Maybe there should be a RL Commercial Needs a Rob Oates article?

As I say I'm not sure where he's dreamt it up from, I didn't say you had made it up

Well no, SQ is on about it as well as this fan you spoke to, that's plural

https://leighleopards.co.uk/leigh-leopards-reebok-team-up/ Even the official presser has a quote from Sports Hub " John Carden, MD of Leeds-based Sports Hub Group, exclusive UK/IRE Reebok team wear licensee, said: “I can’t express how thrilled everyone at Reebok Teamsports is to have this new partnership. To have a club as big, bold and forward-thinking as Leigh Leopards is the perfect reintroduction to Rugby for Reebok. “We’ve completely bought into the club’s vision and brief, and our talented designers have lovingly crafted a set of playing kit and training wear for the club’s third year as the Leopards.” I think it's great to have a decent name in SL but as you say, not sure why Leigh fans are making it out to be something it's not.

The sports team wear is totally different to the consumer stuff. Either way I'm not sure where this fantasy that Reebok are the driving force in what games Sky show is coming from

Which has nothing to do with the Reebok Branded team wear in the UK, as posted that's Sports Hub in Leeds

No it isn't, its with Sports Hub Group in Leeds, just like the Patrick deal. ABG have probably never even heard of the deal

Lighten up, just pointing out Leigh's kit deal is not with Reebok

I’ve heard there’s an emergency meeting in Boston taking place to make sure Leigh’s Thursday games are all on the main channels.

Sounds like rubbish to me Harry, I doubt actual Reebok know anything about it. The Manufacturer and supplier isn’t any different to Patrick

The home shirt is an exact copy of a previous shirt, just like yellow one, that’s what he's referring to i think

I mean i like the idea of a reverse amber and blue shirt, but weve slready got a ‘heritage’ copy and paste job for tge home kit, why not just try make a noce design rather than copying a shirt we got walloped in

As nice as it is I’m not sure celebrating a drubbing in the WCC is anything to shout about

The designers ctrl C and V keys must be worn out at oxen

Reappointed again, it’s only a month since they appointed him

Yes sorry I read it incorrectly. we have 3 home Thursday games though

I understand all that, just my personal preference so having a vent. The 4 Thursdays home games in a row is not the best though.

Top flight sport is about money shocker! Name one that isn’t.

Yeah I can see the logic and why it's being done but as I say it messes with my personal preferences, which is of course the most important thing

Not a fan of this fixture list to be honest - 4 thursday home games in a row near the end

6 Friday night games is really poor, I realise it’s just a personal opinion but Friday nights has been a bit of a mainstay for the Rhinos, and I know it’s the best for corporate clients. Anyway I suppose it’s inevitable if they want to avoid games in at the same time.

Really hope Leeds don’t get a lot of saturday/sunday games, the odd few is fine but there were far too many for my liking last year.

The Barrie Mac ‘sending off’ was clearly all set up. I enjoyed the game for what it was, some decent skill and dome decent hits. Both Dannys (Cipriani and McGuire) still have all the skills! Would be interesting to see the rules played by current players, didn’t like the unlimited tackle rule (in your own half) and the 5m line was too short. Some of the union boys showed skill and I think they enjoyed the extra room to actually play
