    Why does t So what are the criteria for a week 3 stadia in you eyes? Are crowds in the National rugby league so large that we should reserve finals fixtures to be played at Homebush, Lang park or Moore park only? I think not. If Townsville is good enough for week 3 then so is Canberra and...

    Final 4 - Preferred Grand Final pairing?

    Canberra v Cronula by a mile. Although anyone but Melbourne will do

    Toulouse in League 1

    Agreed it's a game too far from the Rfl. they were unbeaten on 41 pts, 8 clear off Rochdale and +/- of 714! typical of the French to lose though they never do things the east way. they will play York in Toulouse next week which they should win and then play the winner of Barrow and...

    Yeah shocking. This is why I hate the model for league one. surely after a full season going unbearencandtopping the ladder you deserve to be promoted automatically. hopefully they recover and get through the upcoming games to get up anyway

    I do not understand how you can defend the Canberra (and Newcastle) situation in week 3 scenarios. if the next rule was games between Sydney and Queensland sides in week 3 must be played at Lang park to guarantee a crowd and therefore league revenue, imagine the whinging then. by comparison...

    You continue to try and justify Canberra not being able to host week 3 finals as if Sydney has some magical ability to produce crowds for neutral teams as it did 20 years ago. Not only have we got Sydney sides drawing very low crowds like the examples you gave above, but the double header was a...

    Cronulla v Canberra would be delightful.

    Fail to see how people can whinge about two regional stadia at 85-90% capacity when Sydney teams have dished up crowds under 20k in finals in recent years. perhaps ticket prices kept a few away, who knows and who cares as it looked great on TV.

    Come on Toulouse tonight. It's winner takes all versus Rochdale with the loser getting a second chance next week On a side note I really really don't like the promotion structure. It should be as simple as the league winner after 22 rounds going up with 2nd-5th in a playoff series for the...

    Ben Flower send off

    An each way bet if it's a send off in the NRL. One thing I love about super league is they are not afraid to use the send off and sin bin

    Good news. They deserve a bumper crowd for this one, hopefully 30k plus

    Out of interest how much would the clubs in league one spend on player payments and what would the other costs be like at that level? Obviously travel would be a big one

    We are all broken records on these forums spud. Both governing bodies continue to make blunders or no decisions in the case of the NRL to the frustration of many

    That is a ridiculous decision by the chairman at hemel. How does anyone come to the conclusion that is a good idea. a dual registration/feeder club would be acceptable to send some loan players down the country to strengthen their squad but to relocate training etc is ludicrous. surely the...

    Belle Vue for sale

    Reading between the lines they seem to have a verbal arrangement with the developer to build a stadiumd alongside the other developments. Hopefully it works out for the best, sick of seeing clubs becoming homeless at the whim of developers and councils or also through their own bad management.

    Do you think they will travel for it? Haven't heard of the stadia allocation yet any Idea which it will be homebush or SFS?

    2GB, ABC or Triple M, who do you listen to for your league coverage?

    Heard it as well. don't care what they do because I just won't listen to it. But yes the Nrl need to end the exclusivity and go for extensive coverage rather than an exclusive deal with a bit extra money. same situation the Central Coast, none of the Fm commercial stations carry Nrl calls but...

    Super 8's

    Is there a specific reason why the Rfl does not? What about London and Bradford they play in the academy leagues. Seems to me it's down to who want to and/or afford it Outside of superheated academies is it all amateur clubs for development?

    vb nsw cup

    This competition deserves more attention. Despite the odd venue and start time, how good is to see Newtown running around in prime time! I have enjoyed this more than any NRL game this weekend
