18th club, whose next?

An Englishman flaming someone who is indigenous to this country, and referring to 'race riots'
I'd take the f**ker down inside two seconds if he was in front of me.

Im sure you would, 30 years ago probably not. But hey I might get a good one in early. Want to to meet at the aquarium? lol

 

[Wb1234]

yeh never go to ground! Thats what my grandad taught me. He was ex North sea trawlerman, fists like clubs and a temper to match!
Playing RL in Hull was an experience. After the third all in abandoned match in a row I packed it in and took up american football! RL games on Orchard Park where something else! Between dodging glass and needles on the pitch and headbutts in the tackles, with the odd death threat in the car park thrown in it wasnt for the faint hearted!

Threepenny stand sounded epic

any stories ?

 

[Wb1234]

I actually had a good two days in hull

the derby is one of the most amazing games of rugby league I’ve been to in my life

then I was feeling homesick I was alone in a pub and I looked at some board and it was a list to hull kr and hull fc greats and it made me feel less homesick

 

[Pneuma]

Someone from Cronulla, telling a migrant to "go back to where you came from" unironically is like Matthew Johns calling someone a f**k boy.

If you say so

30 years ago it would have been one second.
I've gotten slow.

Please PM me before you get stuck in. I have to watch that….just for giggles

If you did you’d have to wash your hands afterwards. He’s dirty. Poms don’t wash.

Yeh many lol. Talk about tribalism! So Im from a West Hull Hessle Road family but in 1980 stuck with my East HUll cousins from the other side and hung my hat on the East side clubs mast for Wembley. Walking to Boulveard for derby games I had to walk on the other side of the road to my family lol
The scariest was the infamous Easter Derby game there. It kicked off big time. I was only mid teens but there was running battles everywhere, bricks and bottles flying , I got a cut under the eye from a flying 50p piece (kept it though ) It was full on crazy! Fortunatley apart from that mid to late 80's period it rarely was that bad for violence. Probably only realy other scary time was at Thrum Hall in Hallifax when we were attacked outside the ground. That was just insane and people were being carted off in ambulances, tear gas the whole works.
Compared to what Ive seen outside Boothferry stadium at the soccer though Rl was tame!

Hulls one of them strange places, salt of the earth people who'd give you the coat of their back if you were desperate but rough as hell and can be incredibly violent when it kicks off.

Any we digress.

Apologies Bubby mate, didnt mean to cause offence and if I took it too far I sincerely apologise. We are all Rl fans at end of day. I hope one day you can all get to Perth for an NRL game and I'll shout the beers!

Yeh it is something else. 1980 Wembley was my first ever RL game! You can imagine what that was like. When we got back into SL I flew back to Hull just to go to the first derby game at Craven Park. I had tears stood in the East stand I don't mind telling you as I thought Id never see another one given the state of my club when I left.
Its why I have every sympathy for Bears fans. Ive been there and its not nice. I cant blame them for wanting their club back in NRL by hook or by crook.

Look I know I can be a pain and argumentative and at times go too far. Always happy to apologise, and I mean it, if I upset someone. But I'm actually a really nice guy, a mad Rl fan and lots of fun to have a beer with, especially the more I have lol.
Like I said Id love nothing more than a local NRl club to be passionate about and be part of and would love nothing more than sharing a beer at HBF park with you all.

soccer no other sport matter

you know in the 1900 Manchester was a rugby town

much of northern England was rugby

then soccer just took over

still league is run by donkeys

Why do Fox not seem keen on a Perth team?
New TV time slot, new metro market, large potential fanbase etc.
Doesn’t make sense.

Why would they want their biggest cash cow to grow any cojones? You keep them thinking small and you keep them under control.

We dont know they don’t tbf.

Besides we are in a great position given what happened with afl tv deal to go where we want to go strategically to grow the game and f**k what fox Wants.
The rights value will be driven by how much competition there is not where club 18 is. It could be in singapore and it won’t matter! The price will be determined by whose bidding and how badly they want it against their competitor.
get three bidders fighting each other and we will hit $500mill plus regardless of location of club 18.

Beers.

Why they pay afl overs keep rugby league powerless

but they did kill off Perth before

They’re doing a pretty good job of that on their own at the moment!
