    2019 Super League

    Pretty sweeping statement but I can't recall too many times where a defending champion's start to the season hasn't been affected by the silly timing of the wcc. Clearly affected Leeds during their yoyo 2015-2018

    2019 Super League

    There have only been 10 breaches in the superleague era and Wigan are responsible for 3 of them. Wouldn't think that would go in their favour.

    Leeds sign Trent Merrin

    Particularly given Penrith are continuing to pay his salary. Pretty shrewd signing by Mr Hetherington and Sinfield

    Golden Boot 2019

    Assuming that's sarcasm. Must only be a handful of players in the last 50years reach that number

    Golden Boot 2019

    Anything that embarrasses Australia's derisory attitude to international RL gets my vote

    WCC news

    Correct. Vs $9.6M available for the Roosters to spend on their 2019 squad. Incomparable really

    WCC news

    Just throwing this out there - Much is made of salary cap breaches in the NRL, and rightly so. But does that mean that the only way this game has a credible level playing field is by enforcing the Roosters to field a team limited by the salary cap of Wigan and SL? I make that $5.6 Australian...

    Super league 2018

    Despite failing to dominate superleague?

    Middle 8’s

    Yeah it's championship Grand Final winner that goes up

    Middle 8’s

    Great middle 8s, and a nonsense that they are getting rid. First time for a long while there has been genuine interest in games outside the top 4 at this stage of the season. What's the deal with stadium requirements? SL have previously talked at length at the requirement of facilities of...

    Super 8's Fixtures/Results

    That's because of the standard of the league, not the system they are playing to, in my opinion. Apply an 8's concept to this years final NRL table and you've got the makings of an exciting competition. Clearly no obvious solution in the current climate but today's vote is a blatant power grab...

    Catalans Dragons

    Yeah there should totally be a team in Paris, Remi. Let's call them Paris St Germain. What could possibly go wrong? :rolleyes:

    Catalans Dragons

    Recently estimated at 200k due to untracked change in exchange rate. It's a tricky one, because as I mentioned it can go the other way too. If they have to start considering Canadian dollars too, it could get messy

    Catalans Dragons

    Interesting point regarding Catalans current benefit from the salary cap. Works both ways, of course, but it might be an overlooked aspect of expansion to countries that use different currencies.

    Rumoured Signings

    Big final payout after winning a bucket load of trophies in England. Total no brainer

    Leeds sack McDermott

    Would have been much easier to replace the medical and support staff. All Mac has shown is he struggles to coach sides with 8-12 first team players missing. Otherwise he coaches to silverware. V disappointed with this decision

    Super league structure 2019 super 8s gone

    RFL denies Super League claims of confirmed structure changes from 2019 - http://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-league/44468711

    Super league structure 2019 super 8s gone

    Don't play well throughout the season and you get dragged into a battle for superleague status. No surprise big clubs voted against this. Look at Leeds this season. Start losing games and the next few look critical. 1 up 1 down would mean there is now zero to play for. Yet again a stupid...

    Super league 2018

    Might be too early to say but for the first time in his career, Kal Watkins might be getting early ball. Decent start at 7 from Myler. Hull youth looking v good too.

    WCC news

    Case of VB for Leeds, 1000 brown paper bags for storm :grin:. I don't think this is made public. NRL side is usually paid to participate in uk, regardless of result so who knows what they have arranged here. NRL cap is now over double that of superleague. Yet another issue with this concept. I...
