Here are a couple of RL related ones for you to get stuck into :) 1. all time favourite Wigan team (of wiganers who played for Wigan) 2. all time favourite Wigan team (anyone that has...

Re: The rest of the season

Social distancing is not primarily about "putting yourself at risk". It's about preventing a spike in cases that would overwhelm the NHS. A RL team consists of young, fit players. As close to zero risk as you can probably get. Unlike the spectator fan base........... Young people are in f...

Re: Players bans

Does anyone know what will happen with Ben Flower and Partingtons bans at this rate they could carry on until next season. yes they will still stand as they are x no of game bans, so if they have missed 1 game out of a 3 game ban, they will miss the next 2 once SL starts up again. if we were like R...

Re: Benny

good to see Ben hurting and has the fight to want a starting 13 shirt back. IMO no-one has a divine right to a starting spot / shirt, they need to work for it and earn the right. If Al saw that Bens performances werent up to the reward of the no 10 shirt, then he needs to earn that back by impressin...

Re: Zak Hardaker/Gaz Hock

Just, belatedly, watched the awards evening. I understand he was cut a reasonable amount of slack (irony) at the time, but, if Gaz Hock had had the support Zak H had, what a player he would have been for club and country. I'm a great fan of his, so I'm obviously biased, but do you thing the extra a...

Re: GB v NZ 3rd test Spoiler

I don't disagree with what is being said It might not be popular and you could point out that it is damaging the International game BUT I think any player that moves to the NRL should no longer be eligible for international selection Yes. That means no more Bateman but we need to disincentivise pla...

Re: Rugby League Ashes returning and England’s newest stadium to host

As much as I want to go to these games, I’m angry that massive games for our sport are being held at football grounds AGAIN 🤬 much as i agree Josie i think if we are to grow the game and attract bigger crowds then we need to use football grounds. i mentioned on a post recently about GB that i was u...
