[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

In the same article he admits that Rugby Union is boring, which is quite funny.

Should this sentance read;

He doesn't refer to the game at The Stoop at all, just that using two small-scale grounds to launch a supposedly major international sporting tournament is a bit disappointing.
Bit like opening the 2018 football World Cup (if England win the right to host it) at Oakwell and The Valley. |

Stephen Jones sees rugby league as a threat? 
A threat to what exactly? When rugby league in the UK can manage to convince 70,000 people to come through the doors to watch an international then it might, just might be perceived as a threat.
As it is, Premiership attendances are matching and in many cases overtaking SL ones and the international game enjoys a profile rugby league can only dream of. It's as much a threat to Union as Azerbaijan is to world peace. |

Yawn, yawn. Boring as per usual. Maybe he should stick to journalism on rugby union and stick to letting Chris Irvine do the rugby league coverage.

Union is totally and utterly dominant at the moment. He is doing nothing but having a slight dig. He also has a fair point, why the Aus-NZ game wasn't played at an appropriate venue is beyond me. It's the pinnacle of rugby in either code as pointed out by Brian Carney on Sky, so why we can't get 50,000 along to it I'll never know.
England - France is another matter because it's just unmarketable here. It should have been played in France. That would have made it even closer.

All that might be true. But if he isn't worried about RL, why does he keep commenting? and why is he given the space to do so? It's because deep down, he knows RL is better. He is like the gay basher who is gay themselves. He just can't bring himself to say it ' I am a RL fan'.

Because your average insular club fan has no interest whatsoever in a game in which none of their club's players or their own national team is involved, The 2000 World Cup taught us that lesson.
The only feasible place to play it was in London where at least the expat/backpacker contingent would ensure a decent crowd if the locals couldn't be bothered turning up. |
