Re: 'Relegate bottom team' Leigh Leopards owner Derek Beaumont's Hull FC dig and Toulouse promoted reveal

It is difficult having a no jeopardy rule for a number of years as each year a different club would be relegated and then depending on the number of years, you could have a club finishing in the top 8 and in a play off spot getting relegated as those below are on a no relegation rule. The one good ...

Re: BBC coverage questioned after underwhelming viewing figures

One problem is that they space out the games by weeks so you never know if one is on or not. If you're not a big fan of the game, you won't become one because its hardly ever on - you would have to seek it out, rather than knowing that there's probably a game you can watch on a saturday afternoon or...

Re: 'Relegate bottom team' Leigh Leopards owner Derek Beaumont's Hull FC dig and Toulouse promoted reveal

Can't disagree with promotion and relegation - why change it? I just assumed, judging by the way they're recruiting, Wakefield back in SL was a done deal. Changing it is down to pro vs semi-pro, finance and timing. The promoted team can't compete even if they have the money because they've been pla...

Re: Liam Byrne receives suspension ahead of Challenge Cup semi-final showdown

He's got the build to be a good un. All he needs to do is get that tackle technique 6 inches lower.

Re: Liam Byrne receives suspension ahead of Challenge Cup semi-final showdown

Well, I'm not cheering about a two-match ban but I still think that if it had happened say, 15 minutes later, it might have been a red. It really didn't look good at all. However, the disciplinary doesn't look great when Makinson (who I rather like as a player) but has form in this area, gets a one...

Re: WILLIE PETERS SIGNS NEW HULL KR DEAL

I was imagining that he'd be off to one of the NRL clubs before the end of this season TBH.

Re: Liam Byrne receives suspension ahead of Challenge Cup semi-final showdown

Move Ellis back to prop as Saturday and then use Walters as a sub and move O'Neill to loose forward, again as Saturday. Or just play Harvey Hill on the bench and change nothign else maybe? Why? It worked in the second half on Saturday, must be something Matty Peet is thinking about. Plus Byrne was ...

Third of the season gone

How have we done in the first third of the season? What's your rating now and how would it change if we lose against Hull KR? Personally I think we're on track for retaining the SL trophy but it's a knock out at the end of the day so it's always up and in the air. I would hope we could get to wmeble...

Re: London v Hull (spoiler alert)

Well done the broncs. I thought they'd missed their chance against cas early, but it's great they won one.
