You mis-understand the general aim of business, unless you love the industry you're in enough to eat / sleep / breathe it, the general idea is to make a pile of cash to make you life comfortable.

If the players have got any sense, they'll have employees doing the day to day stuff whilst they train and deal with their rugby training etc. and just cream off the profit made from the venture.

Good luck to Disko ... Hopefully, he's got his company well enough established during the 'good' times to survive a possible housing price crunch that might be out there.

If Diskin merits entry into a [i'Hall Of Fame'[/i then make sure it's stipulated that it's exclusively a [i'RHINOS Hall Of Fame'[/i.

At least that way, there's a clear distinction between the celebration of solid and unspectacular Super League dross from the real stars of the game who exhibited real talent as LOINERS.

I mis-understand the aim of business. Wow. A bold statement that.

People we're simply questioning Diskins ability to put 100% into his rugby when he will have a very hectic lifestyle running his own business, I dismissed those suggestions, as to me the business seemed very small at that stage, small enough for him to concentrate on his rugby. At the moment as far as I am aware he is a one man band at present.
Sure Diskin is bright enough to realise at some point in the future he may need to take 1 or 2 staff members on, so he can carry on doing the job he loves and securing the extra income from that. That will be his ultimate aim, and that is where you start to reap in the rewards of taking the gamble of going into business.

On the contrary, employing 1 or 2 staff members is where you start to spend money that would have otherwise stayed in your pocket UNLESS they are dedicated to bringing in ADDITIONAL business to that which you have already managed yourself, if they are admin staff designed to make your life easier then they are emptying your wallet, nothing less.

One other point to bear in mind is that at the point where you employ someone to bring in ADDITIONAL business you automatically raise your professional rates to cover their additional overheads (which can be large) and in doing so may unintentionally price yourself out of the niche market that you established for yourself.

damn right. 4 championships, harry sunderland winner. pretty e wasn't he

Dude you really need to stop living in the past – top grade Professional Rugby League in this country resides in the Super League, live with it.

Or would you still hanker after them ‘good ol’ days’ when you could pay your way into a game, have a couple of pints, pie & peas, bit of a punch-up, bus home and still have change from a farthing?

Actually I’m a little surprised you’ve managed to get to grips with this new fangled tinternet thingy. I’m betting you went on one of those silver surfer courses that the council run after picking up a flyer in your local library while trying to keep warm because heating costs are ridiculous these days and the winter fuel allowance the Government gives you hardly covers gas let alone the electricity and you dare not put two bars on the fire – forget all three.

I'd love it if I could pay my way in couple of pints pie and peas and bus ride home with change from a farthing!!!!!!!

Buderus 'only' made 31 appearances out of a possible 35 during the 2010 season. Two fewer than Leeds' best (Senior and Hall) but the most by a Leeds forward (equal with Ian Kirke)

Hopefully the 'crock' tag can remain spurious at best next season as well.

His overall appearance record for his illustrious and highly decorated Leeds career, rather than a selective statistic, please?

Your allegiance to a substandard competition brought about as a mere afterthought by the conflict between two Australian media moguls fighting it out over who owns the TV rights to Australian RL, and brokered by a turf-side bookie with a comb-over and greasy palms from Wigan is truly laughable.

I'd expect nothing less than ignorance from anyone with an online moniker containing the letters r, h, i, n and o in consecutive sequence.

Wouldn't mind borrowing that book again matey.

As substandard and contrived as you believe Super League is it is the home of premier Rugby league in this country, hankering over days gone by will not bring those games, players or teams back.

You sound like some old dude that keeps going on about “what things were like back in the day”.

I think you’ll find that no matter how much you p[sizei[/sizess and moan about the standard of Super League that’s what we’ve got – live will it you hidebound giffer.



… as opposed to your online moniker that contains the letters r, h, i, n and o in a none consecutive sequence. Disguising the word RHINO in an anagram doesn't fool anyone my follicly challenged friend, you love the Rhinos don’t you?

4 days to reply to an email isn't such a good turnaround when trying to run a business.

Oo... do tell more.

I may have some business for him.
