RLWC Negativity Thread

[graveyard johnny]

this is tongue in cheek by the way 

shocking BBC presentation 

opening ceremony shambles 

empty stadia 

bad injuries for Samoa

teams that wouldn't trouble Batley making up the numbers

one sided scorelines

the officials dressed up like life size sex toys

I spilt some of my beer on the way back to my seat yesterday. Oh, and the card machine at the Costa on Newcastle station wasn't working very well. Took ages to authorise my card.

Wouldn't life size, in relation to sex toys at least, mean the size that sex toys tend to be? In which case a life size sex toy would be about 10 inches long and black, or what kind of massive sex toys are you in ownership of??

Think it’s unfair RL showcases its skills and genuine community spirit whilst our rah rah cousins are so down on their luck…

I was talking to a few Union fans at a gathering earlier, they were being very negative, I walked away in the end.

It's a closed shop. The criteria whereby a country can move from pool B to pool A are far from clear, while it's pretty obvious that the countries in pool C are just going to get left behind.

It's a farce.

[Henson Park Old Firm]

West Indies RL should replace Jamaica

[Phil W]

The most inclusive tournament ever?! Not for me and my black and white TV it's not, what's all this red button rubbish about. I've had to ask them to open up my local library especially just to post on this topic.

I think it should be renamed the Rugby League Woke Cup. Until then, I find it too offensive, so I’m out.

Rugby League Whereiseverybody Cup

12:30 am kick off is absurd.

[The Masked Poster]

I barely know any England players except Jeremy Peacock and Paul Scunthorpe.

We can't get the red button any longer here in Ireland.

[StandOffHalf]

The anthems without a singer leading them are very uninspiring and flat.

[doc]

The game keeps stopping. For a few minutes players stand around, while the ref ponders his own existence. What's all that about?

[RayCee]

It interferes with the NRL season.

My fault, I'm afraid.  I put my donor card in by mistake. It cost me an arm...and a leg ..

My son and I were just behind you! It was fine.

I bought a new raincoat for this and so far every game has been dry.

[Angelic Cynic]

Not enough away support.

I have even heard the players for Greece are not being paid.

They should all be kicked out the tournament. 

Worse than Toronto...

Should have gone to Australia v Fiji!

Headingley's away stand still doesn't have a roof.
