As a haven fan, clayton friend was brilliant, bit it's got to be David slSeeds

The girls have regional leagues(yorks/lancs/cumbria). The prem teams play fixtures across all 3, the teams in Yorkshire definitely played as my 2 nieces had games. 1 plays in the prem and they were traveling to the North East to play

The women's final no doubt would be improved if the rfl didn't have the girls playing a full round of league fixtures on cup final day.

Those playing in aus need to be in. Whitfield went well today

The team should have a load in, how many of saints team would get in wigans?

I agree he shouldn't be the coach, no doubt it will be full of his favs though, they won't win in the next world cup. They definitely won't win with the people who have failed before. Stick the young ones in and let them get the experience they need. If we lose by 70/80/90 then so be it, the ones he played in vegas did that. The game has and is moving on, the next generation of players are coming thru and that's who needs to go with

I thought he said some of the experienced players may still be in and around, I could only half here it tho so may have missed heard. The squad should be full of the young exciting players, the old guard showed in vegas they are miles off what's required

No problem, we had 5 nights in vegas, flew from Heathrow to Los Angeles and then a connecting flight to vegas, way back was vegas to chicago back to Heathrow. Tbf a few of my mates got it cheaper than we did. I'd definitely get there for the Freemont street stuff on the Thursday tho that was a brilliant day/night.

That looks expensive to me, I went this year and for me and the Mrs it was a tad over £1600 in total for the flights and hotel. I booked it myself so didn't go thru either club

I'd be surprised if it works. The mirifleld set up is poor, Mirfield don't have many jnrs either.

How much do they generate?

Yes. The bigger clubs average 7 to 8k attendance I think. And the league average is 3 to 4k

It's looks more like everyone else has quit Irish RL and the longhorns are carrying it

Starting new teams in places with no history of rl or very little, with next to no community/amateur teams and without access to the best/most experienced players is doomed to fail and pointless. The weaker Heartland clubs struggle and that's with access to all of the above. Its Madness that we repeat the same thing over and over again.

It's pie in the sky stuff, theres not enough money in the game and not enough money generated by the women's game to support it. The women's super league needs to be smaller not bigger, there's not enough talent to support it as it is. Focus on growing the jnr game and building a wider pyramid. A bigger catchment of players will likely increase the potential to have a bitter quality of athlete. Foc
