I feel sorry for anyone who has to move from up north down to London.

Some take to it and some don't. He won't be the first or the last. Wasn't Thackery homesick in Hull and he was from just up the M62?

Not too sure but he was in Hull for a long time and stuck it out!

Rorke's Drift.........1879 or 1914?:10346.jpg



Matt James has a reputation for being full of himself. I would imagine the 3 substitute appearances were too much for his ego to take.

he happily "plebbed" it with lowly Halifax for a year so he can't be that much up his own 'arris.

It is a worry for Quins, attracting decent talent down south.

I know of some of the players they were targetting in the off season, these were NL1/NL2 standard players but I know of a couple who still turned them down as they didn't want to move to London and share accomodation with 3/4 players they didn't know as of yet.

WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg



I'm surprised more "Northerners" don't move down to play for Quins. 20 something and earning 100K+ in London would be a dream!

It's full of Southerners and Ockers like Barry MacKenzie. Make it £300k.

Northern slags are far better than Southern slags! And the slags along the M62 corridor are best of all!

Just out of curiosity, how many 20 year olds in SL do you think are on £100k+ salaries?

He didnt include the "£". Probably thinking in terms of aussie dollars, although that might be optimistic.

Quote: tb "Just out of curiosity, how many 20 year olds in SL do you think are on £100k+ salaries?'"


he did say "20 something" which would be the standard age for 90% of SL players.

based on the salary cap, the average earnings in SL are around £60k, but the point still stands....why do they find it hard to recruit talent from the North, or from the top international players who come over from Aus/NZ?
