Quote ="The Angry Pirate"I think the most worrying thing for Rugby League in general is the quality of the games that have been televised by Sky so far.
At a time of year when Rugby Union is traditionally the golden sport of the British media, it is not helping our game that so far our sport, to any watching neutral, will have come across as very dull.
Yes, as fitness and pitches improve, games will get better, but the Salford-Celtic game was an example of the main worry most people had when extending our league to 14 clubs, and that is that the good quality player is not in a big enough abundance to warrant a larger league.'"
The standard of Rugby has been far better than the majority of the 6 nations stuff, so that's not really relevant. League will get overlooked for the tournament anyway.
There have only been three games, with only Leeds and Celtic decided at the 60 minutes mark.
Celtic were right back in it at that point last night, and Saints v Wire was close after 60.
When you looked at the three games at the start, I think personally it has been better than expected, as I expected Leeds to put a decent amount on CC.
Not sure why you have a downer on the game last night, I thought it was fine.
