Futtocks Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Beautiful! Well done to the guys developing the game down there and also to both Wigan and St Helens for getting involved.

shrek Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Great work. Would love to see a Wigan v Saints derby on the road in Bristol, shame the south west seems to have missed out on the 2021 World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Living down here in Exeter I have to say a few years ago and this would not be happening - this is the result of a lot of work and a concerted effort to win over hearts and minds There are loads of kids down here who aren't ever going to be RU players beyond the social game but still are good athletes and could prosper better in RL - having no other outlet they often stop sport all together outside of school Hopefully this sort of support carries on - Leigh were supposed to be backing Exeter at one point but that seems to have died the death sadly And Leeds were down here at one point but that's gone quiet, I suppose while they build the new stand - lack of cash flow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs continued support for a number of years. If I was asked to put a finger on the number I would say at least 7. Big commitment. Not sure if this is covered within ETP.
