Well you got to remember who pays you before you rebel.

Foley impressed by enthusiastic Beale

Beale has been outstanding here in his time at Wasps. The Lions had a great back 3 which was as good as the NZs and could have won. If the Aus can find another to compliment Beale and Foleau they may have a chance against a not so great kiwi side. They need some muscle up in the front 5 though to make it happen and that’s the connumdrum.

Correct.

Toronto Wolfpack bring a new era to rugby league

Got to admit Perez has that PR gift of telling people what they want to hear. The chap could sell ice to Canadians.

Toronto Wolfpack bring a new era to rugby league

Time for a reality check. Bradford , the best supported club in SL for several years, has been allowed to fail. It is a dead Parrot . It is no more. Now we have on the horizon the fanciful Toronto who if some posters here are to be believed is the way forward. The lessons of the past debacles in Paris and London remain unabsorbed.

People that have a stake in this adventure should start to hear alarm bells ringing soon after this delusional offering by Mr Perez.

Most players expenses could be covered by Investing in a oneday travel card for them. You couldn’t make this up.

The Toronto Wolfpack: The world's first trans-Atlantic sporting team

As far as daft Ideas go the RFL have even bettered themselves .Looking at the player roster Toronto are as Transatlantic as mushy peas .

Get down to the Bookies and put a fiver on the Sweaties. Should be good odds.

2017 Six Nations preview

Half the team missing along with the coach. Seemed a costly Jolly that was thankfully scrapped.

England snub may make Bennett walk: Platt

Perhaps the Idea for this legislation is driven by a need to avoid litigation.

Rugby fans fume over new high tackle laws

Try watching old videos of games 30 years or more ago and you might notice that brutality and casual violence was part of rugby. Times change and attitudes to safety Improve . This rule change might work and one day people will be aghast at the current big high tackle brain rattling that is now almost seen as acceptable.

It might ,eventually, lead to a more open game. It also might be a refs nightmare trying to Interpret. Suck it and see .Can always spit it out.

Rugby fans fume over new high tackle laws

The stark reality is there are only 2 teams that England can play in any meaningful contest. That it would benefit the domestic game if England wins is true but hardly a panacea for all the problems of the Super League. The demise and liquidation of Bradford is an example of the sports bad management , especially when the farcical Introduction of a Canadian team , Toronto, with its roster of Yorshiremen is “Invented”.

England snub may make Bennett walk: Platt

The class division re rugby is much overstated by Parra. The difference is more geographical now that Union is professional. Leagues stagnation and frustration at its lack of expansion can be put down to its own Incompetence and mismanagement. Continuing to blame the “Toffs” at Twickers is an easy and self defeating way to deflect criticism .

Top player Meninga. The small pool of International teams to play andto prove he’s a great coach will make this article limited .

History beckons for masterful Meninga

Thank you Tommy. What’s needed is some sturdy English Draft horses to show them how to play proper.

Pocock full of praise for "incredible" All Blacks

Re the listening bug found in All Black Hotel. It takes an expert to tell the difference between a transmitting and a receiving device. They can in some cases be reversed. Given the appalling Wallaby line outs and general tactical nous of those dastardly NZ ers Im

Woeful Wallabies in dire need of refresh

I will be booking my flight for semi and final when I know where England go for semi. I’m fortunate enough to be able to late book. The Idea that this is an International tournament is delusional unless you think Western Sydney is the World. I wish the promoters of this “Global” Event would recognise that being a Rugby League supporter doesn’t make you a retard. My other team France will stand little chance against “Lebannon”s Australians and any notion this will promote growth of the game is making the same mistake of others who have heritaged the International game.

Nothing set in stone at RLWC: Who will make the finals

The reality that most Sydneysiders see about this RLWC is they will see a lot of NRL players Involved that have adopted a National team to play for. It’s a hard sell hence moving the games out of state.

Rugby League World Cup draw announced, with NSW served a serious snubbing

Might be time to get rid of line outs and scrums. Seems a way forward without constantly tweaking the rules. Oops it’s already been done. Wrong code.

NRC 2016 scoring system a move in the right direction

If the World Cup were held tomorrow England would win it. I expect Argentina to overtake Australia and South Africa in the rankings sooner than later. England have the momentum. The All Blacks are treading water and will surely fade like a Savea side step. Still every dog has his day .Yelp , Yelp.

England tightens grip on Ten Nations

The New Zealanders for all their talk of depth look like they are lacking in just that. A mediocre Wales side exposed them as what is going to become a very ordinary All Black team. They still score great tries but the All Blacks I predict will loose against Argentina this next time they play.

The Wrap: All Blacks improve while England “Rumble in the (sandy) Jungle”

The Australians will rue not putting the points on us when they had the chance and should have won. The 2nd test will be England’s .We didn’t start well in Brisbane but survived and will play better next time. If the Aus escape from a 3 nil rogering I’d be surprised.

Cheika ready to ring the changes as Wallaby beast awakens
