| Why don't people just realise that RL is not very popular in Wales and get over it?

You're right. But the problem is that, sadly, so is he.

| Yep you are right, just as well bin the lot rather than encourage it yeah? I couldn't even be d to watch the game on TV before the Crusaders and for a few years when the challenge cup was in Cardiff thought that it was 'quaint' to see all the people with their different shirts. How stupid I was not to realise there was a great game there on my doorstep. Caught the bug when my son played for his school in a tag game as a curtain raiser to a Crusaders Featherstone game and haven't looked back (even though tomorrow night I'll get back home at 1.30 am following a 250 mile round trip for the home game)
Phipps is purely a wind up merchant who has nothing to contribute other than cheap shots at everything, he knocks the place where people live, the teams people support but refuses to name either for himself as that would allow people to comment back.
Meaningful discussion yes please, crap from Phipps no thanks.

| Well said Traffic, and I think he's from Leeds.
Barry was at least a better persona, Phipps is just rubbish.
C- must try harder

I am right and deep down people like Traffic know it.
I doubt whether he has ever lived in Wales to be perfectly honest.
There is only one code of rugby that matters in Wales and it's got 15 players in each team.

You are right. No wonder why most of the media ignore our great game when the on-field product is irrelevant.

And true to form another quip. Where do you live Phipps and which RL team do you support? Try and answer the question this time and it will go someway to proving you're more than just a poor imitation of Bazza.

No need to extend it, because the RFL just moves the Welsh team closer to the M62.

| Personally I only have experience of WRL through visits to watch my team play in Bridgend/Wrexham and the fantastic Magic Weekends in Cardiff. Like Catalans and London the Cru should be supported by all the RL community and not constantly rubbished by so called RL supporters from elsewhere. Is all we want the same regional game for the next 100 years?
I would like to see true potential for teams fom over the UK and await SL team being launched in Devon so Wales is a good staging post as far as I am concerned from my Yorkshire base!
We all love our teams - and Cru or other WRL supporters are no different - good luck to them!!
PS - Please keep Magic at Cardiff - great place and really enjoyed all visits there

That is irrelevant. They are now a poor team outside of the football league and therefore they should be no competition to a to level team.
A conference football team should not even be in the same league when it comes to crowds compared to a Super League team.

| The game is growing massively in Wales , we just need Crusaders to pull their finger out and we'll be fine. But seriously there are lots of RL teams starting in Wales now. Which is great news.
