Quote: AS108 "Maybe he just isn’t very good?'"
Maybe your other middle forwards stand around and watch him work.
You should sit him out next game and see how the others go.

Quote: Gazwire "I didn't know that- Cheers 'Call me God'- Such a shame. Rl for me is much more of natural sport for genuine athletes. RU has got some incredible athletes playing but wasted as they're stuck in the backs, or forwards wrestling around. Some of the top/dynamic players would be a great watch in league where the traditional rugby skills of strength, speed and skill are required at every point in the game and not occasional times when the play is set free.

I hope Burrell will be good in May time for Wire after he's finished his stint at Northampton. Physically, he looks one he'll of player, but league requires the fitness as well, otherwise someones's going be running through his channel.'"


Based on what I have seen and heard so far of Ratu Naulago, RU sevens could be a great place to scout. He has taken to it like a duck to water and there will no doubt be plenty more where that came from. The skills and physical attributes should transfer really well from sevens to RL, moreso than the 15 man game.

215 tackles and 41 missed for the season.

For Yates to miss that many tackles, he must be working to the point of exhaustion every game, because he just doesn't miss tackles unless exhausted.'"


I think someone needs to have a look at the little key on the SL stats page.

I'll save you the effort. He has 41 marker tackles. His missed tackle count is 9.

Im not sure I believe those stats - I thought his defence was excellent today, including two beauties in succession right on our line just before half time.

See my previous post. He is looking at the wrong thing.

The South sea islands are so naturally equipped for rugby. Big, fast and skillfull; as you say 'Mr Zucchini' the 7s skills are perfect for SL.

That chap Jason Taumololo. If I could sign any player, it would be him. For the Wire, Ben Murdock Massila looks to have gotten past his knee injury and looks more fluent. Last year, I went to the Cas game away at Wheldon Road and the Wire players were warming up in pitch just next to the ground. The forwards were running in to the tackling pads at some pace. There were some big collisions and some nice sounding whacks. The biggest whoompf was when Westwood and moreso BMM went in. The crack on the pads was scary. Westwood moved everyone out the way, moreso than Hill and Cooper. But when BMM ran in at full pelt- blimey, an incredible impact- you could hear a smack and a half on the pads.

Seems odd calling a guy Ratu without using his whole name.
They never called that winger for Melbourne Ratu Marika Koroibete, although he was a Ratu and entitled to use the "title".
Maybe he uses it because he's in the army and wants to let people know he's a warrior by birth.

Was this result THE biggest shock EVER during the SL era ? (sorry London but, I hope that you know what I mean).

I cant think of anything remotely comparable.

For sale thirty brand new suits, made in 2007 never been worn but rather tear stained. Apply to Wigan warriors rented accommodation. 2 nil will get you a win 30 nil will get you a win 75 nil is absolute humiliation.:31168.jpg



The pies must have been shocked when Leigh put 50 on them a couple of years ago, they (Leigh) also beat the saints as well.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

In 2007 on our first ever outing as Harlequins RL, we traveled to a snowy Knowsley Road and beat the 2006 SL Premiers and GF winners St Helens 6-14.

Remember that well, the weather played a part in the game but the Harlequins adapted so much better and fully deserved there win. I would have thought London Broncos will still come up with a few more surprises this season if teams start to underestimate them.

One of the best impromptu songs I've heard at a league game ever.....

The Weather outside's delightful
the Harlequins shirt is frightful
wherever we choose to go
let it snow let it snow let it snow......

Paddock Punter I believe.... icon_cool.gif
