| Quote: thebloodbath "As much as it pains me to agree, the Bulls have a strong case. I wonder if the Quins share similar feelings? Rather than having a fixture pile up, a re-arranged game with the Bulls would sort the problem out, but they would have to forfeit the Manley game. The RFL will ideally like Manley to have a run-out trial game against SL opposition, as it acts a useful tool to show that NRL are taking the WCC seriously. But if Quins do dodge the game, what about the leftovers from last week? Wigan or Wakie, as they should have a free week. They may fancy taking them on, I mean when would they get another opportunity? Manley may see Wigan as worthy opposition and Wakefield would fit logistically.'"
Uvavu. The Wigan v Wakey game was rearranged from Round 17, so they would not have a free week at an appropriate time. Moving their game in Round 2 (week 3) would just mean another club having Bradford's fixture congestion instead. |

Eranu!!
I'm easily confused!! So what about Wakie?? Do they have a free week now? They may fancy taking them on. |

Wakey will have a fixture when Manly are in the country. They will be free in Week 18 (Round 17) but that isn't much help for the purposes of this friendly!

Any chance you could follow his lead? |

Why cant we play quins on the wed or thrus of that week, why should we have to have a fixture congestion just so quins can play a friendly, if anyone should be put out its them.
If we play kr on the sunday, then quins on the wed/thur it means they play sunday, wed/thurs, sunday..if its only a friendly doesnt have to be their best 17.

| Quote: ritz "if its only a friendly doesnt have to be their best 17.'" if quins/rfl want (new)fans to turn up, then yes it does.
i'm guessing that the whole point in them playing quins is to try attract some of the aussies living in london, and generally increasing rugby league awareness in the capital. |

Why not just make it really interesting and have all 3 teams playing in a tournament with 'winner stays on?'
That would suit everybody!

Emma, That's brilliant!
I think Quins were originally going to play Manly on the thursday. I'm led to believe it was switched to the weekend by the RFL, as a way of promoting the game in London. Had the weather not been bad last week the Bradford game would have gone a head. Quins have been promoting the game and tickets have been on sale for a while.
If you read the thread on the Quins board, you'd get the impression that it's already cost Bradford the grand final!

Looks like Bradford making excuses for a possible poor season already to me. Although i agree that a friendly isnt as important as a league game i dont think theyd be making as big a song and dance about this if the weather hadnt affected last weeks game

winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
