I'd imagine they were consulted.

Be interested to know whose idea this actually was - whether the distributors of Man of Steel have approached the RFL and both clubs have been told it's happening, or the clubs have initiated it themselves.

Great to see this happening. Game undersells itself, so this is a big link up, even if only for 1 game.

It's only a big link up if Warner Bros get behind it and arrange some national media publicity outside the RL trade press and websites.

If the only people who know it's happening are existing RL fans, then the only winners out of it are WB who get free publicity for the DVD/Blu Ray.

You know what you're right.

It's only Warner Bros & a symbol recognisable worldwide that's on the shirts of two Super League clubs.

Melbourne linked up through News & 21st Century Fox, Souths through Russell Crowe.

Have you any idea how precious Warner Bros are with allowing use of it's Superman logo?

Sam Tomkins interviewed Crowe & henry Cavill at the UK premiere. This was available to 10m Sky subscribers in the UK.

Warner Bros aren't in this to promote rugby league. it is up to rugby league to do that,

Still, it's better to knock & denigrate than talk up our own Supermen, eh??

Spot on

Got an email from the club this morning saying that the shirt will be delivered tomorrow - the day of the game + while I'm at work.

I will be going to the game straight from work so once again "well done Leeds Rugby for managing to fekk-up another shirt delivery"!

Could they not deliver it to your work?

It's already been dispatched for delivery according to the email.

The club is having the shirt delivered to the address you gave them. How is that a feck up?

When/where should they have delivered it?

The club shop staff deserve a lot credit for turning over 700 orders for the shirt round very quickly.

The shirts only arrived at Headingley late on Tuesday apparently.

Really - you have a very low expectations if you consider any credit is due - they have received close to £30k of revenue the least they can do is ensure the agreed delivery is achieved.

700? really?
thats a lot of suckers
