Quote: Psychedelic Casual "Hull City and Wigan Athletic are made to paint over the football markings on their pitch before Hull and Wigan can play rugby on them.

That pitch in Toronto looks bloody terrible and is a distraction to what’s going on in the game.'"


It's not paint, it's coloured plastic. We would have to rebuild the pitch every game. The players don't have any trouble with the markings and nor should you.

In the recent game v Widnes a kick went up in the air and the Widnes winger planted his foot behind the goal line to take it on the full for a 20m restart, only it wasn't the try line but some sort of Lacrosse end of pitch line about 1m in front of the try line. I wouldn't say that was the players coping with it.

On the Widnes pitch they manage to "paint" over the other lines on it before each game, be that football or rugby, surely Toronto can do the same?

Surely they haven't laid separate colours of AstroTurf down for the different markings have they - that sounds bonkers

What if some of the players are colour blind?

If it's so hi-tech then there should be a way of sorting it out. It's confusing for the players, TV viewers and the folk watching in the ground. From what I've seen, every ground in the UK has to mask out the lines from other sports before a different game is played. It's not always brilliantly successful, but there's at least a decent chance of the players being able to differentiate between the markings.

Quote: GeoffRoebuck "Scroll down the link below which lists of populations of UK towns & cities and you will see how many there are with populations above 50,000 that dont have a professional Rugby League team.



Wow, what's that got to do with whether stadiums have a covered stand or not?

I do have a problem with the pitch markings. Watching on tv the miriad of lines makes it very confusing. A player last week on catching a high ball thought he had his back foot over the dead ball line, unfortunately he didn't.

This is simply jealous fans clutching at straws. The mighty Toronto Wolfpack finished on the same number of points as Leeds, Salford and Hull kr. Once they sweep aside London Broncos they will be in Super League after earning their place.

Where is the thread on Belle Vue Super League clubs Wakefield ground? That is a disgrace.

The same sweeping aside against London they would have lost to if the Canadian broadcasters weren't so backward that their technology can't support VR?

Good luck to both teams and lets hope there's no controversy this time.

and had Child hadn't eased you to the win over Salford you'd of been in the million pound game and more than likely been in the championship with your super duper stadium, talk about scratching backs

Yeah because that has never ever been brought up before.

Having said that at least the playing field is fit for purpose.

The standard of trolling on here has really slipped. Is SKS the best on offer?
