Beer (or something) was raining down during the big melee. I assumed this was Wire fans. They really do have some head-bangers. But their team look impressive. But as said, the Giants really didn't offer much.

Surely the beak will have something to say about the assault on Field? I imagine a few HKR players will be in trouble.

If Peters has a dispute with the match officials he should go through the normal channels not the media. This stuff reminds me of John Monie's view that coaches should "only complain about the referee when you've won" Absolutely. I think Lewis is a good player, and he had a decent game. H...

As Josie says, it's fine if you're getting a freebie ticket and flight! And if games must be played in the US, can't they f...

I just watched them get fairly comfortably beaten by London Broncos.
