Re: Tomkins for England RU!

Why anyone would compare RL against RU is ridiculous and my posts are just as objective as any. It's just that anyone who tries to be is deemed to be anti RL which of course is a nonsense... Like the old saying "There are non so blind as those who will not see"

Re: Tomkins for England RU!

Conflict for the family, Sam in Huddersfield or Joel in Twickenham. Could this be unique, brothers playing for England on the same day at the same time one in Rl and one in RU? In spite of any conflict they must feel extremely proud, well done Mr&Mrs Tomkins :eusa2:
