Johannesburg !!!
What the hell have you heard? Spill the beans
(Will there be any help with the travel from the RFL?)
This revelation is a disgrace and typical of the RFL's meglamaniacal tendencies.

Joburg will be fine. It's Salford and east Hull I'm more worried about

| The game...
There is no difference for me between Puig-Aubert's genius and Billy Slater's.
The magic in the game is what brings most of us back to it.

| The club got me into the game and makes it more interesting. However with no immediate club to support I love the game just as much and watch it at whatever level I can.

Are you saying that Billy Slater was , small fat and smoked like a chimney.

Puig was the perfect shape for much of his career.
You would hardly get a more athletic looking footballer until his late 20s.
Early pictures of him for ASC verify this...

Unfortunatley i am not privileged to have his early photograph album.
Small , fat, bald with sublime skills is what i have read and seen of him.

| The game has to come first for me. If Rugby League is struggling, then my club would too. I think the games governing bodies - Europe and Down under has to promote International competition more and attract fans to watch the games. International competition gets neutrals interested - I've never had any interest in Mens hockey, but in the eighties when the Olympic team were doing well - I followed it and everyone at work was talking about it.
I love my club, but I'd love it if there was a European or World final between Spain & Italy for example (or anyone outside of the traditional nations).

| If Hull KR disappeared then I would not follow another professional club. I'd watch more local amateur RL.

| If my club went down the pan, I would never go to another match again.
I would cancel my Sky subscription and just watch S.L. show. I could never support another club, I find it bizarre.
No 2nd favourite teams for me, and as for the International team……..

| I think it's a given that we all love the game, that is what gives our beloved clubs a reason to exist.
But it needs to be put into some kind of context.
For example, to those that say the game comes first - would you be happy with something that had a seriously negative affect on your particular club if it was 'for the good of the game' ?
