  1. Past hour
  2. I haven't seen much of Dodd for Souths (obviously), but from what I have he just looks painfully slow for a halfback. The other issues, like not being part of a fluent attack would come with time, but the pace issue looks terminal.
  3. 10,000 fans! it really isn’t rocket science, but 10k a week will deliver sponsors and further revenue. I spent 20+ years in Brentford and remember the guys shaking a Bucket for the football team before matches and now they are a premiership side in a new stadium. Community is key and Merton isn’t right for them IMO. Hughes was a fool and I suspect GH has bitten off more than he can chew this time….
  4. WINNERS BULLDOGS DRAGONS STORM ROOSTERS SEA EAGLES TOTAL POINTS 222 AWAY WINS 2 POLL SEA EAGLES TO WIN 1 TO 12
  5. Today
  6. Maracana stadium rio. Australia v England & New Zealand three tournament (play each other once).
  7. The constant flip flopping and inability to stick to anything that’s decided on shows that they have proven over and over again that no one should have any faith in the clubs being run the game.
  8. Yesterday
  9. I'm in agreement with that conclusion, based on the different competences and freedom from conflicts of interest required to run a whole sport compared with those required to run a club.
  10. France have had far better shirts than these.
  11. Some of us have been saying for years that SL Chairmen running the show with their selfish idea's and an "I'm alright Jack attitude" has never been any good for the games well being.
  12. You mean like Altringham, Birkenhead, Blackpool, Bradford FC,Broughton Rangers, Carlisle City, Heckmondwike Holbeck, Kent Invicta/Southend Invicta, Lancaster, Leigh, Liverpool City, Manningham, ........Runcorn, Streatham and Mitcham, Prescot Panthers, Celtic de Paris, PSG, Abedare RLFC, Ebbw Vale RLFC, Merthyr Tydfil RLFC........
  13. Interesting points, and sure, London and PSG were chosen to launch Super League in 1996 without traditional promotion. But honestly, does anyone really care about the “how” from nearly 30 years ago? The real issue is what happens now and in the future. Whether it’s 1876 or 2026, rugby league has to focus on building strong, sustainable clubs in key areas — London being critical. The game has a history of neglecting expansion clubs once the novelty wears off. If we want rugby league to grow beyond its heartlands, it needs real, consistent support, not just “handpicking” or short-term favours. So instead of digging up old arguments about who was parachuted where, let’s talk seriously about how to make clubs like London genuinely viable long-term. That’s what matters now — not the past.
  14. Wayne Bennett speaking enthusiastically with the media is a sure sign he is losing the plot. Lewis Dodd wasn't really all that great in SL, not sure why anyone thought he would be good in the NRL. Who is actually responsible for his Souths signing?
  15. Interestingly (or not as may be the case), the removal of RL from the main menu on BBC page when overseas occurred on the eve of either the opening match of the 2013 WC, the Semi or the Final. Considering the “world” event which was - or was about to be - taking place, it was a slap in the face from the BBC at the time. Has never been rectified.
  16. For Origin they are in camp such a short time that you can see both States clearly value knowledge of the onfield battle and leadership qualities over proven tactical coaching skills.
  17. Yes I know that, but the clubs are the constant.
  18. Always good to use to bids:
  19. Well that will bhugger up Toulouse with the big Blue Chip companies in and around the City that they attracted a few years ago, oh hang on just a minute that wasn't just roumers was it?
  20. Somewhat embarrassingly I did post this on the football thread, knowing it wasn't actually thread worthy IMO, and after a few minutes the site on my phone was back to normal. Despite being in the UK, I think there was a flickering between .com and .co.uk, admittedly it was well timed with the start of the Euro 25 tournament.
  21. Hindi metal band Bloodywood teamed up with Japanese Kawaii Metal group Babymetal for Bekhauf. And a nicely-animated video. Brace yourself for Samurai Ganesh!
