Well said Dave O Rather than Brexit being the root cause of this pandering to racists, I think it's more to do with previous years of this appalling Conservative government, with primary responsibility belonging to the outgoing PM, who created the "hostile environment" towards all immigran...

Despite his kicking, which has always been poor, on today's performance I think Tommy Leuluai is our only player who seems to have any idea what to do on attack. The rest were headless chickens again, not least Williams and O'Loughlin. A good point was Farrell's performance (we will have to forgive ...

Mike As other posters have suggested - he gave the Sarginson try because he had just been slammed by the pundits for disallowing the first one. I'm not saying they want to disallow EVERY try, but doing it for a substantial portion of them fits the agenda. And the BBC are just aping Sky's style, tryi...

In my opinion this refs decision was perfectly rational, and has nothing to do with Robert Hicks' competence or lack thereof! Why do I think that? Because what we just saw was the logical outcome of rugby league selling its soul to the television sport industry in the early 1990s. What did Sky expec...

On the subject of "mental health issues" I was interested to read Hardakers revelation that he has a diagnosis for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. He was at pains to point out he is not using this as an excuse for past behaviour, but actually it explains quite a lot. The latest t...

Slightly going off at a tangent here, but it's worth noting that the attendance beat that of two years ago, and that bucks the trend for big occasions lately. As somebody who travels from Oldham to the games, I thought the unusual kick off time on a Sunday was a real bonus with little traffic on the...

Another beer throwing incident during the WCC match. This time a patron in the East Stand decided to launch a full can of beer at the Sydney goalkicker as he was preparing for the conversion to the last try. I remember when Colin Tyrer used to aggravate the life out of home and away supporters alike...

I wasn't too disappointed overall, but the most obvious areas where Sydney were superior were the halves and hooker. Of course we already knew that, and as others have posted, Lam really must consider introducing Sammut and Leuluai to hooker. The last tackle kicks were poor again, especially the one...

I was a little disappointed with both attack and defence, but I suppose we need to be patient. I liked Lam's post match comment, when he said the players "reverted to type" when under stress at St Helens, and this in effect meant they defaulted into playing in the "old style" whi...
