Why would anyone want to stay in the car crash that is SL with its salary cap from 2002? 🤷‍♂️

You’re a cherry little chap.

Small sport small money , big sport big money. Sorry but its a job and only for a small period of time , we are just shrinking all the time with zero vision to grow the game in a meaningful way.

All I will say that a friend - as "reward" for a favour - took me to see Sale play Toulouse. A bottle of whisky perhaps , but ah well.

I was sat watching Josh Charnley spin nonchalantly and almost invisible marking air on the Sharks wing. i am sure he was earning more than that game than I was in a few years, but he cut a certain redundant figure as the "Chaps" and "Guys" battled out consequent rucks, scrums and line outs.

If Regan wants that more fool him, less fool his bank balance.

To say that Regan Grace is not cut out for RU is ridiculous ... he was brought up on it. If he can tackle the likes of Ryan Hall and Fouad Yaha he can tackle the likes of any RU winger. 40 players have been released by the Welsh RU Regions and so he probably won't go to Wales for political and financial reasons rather than for not being wanted. His father is reportedly English.

However, it's true that he is more cut out for RL ... that's why Canberra are reportedly interested in him.

Have you noticed that we're supposedly interested in every SL player with any notoriety these days?

The truth is that we're not seriously interested in the vast majority of them, their managers are just trying to use our existence and recent history of hiring poms to increase the value of their contracts at home.

That's not to say that the club isn't interested in Regan Grace in particular, as I wouldn't have any more of a clue than you do as to whether they're interested in him in particular.

I do see that argument, but Even if GB played as much England do, then it wouldn't be anywhere near enough of a carrot currently.

Currently no but it was a very viable option not too long back and with a bit of effort it could be again imo.

Thats nothing to do with it

It is exactly something to do with it. Shows how seriously we have taken Wales part in GB over the decades.

Let's face it, it existed solely to include Welsh RU converts and not as a development tool in Wales.

Unfortunately that is spot on…

We got rid of GB to 'focus on nations' then did nothing to grow the other nations and because they only get meaningful games once every four years,  most declare for England.  

Probably plays our World Cup and hops over after.

That is the other nations fault, not England's. Its not England's job to grow Scottish and Welsh rugby.

Part of the split was also to open up funding for each union.

I think the Welsh are actually doing an OK job.

Well that is about as debatable as it gets. You're right the Welsh are doing a great job though.

Now it is I think something like the last 5 years. When GB was actually a thing it was absolutely the RFLs job as the other RLs didn’t exist.

Saying we're twice when referring to union confirms that you are a union fan. I knew you wasn't a fan of TTG, and i thought you was a fumbleball fan, but 100% i knew you wasn't one of us.

I think Regan Grace, should think very carefully about turning away from St. Helens and Rugby League in general, in response to an offer from the great god Ra.

I am afraid that he may not fully appreciate, that having supped his fill of the delights of playing alongside those (great) Saints players, who have taken every opportunity to include him fully, in the fast and furious Super League, a return to the sedentary, soporific, spectator sport that is Kick and Clap wing-play will suck every bit of enthusiasm (for playing) and every ounce of his innate zest for life out of his veins and leave him a dry and withered, lifeless husk of his former self.

That would be the biggest tragedy of all.

I'd advise he speaks to Josh Charnley and Denny Solomona about their experiences in the gloomy, mephitic halls of the noxious opium dens, carefully crafted by the great Ra to seduce our best and fairest back to the dark side.

Life, and achieving it's full potential, isn't just about the acquisition of money.

What does it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, but suffers the loss of his own soul?
