Not a chance. If you're tired of the debate then fine, don't bother but when you repeatedly spout opinion in the face of facts I'll respond!

1. It is a flop in terms of TV viewers and attendances...that's not an opinion, it's a reality. As for interest in the press, if it does, then why are we looking at fewer fans and even fewer viewers than for a regular season game?
2. Darts out ranking us is not a reason to get Hearn involved, but it is an underlining of the reality of where we currently sit.
3. So you didn't watch any of the England RL games on the BBC then? Nationally, RL at club level get's more FTA coverage than union....but that may change depending on how the C5 experiment goes.
4. Well spotted. Their system is viable because the best they have already replaced the 3 weakest sides in the top tier with the best 2 sides and then the best of the next four......SL doesn't have the system to remove the weakest automatically so it becomes more of a lottery, but again, 50k viewers and 7k fans isn't good.
5. Football is the national sport........ the SL Grand Final attracts 360,000 fans to tune in, so the question is why don't more than 13% of them bother with the MPG.....is that not proof that the MPG is of little interest to anyone other than fans of the 2 sides involved and the hard core RL enthusiasts?

The "sky won't let us" argument is a red herring thrown up by SL clubs jockeying for positions of power. Sure sky could say that's not what we paid for, so the RFL could invite other bidders to come in and replace them....SKY own the broadcast rights, not the sport itself....they can argue that they want the MPG but I suspect any legal eagle and a sport with backbone would tell SKY that they own the rights to broadcast games, not the structure of the sport.....but in doing so, the SL chairman would have to risk something other than just playing it safe.

I say again
But dog, it’s getting dull now.
You have your opinion I have mine. Neither of us can change it so how about leaving it at that!
