  1. Yes, Eccles was referring to the Nigel Wood review. With a bit of luck, Hetherington supporting Nigel’s comeback as a sort of quid pro quo. Either that or the SL clubs said “yeah, we want London, but only if Gary runs them.”
  2. I feel like this sentiment was shared leading into the WC. A certain fellow from a certain North East club became involved in the ticketing, and doesn’t seem to have faced much accountability following those terrible sales. If we simply wait and see, where’s the accountability to follow? It just gets swept under the rug by the RFL.
  3. How does buying the asset convert an unsecured loan to a secured loan? The loan would still exist and it would still not be tied to an asset bulls own.
  4. How many attended? Who was there from broncos? Hetherington, Loubser, Eccles?
  5. As far as I’m aware, Hughes wasn’t simply trading on the futures market. He was an oil trader who worked for a Vitol, a global corporation that negotiated deals with some of the most hostile and unstable countries — Libya, Iran etc.
  6. Your examples are of fans traveling to a destination, rather than interested observers or local RL fans heading to their local ground to watch two out of town teams. And that comes back to Martin’s point about declining profile.
  7. Mascord makes his point, which has some evidence to support. He’s not trying to be intelligent, he’s more a contrarian than anything. The NRL takes games to Mudgee, Dubbo, Tamworth, Coffs Harbour, Perth, Darwin, Cairns, Bundaberg, and these games sell out — albeit the grounds are smaller than the NRL club’s usual home ground. How many SL clubs could manage this at this point in time? Regarding London, and SL more broadly. The last 30 years (and beyond) can be summed up as missed opportunities. I can only point my finger at the personnel working at the governing body, and those in club land.
  8. EggChasers who now are majority owners of NW Crusaders
  9. Now the french season has finished can we expect any more players? Goudemond? Gigot? Escare?
  10. Tom Amone couldn’t crack it even though he was signed by Gus as “the best prop in SL” Just let the lad play and enjoy his time and see where life takes him.
  11. Can someone explain the tequila reference?
  12. Would this realignment help with their IMG score? Unless they up their crowds and finances, I struggle to see how.
  13. What a great opportunity for an institution to change societal norms for the better
  14. An email is a start. Banning people for life should help. Supporting officials to press charges would also help.
