Looks like the London SL 'Project' will continue to depend on the 'charitable' support of David Hughes with 'significant announcements' due soon?!

Heaven forbid the RFL should take a strategic view and put in significant, sustained, targeted and cost effective investment in both playing staff and more importantly in my view in a professional approach to PR, Marketing and Profile building in the capital.

As for yet another 'restructuring' feels to me like moving the chairs on the Titanic! Don't tell me the whole sport in the UK isn't in serious trouble when Hull V Warrington in the semi final of our most 'historic' and eminently promotable competition scrapes together a crowd of just over 10,000 - lamentable

Where have you heard this mate?!

I'd say no, I'd rather have Tomkins, Charnley, Goulding, Thornley & Richards to be honest.

You forgot the

Joker

I'd take Charnley over BJB and Tomkins over pretty much anyone in SL. Wouldn't contemplate any other swapsies though.

Charnley is not fit enough to sniff BJB farts.

I would take Charnley over Hall on this season`s form.
I see Singleton`s been sacrificed for the un dropable Kirke this week

Sorry no specific link to post but I heard (well read) this on Twitter via Ian Ramsdale (Journalist/Broadcaster) during the week leading up to the semi final debacle

A lot of Wigan's excellent structural plays put Charnley in for plenty of easy tries.Many games we have had this year Ryan Hall has fed off of scraps,and i cant imagine Charnley would have anymore tries than Ryan has if he was in our team.

Both are top class,but Hall is the complete winger IMO.

Hall is miles ahead of Charnley. Miles.

Charnley is slightly ahead of BJB, but not by much.

As for dropping Singleton and selecting Kirke, how very predictable. I feel for the lad. I may be over reacting in a Gotcha or Bywater stylee but if wouldn't blame him if he wasn't ringing the NZ warriors and joining his mates.

I have to say I agree. Although I've not seen the last couple of games by all accounts Kirke has been poorer than usual. He undoubtedly has a place in the squad, but at the moment I think that Singleton offers more.

Good grief, just slightly.

Maybe he needs a rest? I don't think he's been fully fit for a few rounds now. With Bailey back we can afford to do that.

But no, let's blame the coach/club as per usual.

Have to agree.only reason i could possibly think of to leave Singleton out for Kirke is that he was carrying a knock recently IIRC and maybe its just precautionary.

We will have to see in the coming weeks but IMO Singleton should now be in the 17 every week even with players back fit, and should certainly be ahead of Kirke in the pecking order.
