A moan about the cost of a ticket at Leigh

A gripe about how bad a place Canberra must be ( I'm presuming this is tongue in cheek?)

A couple of gripes about how England have no chance of even competing against Australia in the world cup.

A gripe about Featherstone fans ( Ironically from someone from Hull!)

More stuff about the kneeling etc

So well done to Gavin Willacy for finally giving us something positive to read.

 

Don't you just love the positivity surrounding RL and it's fans

The letter this week which declared that the red card for Pauli Pauli was evidence of corrosive "wokism' having overtaken our proud old sport was surely a wind up?
