I think you'll be surprised by Jamaica.. on paper they can put together a squad with enough talent to easily hold their own against any of the 2nd tier nations.. Yeah England should win but it won't be by loads...12-16pts I reckon 2 Quote OLDHAM RLFC the 8TH most successful team in british RL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eddie 2,321 Report post Posted October 17, 2019 Hopefully there’ll be a decent crowd, not that I can make it myself. I would like to see more Knights fixtures against Tier 2 nations, both for the benefit of our players and theirs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommygilf 4,802 Report post Posted October 17, 2019 Some real quality in there. No Jack Walker so would seem Evalds to start at FB. This is the best test for both teams. Shame its only 1 game this year sadly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The grass roots has been there for years, Romeo, Roy and the team have done wonders with basically no funding. They beat the USA with a fully domestic squad. To give you an indication, if you threw $1000 US at them, it would pay a full time development officer for a year. I support what you say, but It would be a bigger thing to engage the wider Jamaican community in Jamaica, they have talent, and new comers want to play, its just needs some funding to expand. The issue is not about getting grass roots off the ground, but getting exposure of the sport to these kids in more remote areas. If they keep going, Jamaica will be producing some guns in the next ten years, 6 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Futtocks 13,532 Report post Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Hmm, I mainly stream these matches via Twitch, because the OurLeague stream is still glitchy and buffers a lot for me. Do I pay the fee and quite possibly spend most of the match reloading and buffering, or do I give it a swerve this time and wait 'til the OurLeague service is more useable?

The Hallucinating Goose 2,015 Report post Posted October 17, 2019 Unfortunately I can't make the game so I was looking forward to watching it but I'm not paying for the privilege. Guess I'll just watch the highlights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Manxmanc 813 Report post Posted October 17, 2019 Just re-reading the Our League page, it refers to '...coverage of all three men's internationals will be available for an Early Bird price of only £2.49'. This could be interpreted as £2.49 per match, or £2.49 for all three matches, which would be a really good deal if it included Samoa v Fiji and Fiji v Papua New Guinea. Can anyone confirm either way?

It took me years to shake them off. They seem to get round all sorts of "unsubscribe" and 'send to junk' moves. It's quite an achievement. I even emailed them and threatened to sue. They visit you in your nightmares until the end of time after you buy a single ticket to a game. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
