    Did Anyone See Catalans Going 14-1 ?

    Catalan missing a few players today. Lots of young French players got a game. Laguerre, Rouge, Dezaria et al all looked very good. Future is bright in Perpignan. But it is in St Helens too. Lewis Dodd looks a cracking prospect.

    Richardson proposes drastic redesign of European RL

    Yep. Richardson can poke his nose out. No interest in hearing anything from him.

    Australia and New Zealand withdraw from RLWC

    That last post tells you everything you need to know about the NRL/ARLC and their media pawns. A bunch of absolute liars.

    Did Anyone See Catalans Going 14-1 ?

    I don't think they are playing particularly well at the moment either; yet still winning. Great resilience. Pleasing to see.

    Australia and New Zealand withdraw from RLWC

    Disgusted by these actions; absolutely disgusted. Nothing more than a shameless power grab.

    Australia and New Zealand withdraw from RLWC

    I'd move to Australia then if I was you; it looks like they'll be staying at home for the foreseeable future. A factor of life is risk; and how it is managed. If it can be mitigated (and everything we have seen/heard from the organisers suggests they have with COVID), you tolerate and take that...

    Australia and New Zealand withdraw from RLWC

    COVID numbers dropped significantly over the last week in the UK. Still high but moving in the right direction. But its becoming quite clear the vaccination programme has broken the current link between cases and hospitalisations/deaths.

    Your Top 5 Players In Super League At The Moment

    In no particular order: Morgan Knowles Toby King Jordan Abdull Daryl Clark Regan Grace All great to watch. Not necessarily the best players but definitely entertaining.

    Australia and New Zealand withdraw from RLWC

    Cases in the UK dropped again today to 36k. 5th day in a row. Evidence looking like the UK has broken the back of the infections vs hospitalisations ratios as well through vaccination.

    Thanks for the warning!

    Match Thread: PNG vs GB

    In your opinion. Clarke is a better hooker. So is Roby (but sadly on his last legs). Lomax was outstanding at stand off for Saints all year but gets shoved to fullback by Bennett. Williams was good in last year's Series win over New Zealand. Smithies coming through at Wigan is an excellent young...

    Match Thread: PNG vs GB

    First name I'd be getting rid of would be Hodgson. His style of play does not work at this level with this group of players. His attempts to control everything hinders his halfbacks and his distribution is far too slow. GB have looked better when Clarke has been on the field during this tour. It...

    England to revive mid-season Test in 2020?

    No club is going to want to play a SL/Championship game whilst missing 4-5 players.

    England to revive mid-season Test in 2020?

    The SL/Championship clubs wouldn't allow it. England have to already resort to 3 x players per club. So further players from clubs simply won't work.

    England to revive mid-season Test in 2020?

    Only option IMO. Sadly nothing works up here in the northern hemisphere as France are not interested and the other nations are too weak. Cost should be irrelevant. And sustainability isn't an issue as you have a number nations available to play. If England want to develop cohesion, it's an...

    How pointless were the 'GB Lions' and this Tour

    Plenty of young talent in England; but they need to be gradually phased into the national set up. However, Bennett (and Sinfield) have not got it right on this tour (I appreciate it's not England). There are a few players injured who'd have certainly been in the squad like Makinson, Johnstone...

    Wales Lionhearts v Lithuania Replay

    I have played with a few of the Lithuanian team; good to see them join the international party.

    Alex Walker is the Scotland full back; he played for London last year.

    GB Lions Tour on sale today + Eden Park schedule confirmed

    There are a number of wingers available who could (and should) have been selected rather than about 5/6 halfbacks. Charnley, J Burgess, Evalds, Grace et al (even Rhys Williams!) could all over stepped up... throw in the fact they left it too late to call up Handley has left the team in this...

    Northern hemisphere what is it doing ?

    I agree with the bit in bold. Less so about the England vs Celtic Series idea as it'll have little impact IMO other than giving a run out to the England team. The real issue is investment and development. That would be better focussed in the right places rather than randomly...
