being unnecessarily negative - let me just say from the outset that's not my aim. The reality of ALL clubs is their attendance will increase when they're performing better on the field. We're seeing it this year with Wakey and over the past couple of seasons with KR and Leigh - before that you can point to Cas as another example. The opposite is also true - Leeds' baron years saw their attendance drop (not including stadium rebuild years) by about 12% and similar patterns for other clubs who in general average higher but see reasonably high percentage drop offs in seasons when it's not going so good. What should really be the test of if any of this grows a club's fanbase is mapping on field performance and how that correlates with attendance. You can then forecast what averages might be in an average on field season as well. -
The absolute cheek of the man - one of the most dross SL signings in recent history. I hear he's tearing it up for the Bulls - glad he's found his level.

2026 Transfer Tracker

A 5 year deal at 33?! Clearly no ambition to be in SL then. -
Brits in the NRL

All of that is true and I widely agree. The flip-side however is that Souths are absolute terrible this season, so if you've got a half at your club earning decent money why wouldn't you throw him in a bit more? There's no decent halves combination - the hype around Humphries was short lived and to be honest I don't see him as a long term option for them. -
Ashes Squad Predictions

If picked, you'd be looking at Isaah Yeo and Cam Munster being the oldest at 31. -
Obituary Thread
hunsletgreenandgold replied to Bedford Roughyed's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other Sports
I know the detail - I'm suggesting that drawing conclusions about the car that was being driven and potentially how it was being driven is premature. Whether it was a Lambourghini or Fiesta, a tyre blowout could've caused the same. And seems insensitive to pose 'what is it about PL footballers' like this was some huge risk he was taking - we know nothing beyond what is in the public domain, all of which points to this being a tragic accident rather than anything reckless. -

This seems very premature and not really relevant. Until we hear anything to the contrary this sounds like a tragic accident that nobody could've foreseen. -
Ah that would make more sense

Where on earth have you got that idea from? He won't be there past this season most likely.

‘What in the RFL was that?’
hunsletgreenandgold replied to Northern Eel's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
1. The number of tries Salford will score against Warrington not above 2. The number of goals Chris Atkin will score against Huddersfield (conversions, penalties and drop goals) above 3. Leigh's SL points difference for the season following their match against Wigan not above 4. The number of teams based outside Yorkshire winning their game in the Championship this week not above 5. Number of home wins in League 1 this week not above Tie-breaker - How many tries will be scored in total across Super League, Championship and League 1 this week? 128 -
Brits in the NRL

He was named to start against Storm in Round 16 but fully booted from the whole squad once origin players backed up. Not even like for like either - they did some crazy reshuffle of Koloamatangi to backrow then Aitken who was in the backrow then moved to centre, which meant they could put Wighton at 6. Literally anything to stop them needing to play Dodd. Overall I hope if the rumours are true and they're going to agree to a mutual termination, hopefully there's a gig for him back in SL where he can rebuild his confidence which is no doubt shattered by all this. -
SL clubs look to reinstate Nigel Wood.
hunsletgreenandgold replied to The 4 of Us's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
I think Wood coming back into the fold is massive ###### off to the NRL. A shame, because regardless of if you was for or against the idea, nobody asked for this. -

Actually insane how far down the pecking order he's fallen. He's only made the 17 this week because Latrell isn't in the squad. -

I'm hoping that some (in)formal conversations have been had with potential future broadcast/streaming partners (including Sky) suggesting this approach would be appealing to them - otherwise this really is pie in the sky (pun intended) thinking.
