Watch Rugby League Back Chat (15 Aug) online now

The future of reserve grade Rugby League could be given a rather large boost as clubs plan to amalgamate players into a meaningful gaming structure which can only be good news for players and spectators alike, can’t it?

Should clubs be docked points for crowd trouble? Featherstone Rovers have an opinion on this.

And for a game renowned for its speed, why are those players intent on slowing it down not punished from the off, or could that be construed in itself as negative officiating?

In discussion with host Matt Shaw are League Express editor Martyn Sadler, Featherstone Rovers Chairman Mark Campbell and the RFL’s Interim Chief On-Field Officer, David Rotheram.
