Re: Swindon away

Yeah R3 is where it’s really going to hurt the smaller clubs who draw the big clubs financially compared to previous seasons, the money just won’t be there this time around. Even if it is available on PPV, which seems unlikely the further we go due to what’s happening with PL games now being broadc...

Re: Back to Basics Boston on Tuesday

Yes, we all should be celebrating today, and we look forward to Monday evening and the draw, but more importantly we need 3 points against Boston on Tuesday night followed by another 3 points against Telford on Saturday. A cup run I’d great for the finances and moral of all of us, but let’s get poi...

Re: Rugby League

Well Wigan win the League Leaders Shield, but a stubborn Huddersfield make Wigan have to dig deep. At least Wigan have earned themselves a little time off, as places 3-6 have to fight it out in the playoffs. Was busy and only caught the last 10 first half and first 10 second. Looked a tight hard ga...

Re: Rugby League

Re: Rugby League

In my opinion a sad day for SL with the expulsion of Toronto. It shows North America that SL is against them getting involved. As someone who was behind the club and have fought their corner since they came into our leagues I feel both short changed and betrayed by what has gone on at Toronto. I th...

Re: Rugby League

So Toronto will NOT be back in SL. Failed by a vote of 8-4 with 1 not voting. Will they be allowed back in the lower leagues? . I am hearing that we run 11 clubs next season. Champions up and no relegation for 3 seasons to bring us to 14 clubs.. That will undo a lot of the harm the bloody middle 8's...

Re: Rugby League

Massive match tonight as Wigan take on St. Helens with the winner likely to be favourites to win the league winners shield, if there is one awarded this year? Catalans are the only club not to have hit the magic number 15 so yes it will be awarded as that was the number set as the minimum needed. I...

Re: Rugby League

They only seem to look at forward passes. if a try is scored before a tackle is made & then only when they have the TV coverage to look at the offending pass. I've not got tickets for the World Cup, as I have no idea whether I will be off work when the matches take place. But it sounds like they ar...

Re: Rugby League

The VAR works far better in RL than football. My only gripes are that they do not always when checking go back far enough in the play and they seem to totally ignore forward passes. That may seem a small point, but on 1 of the the RL sites I run it is by far the biggest complaint people have. I keep...

Re: Swindon away

There is some cup history pre-history really. We won there in the cup in1965 when Jimmy Lawton starred we swapped him for Alan Sproates after the game. Not literally but it was canny business. Not an ideal tie but as Gps points out we said much the same about Walsall. I think we can bring Swindon b...

Re: Rugby League

A good game in trying conditions. I chose Storm as "my side" but have to say the first half score was just no reflection of the game. Talk about making the most of your chances. The Panthers must have been totally gob smacked to be so far behind on play. Second half was a much better reflection of t...

Big NRL final tomorrow I have been watching most of the games this season and enjoyed it, hopefully the Penrith Panthers will come good.
As I said just above, not a big fan of either club but also looking forward to it.
Sadly, as a league as a whole, the Aussie game is so far ahead of SL.

Wow what a performance by Wigan this evening as they annihilate a sorry Salford.
