Really happy with this decision.

It will give the games some meaning as it gets the season off to a unique start with supporters wanting to see new signings in action.

Like Barrett he is a myth. He is solid enough, he can catch, he can kick goals.[/quote:15kig0eg]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7958.jpg

Suppose the next question is "who will play who"?

Much better PR opportunity for RL and every team gets an outing of their new squad on TV.

Not that keen on the weather side and valentines scheduling does mean that eateries will be full and hotels charging a premium.

23 - 20 - 4 Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png

We'll take the Wolfs. They've had an easy run at MM weekends for far too long icon_smile.gif

Jesus wept...the attitude of some on these boards stuns me at times. To those people who are moaning about MAYBE having to take 1 days holiday to attend........don't bother, I am sure you don't travel to away games anyway unless it's on a local bus route, but you'll use this fixture to try to look like you would normally walk over broken glass barefoot to get to a game icon_rolleyes.gif
Hotel prices will go up.....same as flights and anything else as demand increases. Get over it. 5 months (about 22 weeks or more), save £20 a week..........and there you go! If you can't afford £20 a week tucked away, then hotel prices aren't the issue.
Weather. It's the best stadium in the UK....it has a roof, so the only problem MIGHT be getting there. Again, if demand is there, the rail companies will lay on extra trains.

Moan moan moan is all you get on these boards sometimes....and usually from fans of heartland clubs resenting having to travel further than the end of their own street to watch a game of RL icon_rolleyes.gif

She's got a point. Its my (RooRoo-he's still logged in) birthday on the 13th and everywhere is waaaayy more expensive that weekend. Also as a Head Of Year, I can't book the Monday off so the weekend is a no go for us.

However the move back to Cardiff is an excellent idea- (for us) I only wish it was a week later-any other year it would have been half term but its a week later this year!!

Oh and Gutterfax-i regularly attend Oldham away games-it is just logistically impossible for me to stop Sunday night in Cardiff and be in school for 8am Monday!!

Still, if Saints play on the Sat we may just do the day

Might be logistically to watch the last game on Sunday and drive home though..........and if you're a teacher, 1 day off the booze will do you good and if you're an Oldham student......then one day off the booze will do you good icon_cool.gif

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Quote: Chris Saint "Teacher

Maybe i don't drive So the RFL should consider Teachers from the Oldham area who don't drive and can't book a days holiday 6 months in advance when planning their season starting showcase... icon_rolleyes.gif
As I said................some people are never going to be happy.

1 days holiday out of 20 days (or in your case.........god knows how many) is 5% or your minimum entitlement is hardly going to interfere with the rest of the year is it?
FFS.......try being a lOndon Fan with 7 away games in Friday nights.......that's 7 days or 35% just to follow your team. Some people don't know they are born....... d040.gif
Well, as a Quins RL fan who now lives in New Zealand I thinks it's disgraceful that the magic weekend isn't being played in the Cake Tin in Wellington....or at least at 3am in the morning in Cardiff so I don't have to get up in the middle of the night to watch my team.....it's a disgrace! icon_rolleyes.gif
