Re: Saints announce increased losses for financial year 2023

The other point and i know this is a non starter but the removal of fighting and the removal of the physical aspect of the game also doesnt help the cause, people dont like sports where the ref's have too much of a say I dunno about that. In rugby union, the ref blows his whistle every 10-15 second...

Re: Saints announce increased losses for financial year 2023

Sky have shown they are willing to spend money if the demand and viewership is there. At the end of the day Sky are a business, will act in their best interest and it isn’t upto them to grow the sport. Any fingers being pointed should be at the RFL and Super League teams leadership/owners. I think ...

Re: Saints announce increased losses for financial year 2023

Totally agree, the way the game is and always has been run by the RFL, they have absolutely no idea how to promote the game. The addition of IMG has not raised awareness of the game outside of the RL community. The only apparent thing that IMG have done, is bring in a spurious grading system, proba...

Re: Saints announce increased losses for financial year 2023

You've got to ask yourself how economically viable Rugby League is for the next 5-10 years Saints are one of the big 4 names in the sport, they have their own stadium and they are feeling the heat. The salary cap in its static guise is becoming less and less viable for young people coming through to...

Re: Penalty Stats

Whats probably most interesting is 13% (22) of all our penalties this season where committed by Harry Smith In fact he is the leading the penalty table for the league Other members of the top 20 are Liam Farrell (15) and Brad O'Neill (12) I know its not this simple but if you remove Harry's penaltie...

Re: Why, why, why???

But its a Charity kit isnt it? or 3rd kit therefore agnostic of home/away allocation? But that is my point. If you buy a 'charity' shirt the charity normally gets less than £10 from the sale. Keep your old shirt and if you really want the charity to benefit send them a chq, that's old fashioned lik...

Re: Why, why, why???

The 'moaning" is that we simply don't play in our home kit enough. The club colours are cherry and white and we should play in them as much as possible. Away kits should be saved for when we are playing away to teams who wear similar colours to us to avoid kit clashing. I'm not bothered about ...
