Applaud everyone for pushing this and really hope the RFL do pay attention and work overtime to get a fundraiser on.
But if any of you really want to give something to help those affectedhttps://www.cumbriafoundation.org/rl |

Ah, yes. Who could forget how the RL community rushed to organise a benefit game for the people of Hull when we were flooded a couple of years back (also resulting in a death)?

err no.
to compare the situation of that in Cumbria to that in the Pacific region is laughable
These people (should) have insurance, they have the NHS - i'm sure they can cope with a wet carpet, broken TV and a bit of a longer commute to work.

| No, no and no.
Its about time people in this country stopped this infatuation with begging. We pay plenty of taxes to cope with mishaps like this.
Hey, any banks flooded? That should get the government to throw in a couple of BILLION  |

Almost as laughable as your ability to read! Noone did compare and it was stressed a second time to confirm!
As for begging, its not. Begging is something where you ask for donations - money for nothing other than the satisfaction of giving. Where you pay to watch a game and profits are given to a chosen cause is not begging, its a fund raiser.
And nobody would be made to go!
God forgive people for thinking of others!

Really taking the moral high ground you, aren't ya! Trying to say these people are less deserving than those people - why should I care... blaa blaa...
Rugby League fans stick together mate. |

It wasn't necessary then, and it isn't necessary now. There are far more deserving causes. |

Hence the reason, if you're gonna claim to care - which clearly some don't - then just make a small donation and give over with all the making out like you care.
Agree with Cheshire Tiger that some on ere maybe need to think of others, but can't agree with him that making a donation is different from a fundraiser. Nobody's forced to donate money or turn up at a fundraiser.
What a sorry lot. I only hope you're never in the same boat - no pun intended (honest!) |

What I mean is people cant be bothered to turn up for Challenge cup games so they are hardly going to turn up in their droves for a charity game |

Dropkick 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
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Great idea but I honestly just don't think it would be well attended!
