Quote: Starbug "Heritage ? , the sport only started 18 years ago
Yes, I remember when Neil Fox was the greatest points scorer of all time but Sky seem to be doing a great airbrush job on the true greats of the game.
rlYork City Knights are set to host their very own 'Heritage round' when they take on Hunslet Hawks on Sunday 18th August, as they take to the field in the iconic colours that the newly inducted hall of famers wore with distinction for York RL over the years...rl
39110_1363272058.jpgDropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good

sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate

the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever

Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

We already have one at Wigan. They have been really succesful in the past.
19k against Crusaders in 2011
19k against Bradford in 2012
Expecting 20k this year against the Giants.
I would certainly be for making it a Super League wide event. I would open and close the season with heritage rounds. Reverse the fixtures second time around so each club gets the benefit of a big home game.
Still, the RFL still don't seem to be really active with their marketing, sure they have some nice artwork to promote, but that alone won't get people in.
