BBC Sport website headlines the game as a “classic”. Not sure I’d go as far as that, but it was pretty enthralling stuff on the whole. Cas absolutely deserved something from the game for their comeback late on and a point apiece was more than fair, even if it did take 10 minutes of nonsense to get there. At 28-22 you could just see Leigh’s heads were down and overall lacking some leaders to be brutally honest, and the Cas equalising try felt inevitable in that sense. Took some nuts to land the kick, too, fair play.

Tbf with some of the motorway diversions I’m pretty sure I’ve ended up virtually in Sheffield

The current ground would hold 10,000 if it was an NRL ground! It could easily be developed in to a much larger capacity with the banking in place already, but as always finance would be likely to be the issue. Current one is surely in a much better location than where the new one is planned, but others will know better than me on that one.

Doesn’t need to be anywhere near as Magnum PI as that. Each club is legally obliged to be able to provide the attendance and ticket sales, and the RFL already routinely receive this information every week via the ground safety officers.

Get bed lad

Cos Spurs have already surrendered most of there free weeks

Tbh the theory of super clubs (and indeed franchises in its various forms) has that as a very real possibility Manchester, London, Paris, a merged Hull club and whatever else yet Wigan and Saints were unaffected and taking up two spots

As a Leigh RL fan, I pretty much disregard it. EFL incompetence also means I’ll be at Leigh v Cas after all! (been out boozing in Peterborough all day today with a Giants fan who I am sure you and @meast will know. And I’ve got to get him a ticket for the play offs on Friday!)

Utd can’t play on that weekend because they can’t guarantee that they only play on the Saturday. But the local area is basically on lockdown from the Friday so they’d do well if they played at home that weekend unless they weed in exceptional circumstances.

I don’t do a bad ‘un, Roy, you know that!

The key is getting in early enough with the football clubs before they’ve already used up their allotted 7 shifts Old Trafford are pretty well versed on the Grand Final being one of those (if it isn’t an international weekend) along with Manchester Marathon, but the others would need to be a sharp shift, particularly Spurs with their NFL commitments.

No, it isn’t.

If ain’t broke and all that, Harry. Didn’t see McNamara being a big player but he played the supporting role superbly.

Relatively speaking I think that’s Leigh’s most polished performance in 30 years. Not even exaggerating. Flawless down the middle. Who knew the Moylan-McNamara-Lam triad would work so well? Makes up for watching it in a (frankly outstanding) tandoori tap house in Peterborough while Wigan are losing on the other telly

Now this is the benefit of more than one game being shown at a time
