Re: Walters on the bench
I don't like swapping Walters for nsemba. If Walters proves his worth I think serious consideration needs to be given to a Walter nsemba second row. It's a tough call for Peet to make though. I doubt we'll see it this season. But what an attack that would make

Re: Wigan squad for Hull KR (Semi-Final)
That's a point proven by the forwards. And they needed to do it, we were well beaten by KR last time out and that sets the record straight. A great performance in a match that means something. It bodes well for the playoffs.

Re: Albert Goldthorpe Medal Standings after 11 rounds of Super League
Also MOS used to be dominated by forwards, mainly second row, loose and hookers if I remember correclty. A lot of credit was given for workrate (or coming on for 20 minutes a match in the case of Roby vs Trent :x ). Looks like that era is over, and the stand out players are going to be mostly creati...

Re: “If I was in the job earlier” – Head of Referees confirms popular change for Super League 2025
Captains challenge - no problem, I like it. Live tries being given and then checked in the background - slightly confusing when they are denied after being clearly given, but OK. Live tries being disallowed and then what, being checked as play continues, then pulled back and given? Very confusing an...

Re: Super League in talks over staging regular season games in USA
Its a waste of time to bring a SL game to US. The sport has decided it won't allow any clubs from the US to join the league so why bring a SL game over here? The WCC has a bit more logic to it being a neutral venue for the game and potentially raising the profile of NRL and SL in one go. Now we have...

Re: BBC coverage questioned after underwhelming viewing figures
BBC may get the feeds and have their own producer I suppose, but I doubt it, they probably take the feed from the sky producer.

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.
