  1. I don't think the game goes out of its way to make a one sided match less so and as everyone knows - good teams make their own luck. This is toxic for me a a neutral RL fan.
  2. .....finally...... I am somewhat grumpy about this issue.
  3. Stuck at York Railway Station, desperately hoping for quicker ptbs in order that the RL game doesn't descend into a slow-mo sludge fest. Other avenues for moaning are available.
  4. I half remember something similar with Leroy Cudgoe. He effectively threw the ball back behind his head to his supporting player. He couldn't have thrown the ball 'More Back'. The video showed the ball being caught in front of where he passed it. And still we have this conversation.
  5. I'm happy that the HKR attackers made no attempt to catch the ball and only interfered with the Liegh player.
  6. Pog in yellow, and green, and polka dots. First time since Merckx they said. Yikes.
  7. I'd argue that this applies to all dominant teams, and this really does not help the game from an entertainment point of view.
  8. Here's the thing, you're more right than wrong and I've never being more desparing for RL than this instant.
  9. Tbf this is one of the few Cas matches I've actively chosen not to watch. (don't live in Sunny Cas anymore). RL isn't a good 80 minutes when your team is not so good. 10% off and it's a blood bath. If your team is struggling from the season start then there's not a lot to go on entertainment wise. However, that teams that make their own luck just kills me. I'm old enough to remember Cas playing in 2017 and receiving many nothing penalties for nowt. No idea why a team who were being dominated were being penalised for no obvious offence. Didn't add anything to the contest. So would I have been entertained tonight? Yes, a good game despite the inevitable result. But for the sake of the popularity of the game do not kill the spectacle when /if it is not necessary. I'm not talking about manipulating results. I'm saying don't go out of your way to kill the game, teams should absolutely not make their own luck. I'm thinking this does not make the product on the pitch anymore popular to the passing observer(or does it?) Anyway, well done Wigan tonight and i'm hoping the GF isn't a tedious slog where I'm checking FB for something to do. Some interesting games tonight but I'm still miserable though
  10. If the GF is a slow motion tedious display of ptb interference resulting in..... Ohhh let's say a Wigan win over let's say... HKR, I would be a touch depressed and I don't think our game would gain anything from such a scenario. Tbf though, I'm not a Wigan, Saints or Leeds fan so what do I know.
  11. The best teams make their own luck. It really doesn't help the product on the pitch though.
  12. Used to be Corbyn but probably Starmer these days.
