audois Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Gavin Willacy in the 'The Guardian' has his say... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/no-helmets-required/2021/nov/11/rugby-league-club-hertfordshire-canada-cornwall-hemel-stags-ottawa 1 "It involves matters much greater than drafting the new rules...the original and existing games have their own powerful appeal to their players and public and have the sentiments which history inspires" - Harold 'Jersey' Flegg 1933 "Just as we had been Cathars, we were treizistes, men apart." - Jean Roque, Calendrier-revue du Racing-Club Albigeois, 1958-1959 Si tu( Remi Casty) devais envoyer un fax au Président Guasch?

Damien Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 It's quite surprising that the bookies have Cornwall at 10/1 to be promoted. Not hugely different than say Oldham that are 3rd favourites at 6/1: https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/keighley-favourites-league-one/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I respect Skolars work in North Laandaan, Hector McNeil worked harder than anyone to get them going. Cornwall will be just as hard a job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornwall will be just as hard a job. I think it's going to be a much harder job unfortunately. Skolars had solid foundations before they turned professional. Cornwall are virtually starting from scratch. Have they even appointed a coach yet? And do they have any players signed on? If so, they're keeping very quiet about everything, and the season is starting very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle seem to be going in the right direction but failed as Gateshead. Without serious investment the future looks bleak outside the M62. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you come to that conclusion. Who pays the travel expenses? A split gate so not 8k. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
