Re: Game Sold Out?

Last Good Friday we were told that the attendance was down because the North Stand wasn't specified seating, you got a ticket and could sit wherever. Then the story was that there were hundreds of broken seats that the previous owners could not afford to replace so was doubly surprised and disappoin...

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

In the ground the MOTM was Harry Smith. On the BBC it was given to French. On here fans seem to have given it to Ellis. I have only been able to watch the short version on Sky Misx and there was no mention of who Sky picked, can anyone say who gave it to?

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

Back in the dim and distant past, well the 1980s before the Sky cameras, if there was a big game at Headingley my teenage sons and I would often go to stand in the South Stand to watch the game with no particular bias, other than always wanting Leeds to beat Stains, after one match as we were coming...

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

I’ve not watched it back yet but watching it live l also thought Kade Ellis was absolutely magnificent, never taking a backward step, repeatedly taking the ball into heavy contact without being bullied, and tackling anything that was in reach even when he must have been out on his feet. I also thin...

BBC Breakfast.

Nice to see Matt and Bevan on the sports slot on this programme. I liked Matts comment that there is lots of hype around the 6 Nations ( really only 5 as Italy dont count) but if they watched the match on the television this weekend they would see faster more exciting rugby. BBC doing active promoti...

Re: Thompson

Thought Smith was looking at a red card to be honest but thought they're keeping him on for next week. I am just hoping that the Disciplinary just add on a large fine otherwise it will be a 3 match ban. Stupid tackle in this day and age.

Re: Hull FC v Hull KR

Having watched the Hull game on Sky last night I have to say that Wigan nilling Hull in the friendly begins to look not quite as impressive. Hull were woeful.

Re: Zak Hardaker found guilty of drink driving again with Leigh Leopards star banned

A leopard never changes its spots .🫢 That is the saying we all know but I wish to be pedantic here Green Machine. A Cheetah has spots, a Leopard has spots within spots and actually they are called flowers. Sorry 8 years in Africa and spending many hours game spotting with what at the time were two ...
