especially when its the 'establishment' telling them...broad sheet newspapers, mainstream broadcasters, royal family...all occupied by Union playing, old school tie brigade....
RL's only hope is Australia....and the strength of the sport there....where the 'establishment' has been kicked out....which is what we should have done as a nation years ago IMO. |

"Anyone who can suggest that there is no such thing as an active anti RL agenda from the RFU is, quite simply, an idiot who has no idea how the upper middle class go about their business. Wouldn't trust any of them. The type of people who'd rather watch you drown than part with a single penny. The same people who cover up sex scandals and paedophile rings within the establishment.'"
Correct Sir. I would add more but i would get in bother. Hoping they get a good kicking off the Aussies this week. |

Don't think any of the broadcasters do really. I remember a time when on Challenge Cup final day there was a huge 2 to 3 hour build up, all the pre-match entertainment etc was broadcast and it was really all designed to climax the suspense up to kick off and it worked. People like Courtney Lawes being in advertisements for Maximuscle, Chris Robshaw doing Lucozade, Johnny Wilkinson with Gillette and even Jack Whitehall in an advert just to basically promote Rugby Union with Robinson, Dallaglio and Martin Johnson et al doesn't help. They get way too much exposure. I am afraid the broadcasters now have all colluded with each other to push womens football as much as they possibly can to get some interest. The problem is that it's an absolute garbage spectacle and it won't make a difference. Last year they were pushing like mad on a friday for the top of the table clash in the Womens Premier League and how much was riding on it etc. The game in question finished 10-2. How the hell can you push something so ridiculous.

No chance. The england rugby union team is the pinnacle of sports in this country. At a sell out twickenham, they will see off the aussies easily. Jones is even leaving the beast, Itoje on the bench, such is the embarassment of riches he has at his disposal

10-2 isn’t a normal score in either the Women’s Premier League or the Women’s Super League which is what I presume you mean. All sports have occasional freak scores. Even the super duper Premier League.
It’s not garbage either. It’s garbage if you expect to watch the game and it to be the same as a men’s game, but then why would it be? |

Yes it is. Women's football is garbage. Men's football is garbage. all football is garbage. It never used to be. but it is now. It used to be intense and end to end with hard tackles. Now there's a penalty every time someone is touched and the players milk it.
Hang on... Sounds a lot like Rugby league these days when you type it out. |
