Stanley Gene. At the time he was born the Australasion and African plates were joined. -
The cycle needs to break

The St PieLoins do bore me. Just imagine if Catalan lose to a disputed refereeing performance? Justified of course...... -
I was dreading a Pies v Saints GF but this is great news. I hear a lot about the quality of the competition when the St PieLoins aren't that strong but I think its a lot more depressing when two of those teams make the GF anyway despite a flat and unremarkable season. We'll Done HKR! A breath of fresh air.

Super League: what have you done to our game?
corvusxiii replied to Cerulean's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
So here's a thing, we generally agree that RL is the greatest game yet constantly comment on how short it falls of its potential. For me the ugly wrestle, repetitive one out plays, random officiating kills the spectacle. Away atm and didn't see last nights game but how can we 'encourage' a great spectacle? Ok I'm on dodgy ground here but is it worth asking the question, Why was 60 mins of Warrington v Saints Fab and how do we make that 80 mins? Or should we? -

I was there, didn't see anything in the tackle so I'm calling him soft when he stayed down. Eventually he gets onto all fours and what looked like a pint of blood fell out of his head. I shut up. A fractured palate I heard later. Still feel queasy about it. -

Reduce to 12. Reduce to 7-8 metres. This reduces the 'cart it in' effectiveness. And gives more space away from the ptb. RU would love it perhaps.... -

I'd suggest one out plays are used because the defense is 10m away. Easy safe gains. Not 6 agains.
