Where exactly? It would be good to know for future occasions. When I looked round all I could see was the scoreboard.

Sorry Listy, but I think you're being way too harsh. We lost the game during the five minute brain-fart at the start of the second half.

Personally I was impressed by the way we weren't being outflanked all the time, only one try came round the outside. Granted they waded through the middle a couple of times, but in general I thought the defensive effort was miles better than we've seen in the past, and definitely more organised.

As someone else has said, Danny Brough is one of the great kickers, not surprising that some of them were difficult to deal with, but we still mopped up more than we spilled.

They did look clueless with the ball at the end but it was obvious they were out on their feet.
And that tells its own story, they'd given 100% effort. How many times could we have said that in the last two seasons? This team gives more in 10 minutes than last year's did in a whole game.

I really feel for you guys. London deserves a successful team.

Over in the NRL, the authorities came out with statements that they were going to fund Melbourne whether other clubs liked it or not because the city was too improtant to not have a successful RL team.

Food for thought, Messrs Wood & Rimmer?

We wish! Good to see you on Saturday.

Only worth doing if there is a viable business plan and effective management in place. The reason we're in the position we are is because of a total absence of either for several years.

I've thought much the same. My view is that for RL in this country to try to compete with the RFU and NRL, it needs a successful London club and the commercial revenue that would come from it, and indeed the further expansion of the game. That said, I believe that the majority of RL fans in this country would prefer to maintain the status quo, with their team the big/medium fish in the small pond. To be fair, it's a view I can understand, even if I don't agree that it's in the sport's best interests.
