  1. Half time quiz. Joe Burgess scored his first ever Super League try against which team?
  2. I though I should start a topic asking forum members to demand that Sky to fix it. Instead I turned it off and on. Fixed.
  3. Watching on Sky Go on laptop. Audio commentary is about 20 seconds ahead of video! I heard the try scored , well before it was scored!
  4. Really? Far to slow and static at the PTB, giving HKR time to get in their faces. Hull need to scoot from the PTB .
  5. Watched the first half. Impressed and thought that Cas were finally going to put some points on. They were fast, aggressive, positive and really had Leeds up against the ropes. Just couldn't get over the line thanks to Leeds heroic defence. Didn't watch the 2nd half, though.
  6. Your admission is welcome. Shouldn't you be at work, though?
  7. Maybe the rest of us viewed it and dismissed it as yet another pointless whine from the sports professional victim club.
  8. Does anyone enjoy them ? This is rugby league..... You're not meant to enjoy it.
  9. The Scientific American explains: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/francis-scott-key-bridge-collapse-engineering/
  10. Oh dear, M jM, I think it's rather you who is disconnected. Whilst what you say may be correct, it is by far not the whole story, as you know. The Times and the Sunday Times regularly print supplements dedicated to Rugby Union with lots of support from advertisers. On line or off line, the Guardian is still a miserable rag dedicated to complaining how bad things were, are and will be in England and deducated to providing BBC News and Current Affairs with it's content. In addition, it's on line presence is free, unlike the proper newspapers. Indeed, even the Mail is gradually going behind a payeall. And you know what they say: something free is worth every penny you pay. The demographic of the Guardian is 86% ABC1. 54% of The Guardian readers are male, and the average age of the print reader is 54.18. What do they know if the life and leisure of the horny handed sons of toil that make up the mass of rugby league supporters? Answers on a pin head, please. 1.7billion minutes were spent on MailOnline's websites and app in July 909million for Guardian, 688million for Sun and 417million for Mirror Average dwell time for dailymail.co.uk site and app users is 75 minutes 48 minutes on Guardian, 27 minutes on Sun and 16 minutes on Mirror
  11. "What irks me is the slavish coverage of Union in the so called quality papers of the Times, Telegraph, Express, Mail and yes Guardian." I agree completely. I don't rate the Express or Mail as "quality" though, and the Guardian has a trivial circulation of mainly Owen Jones/Melvyn Bragg-ish acolytes (present company excepted, of course) There's a real story there for a Guardian reporter to investigate why that is.
  12. On this day, in 1827, Ludwig van Beethoven stopped composing and started decomposing.
  13. First I've heard of it. Fev probably not alone in this situation "No he's just a lazy get." Nice there.
