I did, took me back right to my childhood. All we needed was the Golden Condor flying across the screen and all would have been forgiven for them stuffing up the anthem.

IMHO the shambles with the National Anthem and then the debarcle with the minutes applaus just shows that RL in France is run by a bunch of amateurs who don't know what they are doing.

You mean apart from Tomkins, Hall, Yeaman, Briscoe, Sinfield, Peacock, Roby, Graham, Ellis, Westwood, Widdop, Morley, Jones-Buchanan and Wilkin? |

RL in France *is* (in the nicest possible way) run by a bunch of amateurs. Lot of volunteers put in time to push tickets & put on a great evening's entertainment last night. It's not an RL ground, they don't usually have to worry about the demands of TV and the crowd & band were sufficiently loud that it was hard to hear yourself.
It was kind of funny to watch the Sky guys shouting at them to hurry up because it was time for kick-off when they were trying to get the CD working. And they did manage to get it going for the end of the match  I think they were impressed that the England team just laughed it off rather than taking offence.
Lot of positives for French RL from last night - on and off the field. Not a mention of the game in L'equipe this morning, though. Not even the score. |

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg |

Eddie going on and on about it was more embarrassing than the actual non-event of the National Anthem

There's more to being a centre than scoring. His defence is terrible and international level he'd let in far more than he'd score. What other players have you produced who you feel warrant an England call up? |

Agreed. He seemed to have a right bee in his bonnet about a number of things last night. Was an opportunity for Stevo to turn the tables and give him some stick cos Eddie usually can't wait to give Stevo some if he's being a bit grumpy! |

Exactly, not a thing is ever said about that, but there is a lot of hard work put it by an organization that doesn't get any mention or attention from anyone normally, fair play to them for getting what looked like a reasonable crowd down too.

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

Rovers not having 11 overseas players would have helped avoid the shamateurism of French RL? Now there's a thing.
Well done on the crowd though, 17K given how poor the French national team has been is a great effort.
