  1. Having clubs investing in off field setups was what the grading was about but it it looks like it might be all thrown out of the window when the first signs that it might be working were showing. IMO we have to get away from the idea that the elite professional level of the game is no different than two amateur sides playing each other in a park.
  2. We have been reminded, frequently and powerfully, that as a sport, on-field performance has to be at the heart of everything, with success properly rewarded. There is also a need to reflect upon the actual sporting contest to re-establish whether it is the very best it can be, from athletes, match officials and rule makers collectively. This says to me that promotion and relegation is coming back. Promotion and relegation that has been ditched for a licensing/grading system twice. It would be a backward step to go back to it IMO.
  3. It was a flat performance and Leigh were the better team from the start. It is worrying how we had no spark in attack without Lewis. After next weeks game there is two weeks until the next one and I think a week off is needed.
  4. Super League is still known as Super League Europe is it not? If so then why is there all the grumbling about having a European team in a European league?
  5. If that’s true then it will be what was expected, not wanting Toulouse in Super League even if it means overriding the grading system.
  6. What were the reasons given as why that is?
  7. For the grading to mean anything it should be the next 2 clubs in line which from what I could see are Toulouse and London. If Salford are demoted then the next club is York.
  8. Leeds were deserved winners though we we had those chances to score in the first half which were bombed. In the second half Leeds were in control and we did not look like scoring. Five of our next six games are away, though two of them are against Salford and a poorly performing Catalans with the home game against Castleford. The game against Leigh is now bigger than it would have been if we had won.
  9. Being able to have 10 doesn’t mean they have to have 10. The clubs won’t think so but they don’t.
  10. Instead of worrying about lack of income they should be thinking “there will be plenty of extra seats available so these are opportunities to try and attract more locals.”
  11. Jeopardy leads clubs into short term thinking and panic signings with money they might not be able to afford. We saw with London what can happen when’s team is promoted before they are really ready for it.
  12. 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.
  13. It is something I have on my watchlist list although Natasha Lyonne seems to play the same character in everything she’s in.
  14. It proves to me that the clubs should not be having as much day in what happens in the game as they do.
  15. Would the game be able to afford to break with IMG so early. I would have thought that there would be a financial penalty to do that and to do so this early on in the agreement it would be a hefty one.
