The referee's indecision is final:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3738.gif



was a story going round that bradley wiggins was also asked to be guest of honour along with campbell (wigan and hull supporters respectively) but turned it down as he's focused on training for the world champs, even though he'll be at wembley

Russell Crowe or Mickey Rourke might have been better for profile raising

Is this a wind up? You'd prefer a government minister?

The ability of the RL fan to moan about the most minor of points is astonishing. Oh for the days of Thatch handing it over...

That's one way of brushing the devaluation of the Challenge Cup under the carpet.

You ought to apply for a job at the RFL.

I think it was Don Bradman who presented the Cup to Salford Captain Gus Risman 1938.
but in Cricketing terms he was legend.

Akin to Usain Bolt presenting today.
So using a sportsman has precident. but would need to be a name - a Mo Farrar or one of the many Man U players into RL

What about Kathraine Jenkins in a bikini.

That way you would guarantee that even the losing teams fans would stay for the presentation.

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

Connection with the public? Nobody knows who he is. At least Royalty and Politicians have a high public profile.
