If it wasn't for the SL debacle the union mob would've never gone professional.

So much unfulfilled potential. Rugby league is such a fantastic sport, it's a shame we've got no money to make these roots bear fruit.

Well done to the RFL for this and big raps to the Skolars and Quins (in their various formats) plus other smaller sides in London for helping to spread the word.

from small acorns, and all that. the more schoolkids in London we get playing the game now, the more likely the sport is to permeate the Southern universities in 5 years time, then in 5 years - those kids that are learning the game now will be getting jobs in London - and progressing to positions of influence in business, in the media, and in politics.

Its never going to be a quick solution, but given time, this sport can be massive.

She's a 14 year old Essex girl - if she wasn't playing League after school she'd be getting p*ssed on Bacardi Breezers before happy slapping some other kid then putting out in the back of a Corsa FFS.

The university game is surprisingly widespread, and has been for a few years now.

Any further bolstering is, of course, great!

I know it is widespread (i.e. played to some level in most Uni's I would imagine), but it is still very much a minority sport in most - with the majority of players being Northern lads who are studying down South.

Once these Southern kids start at Uni, there will be more and more "locals" taking up RL and it will really take off.

The next step is to get into the Southern Public schools - and start to develop more of presence amongst the social elite.

I have no actual figures, so this is obviously a shot in the dark, but I think you may be surprised.
