Where were you when I was i nyear 7 five years ago?! I love playing. I played last year in Yr 11 at good old Standish High. They wanted us to play tag but we said "Let us play tackle" - we did, and dare I say, we were all good, we all enjoyed the roughness of the game and I would jump through hoops to get a chance to play again. Maybe I'm passed it at 17.

If you are past it at 17 it doesn't leave much hope for the rest of us. If you really want to play i think there is a ladies team somewhere in warrington but don't know of any details.

Haha well I hope I'm not past it.

Although I think I need to curb my teenage-junk-food eating routine!

Really? Hmm I should check that out. What I'd give to play again, I don't remember having as much fun doing sport at school, badminton and football excepted. Cheers mate.

Wow I thought women's rugby was a rare diamond in the rough. I am pleasantly surprised. Although if this team are winners, I doubt I'll be good enough.

Girls playing rugby league? What a good idea I think that Girls/woman should have equal rights to boys/men

EQUAL RIGHTS FOR WOMEN? I remember years ago when women were "burning their bras" and it was all about women's lib, one of my male colleagues was spouting about equal rights for women, to which I replied that we women didn't want equal rights. After all, I said, why should we bring ourselves down to their level!!!! (Don't be misled by my name "Ron", just in case you're wondering!!)
