Rugby League is a sport that desperately needs to expand its geographical supporter base and its player base. This imperative means that all other requirements are secondary until this is done. All power in the game should be with governing bodies, especially international governing bodies. Without these actions we will remain a minor sport internationally and nationally.:



Christ, and we wonder why the spread of RL into the parts of the UK that have never seen a pit or a whippet has been stymied...

Most union spectators seem to be reasonably open-minded about our game, a few even grow to prefer it to the sport they grew up with. Yet tools with infantile opinions and personality defects do all they can to alienate them before they get the chance to form an opinion???

Quote: gutterfax ".....................Union have their own problems to deal with and we have ours. I would suggest that on an administrative front, League can learn from Union as to what they have achieved internationally in 20 years, but such blasphemy is normally shot down on the NRL board (very quiet over there at present
I see Leeds Carnegie Coach Neil Back is questioning which RU clubs are breaching their own league's salary cap (around £4 million a season). The "big club's" want to up it in preparation for the RFL style ongoing monitoring rather than season end as at present, which I believe will come into force next season.

There is no doubt that 3 world cup final appearances (including 1win) in 20 years has helped with the expansion of the union game.

i think they will have to raise it, as even with 4mm cap, its still dwarfed by the french cap which is over 7mm. makes the league cap look like chicken feed, and its no wonder players are going over to france in their droves. the nrl will have to raise theirs, after the melbourne fiasco, and the rfl need to look closely at theirs or british league players, and just as importantly french league players will end up in french ru

I must totally disagree that the codes clash, i coach RU for a Mini/Youth team and whilst i prefer to watch RL i love both sports and there is absolutely no reason why you can't, i think the vast majority of both supporters respect both codes even if they don't actually watch one of them.

We had our presentation day for the RU Club Mini section on Saturday and although the local football team were at Wembley at the time and on TV the RU supporters in the bar area with the TV watched Warrington V Huddersfield, and these are die-hard RU Supporters/Players & Coaches.

I have never had any problems from RU supporters and regularly go to Saracens and Twickenham for Internationals and proudly boast that i actually prefer RL, some people try to argue which is better but never with any malice to the other.

Please don't make generalisations about either sets of supporters, Rugby in either code has a lot to offer the other and both should be viewed in that way and not just in competition with each other.

There are probably some bad supporters of either code in the same way there are bad people in all walks of life with differing interests.

Enjoy Rugby in both codes if you can, if you can't then don't complain about the other just enjoy what code you prefer and leave it at that, everyone is entitled to their own tastes.
