In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're eating the cats! They're eating the pets!:18686.jpg



If this game was programmed at the beginning of the season, then fair enough, however it was quite apparent from very early on that London are dead men walking, so if it’s a fairly recent addition, it’s a shocking decision.

Any newbie who just happens to be flicking through the sports channels & comes across this won’t hang about. It’s not a contest, just men v boys in a half empty stadium, with the usual fare from the commentary team.

It must be soul destroying playing for, or supporting London right now icon_sad.gif .

Thought it was an interesting game, not the best contest but saints played some good stuff, there was some great bits of play and it was heartening to see London not give up, they improved as the game went on and would have pushed a few lesser teams quite a bit closer

I enjoyed the match. Ok there was only going to be one winner, saints looked to stroll through for try's at times. But there was positives for London and they never gave up. Nothing worse than watching a losing side giving up so for me still a contest to watch.

Why not have them two teams?
Wigan vs Warrington this year... Boring as hell
Warrington vs saints only one winner.
Catalan vs leeds and giants. Walkover scores.

Nobody can predict what's going to happen in a game. Even the 'top teams' provide awful entertainment.
Well done London for showing courage and not giving up. Rugby league how it should be.

The difference being you have no idea if Wire v Wigan is going to be boring or one sided but a top team versus the worst side in SL is a forgone conclusion.

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround." An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg



Thought London battled well. Had saints 26-30 but I will credit the broncos for that.

Disagree there. The essence of rugby league, and any sport, is the contest. When there is no contest, there is no point.

As in the game where they played away at Leeds, I decided i would stick with it until Saints got a couple of tries, and once it was obvious there wasn't going to be a contest it went off. I have turned off two games this year, and both involved London.

See to me, rugby league is more than just a conclusion. I like to see what's on offer, wether a team will under perform because of an opponent or a weaker team will show spirit and fight for pride. We all know Warrington will probably lose in the grand final again but I'll still watch it.

I watched it & was not as bored as I thought, as I don't support either side it was interesting to watch the young kids from around the league on loan at the bronco's. I thought they did some excellent work as individuals but they are just not a team & lack the experienced head out on the pitch. But it was rugby league & that is the only reason I have Sky so I don't miss it no matter who is playing, besides don't tell me there has never been a one sided miss match screened before in any sport?

Maybe they think it will be some what of an exhibition, so they know there will be some good trys scored. People loved to watch the great Brasil football teams hammer teams. To most RL fans it was probably a boring contest, but who knows how non RL fans reacted to it.
