SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



Quote: vastman "Why are you totally obsessed with signing overseas players - have you not worked out yet that it’s British players we been to give a chance. Your attitude sums up all that’s wrong with British RL.

Also and I'll bite here, if you're seriously sugesting the Queensland Cup or the PNG league is close to SL standard then it's clear youre just trolling.

The PNG league doesn't even bare up to NL1, have you any idea what a small impoverished nation PNG actually is - get a grip.

The QC is lower end Championship. I know this because quite a few ex Wakefield Academy players play in it - these same players who couldn't get a game in SL. Jeez two years ago one of the teams had Sam Obst and Semi Tadulala in it - both were heading for forty and both had been let go by Wakefield and then Keighley Cougars yet these teams are equel to the Knights!

What gets PNG results is fervent home support, red hot temperatures and a core of NRL players.'"


Which is exactly what I was arguing on this thread.

Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "Game 2
PNG 32 - 22 England Knights

An all Super League England Knights squad have been defeated by a PNG squad made up largely of PNG based Queensland Cup players. This is a terrific result for PNG Rugby League.

PNG is a gold mine of Rugby League talent, there are so many potential Super League players, many on show today, our clubs would be foolish not to snap them up.'"


I’m sorry for a supposed English fan you seem to take delight in the loss. The fact liam sutcliffe is anywhere near an international side is a joke. Even more of a joke he got called up against France for the first team. The lads played a very good team in a hostile environment. The Queensland cup is a fantastic competition and I would say is higher standard than champ and lower end SL.

Anyway the lads seem to have have a great experience and it’s brilliant the concept has allowed this tour

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

Having watched a fair bit of NSW cup action over the last 9 seasons I can attest that NSW 2nd tier Rugby is better than Queensland Rugby with the last 3 Interstate finals being hammerings for the QLND sides. NSW 2nd tier RL is as good as the top of the Championship, but any NSW/QLND 2nd tier side playing SL over 27 rounds would finish dead set last.

However......in this matter

Personally I think they would finish above London Bargain Bin Broncos and Salford Skint Reds.
