Tim Lovejoy said some very good things about rugby league on something for the weekends. Here is the link for those that didn't see it. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0 ... 9_10_2011/ 32minutes.50seconds Does anyone have any other examples of rugby league being mentioned on TV. I think things like this are very good for the game.

He tweeted about it during the game on Sat. Rooney tweeted he was at the game and he is a a Leeds fan (?).

A few other tweeted how they enjoyed the Leeds/Wire game, but can't remember who!

There was a feature on Football Focus on Saturday about video referees that included quite a lengthy interview with Stuart Cummings and ended with Joey Barton mentioning he was a big RL fan and was going to the Grand Final and there was a plug for BBC2's highlights.

Mentioned on radio 2 this morning. Has Crapbananas word in the ear done the trick?

Nicky Campbell still runs down the game at any opportunity. His one question to League players "would you like to play Union" had to be changed when he had McBanana on the programme to "which of England's 15 would you pick"

Lee Westwood and Michael Vaughan both calling League proper rugby on Twitter, and joined on the banter by Mark Foster ( e tour golfer)

Joey Barton said on twitter "now that is why super league is the best sport on TV". I was quite impressed with him.

Wayne Rooney was sat in his box just behind us at the weekend and he seemed to love every minute of it, as did his very lovely looking wife and her very lovely looking female relatives

I have no idea who Tim Lovejoy is. Therefore he's clearly not famous.

You clearly have no culture. Soccer AM?

ah - he's some sort of minor Sky Sports association football presenter?? Clearly my ignorance is justified. He's not famous.

On know it*s not telly but on Talksport this morning i think it was Ray Houghton and Ronnie Irani were saying how they really enjoyed the grand final on saturday,,and then on the afternoon slot think it was Hawksby and Jacobs,,again they were really talking up Saturday game,,some good post over the weekend on Skytexts page 459 as well....

H&J are the best Talkfootball presenters for RL. They regularly mention the game, and both go to the Challenge Cup Final.

I read a tweet off the Welsh comedian Mark Watson after the Wire-Leeds game that went along the lines of 'i'm a south welshman, but I have to admit this game of rugby league is brilliant'
