Top 5 Movies Of All Time

When we played at Gillingham a few years ago there was clearly discussions going on about a potential move there. Medway Dragons seemed to be going well then but I don’t know what their current position is. Comparing a couple of one-off matches at Ebbsfleet with Wimbledon is not really a fair comparison. I went to the first match at Plough Lane and there were clearly a lot of Wimbledon fans there. The crowds then dropped off. I don’t think that there is any easy answer. I would have preferred to stay at Trailfinders. We are obviously going to get bigger crowds because we are in the Super League. Then what? The most likely thing is another move in 2-3 years unfortunately. The Broncos are clearly a different sort of club to most, if not all, of the other clubs in the league. I just accept that now.

Strong rumours NRL #18 team will be PNG
westlondonfan replied to Bamboozle's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
I don’t. -
This was my first ever Challenge Cup Final after many years following rugby league and it turned out tobe an enjoyable match and a really memorable occasion. I would thoroughly recommend that anyone who has never gone to a Challenge Cup final should buy a ticket and go along as there was a really great atmosphere in the stadium.

Oz Govt support for PNG NRL bid
westlondonfan replied to Jim from Oz's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
No. I don’t think that would work. I think a PNG team in the NRL though would after 15 years, create another very competitive international team. -
I have driven past this ground quite a few times and I have to say I was amazed when I saw the state of the stand by the road. You look at that ground and it amazes me that people visited Ealing and “That’s not Super League.” Anyway it was an enjoyable afternoon despite the weather and until the ball was dropped in the last five minutes I thought London might snatch it. the vegan burgers were quite nice actually.

Where will RL be in 5 years?
westlondonfan replied to Eddie's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Northern hemisphere probably more difficulties. We have had so many chances to expand. Southern hemisphere more expansion. A NRL team in PNG would probably mean they could have an international game without needing a competitive English team. London RL I hope can move forward as a spectator sport but the Broncos recent decisions have been absolutely baffling.
