Quote: reffy "It is you (plural) that is the permanent embarrassment in this group. A part time team having to travel across the Atlantic, with work commitments, expense and entry problems so that gobbins like you can sneer at them.'"


The poster on question is a relentless tool, who cares what it says or thinks.

Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "Barrow showed up to their fixture with only 14 players, meaning they only had 1 substitute. This is the sort of thing that happens at U12’s, not a Championship fixture. It’s not even a one off, the Raiders only had 15 fit players available for last Sunday's game at Featherstone Rovers, with former player Chris Fleming coming out of retirement and Barrow Island amateur Ben Garner joining to boost the team.

What an embarrassment, yet some people repeatedly claim we should have a Super League club up there.'"


Presumably Manchester City are also a laughing stock as they have, on one occasion, failed to name a full complement of substitutes?

Rugby League is a 17 man game (occasionally McDermott only uses 16 but is heavily criticised by Leeds fans) to only start the game with 15 is shocking. There is no comparison with football substitutes.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:

Got to agree the comparison with football is ridiculous I think you can name something like 8 subs but only use half that so Barrow taking 14 players is like something out of Sunday league pub sides game

It sounds like a bit of a minefield with getting Visa's at short notice into Canada. It'll be a bit more embarrassing for the sport if one of the current SL teams turn up to play TW without a full 17 in the M8's.

The whole nonsense is a mess. If Torontans (?), New Yorkers and/or Bostonians want RL, let them grow it. They won't. It's all a sham move to fill the back pockets of certain administrators - embarrassing laughing (all the way to the bank) stock - to expand a little on daft Kev's opening.

Leigh visit the "Lampoon" stadium next week. Will they also be barracked in student accommodation as so many other teams have been? Those classy Trannies apply the agreed rules to the letter though nowhere near the spirit. Another Big Nige Buttock Up icon_biggrin.gifAISY: (Sorry, couldn't find a buttercup - though there'd be no need to hold one under said man's chinsssssss).

Magic Weekend over there. Nope! Time for the Rimmer icon_moon.gif to pull his whatever out and find his replacement.

As per normal Bongster, crystal clear and makes perfect sense.

Evening Bongster, I have got it, might take the rest of the world a little more time, but they will in the end.

Curiously, most other teams haven't had problems getting work visas for Canada. Barrow stands out as having this problem on two out of three visits. Dewsbury also had a spot of bother earlier this month. Getting a work visa isn't difficult if you plan ahead of time and if applicants are straightforward about any possible, er, restrictions. Wolfpack even provide a local immigration consultant to assist away teams.

At this point in the season, it's pretty easy to identify which SL teams will be in the Qualifiers. Those teams should be starting the visa application now.

There is always potential that 2,3 or even more players, some of which may be key to be denied travel if they have any sort of criminal record.

Will be interesting to see if any Clubs fall foul & are forced to send a weakened side & possibly lose as a result come the 8's
