  1. Legend. Always comes across as a nice bloke, down to earth. And never seen him have a bad game for England.
  2. But how great is it. ? They've been battering away at each other in Serbia for 20 years playing community rugby league, and over the past decade they've built on what they've got and promoted expansion to other neighboring countries. Its just amazing to see.
  3. Could we put some sort of Mario cart style power ups on the pitch that allowed players to sprint faster, or perhaps allowed them to fire shells or banana skins at the opposition's full back?
  4. There needs to be something to even this division up for sure. It's easy to see why old clubs nearer the vast number of community and academy players do better than those that arent in a semi pro division. You can also, not quiet but almost, draw a circle round the most densly populated league player pools and just order the table based on distance from that at the start of the season, rather than play any matches. I'm not going to lie, it's actually put me off driving to the game the other week when other commitments meant it would have been a bit tight to get there in time, knowing the result beforehand.
  5. It is now I heard it as wild speculation a few weeks back now the raiders haveva large hole there next year. He's so good the nrl clubs must be sniffing around. In less troubled times I suspect there would be wild speculation he'd be going to union! Thank god that door's closed.
  6. I'm struggling to see how young would make a great centre. Someone even talked about him wanting to full back I'm sure at some point. He'd have to change his game so much he'd lose a lot surely
  7. Kendal Koalas have just been announced in Franchise Rugby League
  8. I'm just struggling to work out the angle for making money out of this.
  9. Another great day in rugby league administration
  10. What does it mean when someone's profile name has a blue hand next to it. Ive seen it before but never understood what it was for.
  11. I suspect if we only allowed women to post on threads re women's rugby league, or at least limited the number of men posting on the women's game to fewer than ppsts by men, this thread would be very much shorter. Or perhaps with less pedantic willy waving.
  12. Amazing. I mean there is positive bias for, or against, the super league and NRL, which is perfectly reasonable and open for debate. Then there is this level of hatred against anyone who doesn't play in super league. Part of the reason we are so sH1+.
  13. Yes watched it. Depressing viewing. Although a lot is probably correct. However some of it was certainly not. "Why do we have to care about the international game? Does the NFL care about growing internationally?" The guy needs to know what he's talking about before he comments on it. I suspect he's sort of right re the no nrl in 15 years thing. It wouldn't be dead but it would not be anything like it is (and before everyone piles in and says I love the NRL, I do. But I don't hate SL. Or the levels below. I do think the pro game here would be on borrowed time without the nrl. But without a growing international presence for League, the NRL won't be what it is in 50 years time. Sydney is on track to be bigger than London. That looks a nice little place to stage a few NFL games in 15 years time? Ultimately soccer will swamp everything in Sydney. Etc. The really worrying thing for me is the night before he was slagging off the Panthers for having no class and that (which no one outside Sydney gives a 5hi+ about) went mad on twitter, with quarter of a million views. And lots of shouty people. This? Pretty much nothing comparatively!
  14. I think that is the very reason they should be praised. They've been turning over a steady community comp for a couple of decades now. Where else in the world could claim that?
  15. It's Euro xiii rebrabded. I'll open the popcorn. This'll be fun.
  16. At some point in the not too distant future someone at the NRL will think this is a good idea and a team branded as GB or England made up of soley oz based players will play Fiji or the like in Sydney. This will be the start of the end of the IRL and the shrinking of English influence on the world game.
  17. A few probably turned up for the Broncos too.
  18. The canberra game was fantastic. I remember watching it atvtge time, but I dontbyhink it was live most likely a mud week repeat on sky. But I found it on YouTube a few years back and watched again. Shaun Edwards came on as a sub and seem to completely change the match around. What a player!
  19. I haven't been offered a deal. They obviously didn't like my complimentary customer feedback
  20. I can't find the thread where someone amazing used to put up the disparate Elite 1 links that had been located for the weekend.? I thought it used to be on the brilliant https://www.rugbyleagueontv.com/ but the French games don't seem to get listed any more.
  21. Surely as the policeman in 'allo 'allo. "Its fifth tickle and mallony is pitting up the hee bum."
