Quote: GARFORTH LAD "The first thing the game needs to do is to get back on track, lets get back to local derby's played in the Rugby League heartlands, Featherstone Leigh, Hunslet, Whitehaven, Halifax etc, places you can drive to in an hour. Get rid of London, Wales, Catalan !!!!'"

Yes, London and Catalans too but no-one need go to those if they don't wish to. I've heard and read many reasons why RL isn't in the shape it might be but a lack of local derbies and too much travelling slightly stretches credulity.
