    Super League Round 5 Results

    Christ! A triple post, you must've been tired. Needless to say, agree with most (all?) if what you say.

    Super League Round 5 Results

    Are leigh going to get an average crowd over 5k this season? Probably. Are they likely to get crowds of a few k if playing in the NL1? Probably. While a crowd of 4000 in a flagship competition when paying full time players is embarassing and unhelpful for the sport and the club, getting 2/3k...

    WHAT A MATCH!!

    Aye, wasn't particularly high standard of rugby, but for general drama and excitement, it was GREAT!

    Super League Round 1 Results

    Bradford tried. But the big hope for this season, Ryan Hudson at hooker, is suspended pending dope tests/hitting coach, depending on who you ask. We'll definitely make the six, possibly top 3, but it's going to be a rocky season. Ah well, this way it'll be more exciting! In the game...

    Leeds Rhinos - W w w w WOW!!!

    Bradford's were up 20% on the equivalent time the previous year at the end of November, which can only be a good thing for Bradford.

    Foreign quotas illegal - effects on ESL?

    Still is a quota, but 'Kolpak' players are exempt, for example south sea islanders. The quota stands at three. There are good young british players coming through at stable, well off clubs. It is the smaller clubs, desperate to stave off relegation, for example, that pick 3rd rate Aussies...

    Fakir still with UTC

    Isn't that the whole point? Well, that and trying to boost a bit of interest. Actually, I do wonder exactly what the point is in having a French team in Super League is. I don't disagree,but I'm not sure what the real reasoning behind the club is.

    Overseas player quota

    Used to be after 5 years, now no longer applied for new players, but anyone who was under the quota on the 5 year residency thing when it stopped being policy still doesn't count. If that makes sense? I've had a long day :(

    Fox Sports Rumour

    Doh! Forgot all about Meyers... Oh well was nearly there. It'd be a shame to see Robbie go but, well... he had a crap one last season, he's carrying plenty of injuries and he's not getting any younger. Not sure where he'll go though.

    Fox Sports Rumour

    Swann's moved to Warrington; Robbie Paul goes by an old rule no longer in force that once you've been playing for 5 years in the UK you no longer count on the quota; Kohe-Love is under the same rule I think; Vainikolo is a Kolpak player as far as I know: he doesn't count because the EU have an...

    The real World Game

    I reckon Rugby League has improved by 327% give or take one or two.

    The real World Game

    Aye. I've had more than just a few conversations with people when I've said I enjoy rugby and they've looked at me a bit blankly, then I've mentioned it's RL and they've said, 'Ahhh, rugby league, now you're talking!' I wonder how many people have been put off our game because they've seen...

    USA Tomahawks

    As an outsider it does seem pretty impressive, but I've no idea what it's like 'on the ground' out there. I reckon RL could carve out a nice niche market there and at least be self sustaining and stable in the medium/long term. Sadly I doubt we'll ever see the day the USA becomes a 'big' rugby...

    New Look GB for 05

    I've always wondered why Breirs hasn't been given more of a shot at international level. I've not seen him play much but have he's always impressed when I have seen him. His stats on this link might explain something though! :lol:

    Codecs

    Hello. There's no reason anyone should know but... I'm trying to watch the NRL Grand Final on the NRL site. When I try to watch it with Mozilla, it plays it in windows media player 6.4, and doesn't seem to have the correct codec to play back video and can't download it automatically. If I...

    Any POMs want an avatar bet??

    Hey, I'm no convert :P Will be changing my avatar as soon as allowed. One more week yet tho :( It must get boring seeing your team win every goddamn competition! Wouldn't mind gettin' myself down to Oz to watch some club footy though, but I guess I'd better finish Uni and make some money...

    Roos v T-Hawks - Thoughts

    Yeh, but it wasn't under test rules, with small pitches, unlimited interchange etc... Maybe one for the future though?

    Look at what 1 tri nations has accomplished!

    Didn't soccer already have huge grassroots support participation though? Correct me if I'm wrong but I doubt RL would have the same springboard to success. :(

    Full game details - USA v Aus

    Good Luck! Wish I could be there to lend vocal support, and maybe see a team stand toe to toe with the aussies :roll: Sadly am a few thousand miles due east.
