Williamson is getting better as the season goes on, but imo isn't anywhere near Steele's performances for us.

Weren't you about 5 when Retchless played?

oohhhh...get the old timer

The player who is going to take over Retchless's mantle is Robinson. Im always happy when both of them are out there though.
However, we need someone to score the tries as well and that is our current problem with Randall, Howell, Purdo and Dorn especially out

I was around 6-7 yes, but his performances live on forever in my head

I can understand where these people are coming from.

After all the years of abuse and bigotry by the Rugby Football Union, we go crawling to them for help and take on their name and colours. It was a dark day when it happened in my (and a few others) eyes.

I can't see many benefits on gameday of being Quins rather then the Broncos. For example:

* Griffin Park was a typical Rugby League stadium with its terracing and closeness to the pitch whereas playing in a relatively big ground quite a distance from the pitch is a huge atmosphere drainer.

* Griffin Park had a pub on each corner of the ground whereas you have to make a good 10-15 minute walk to a pub - called the William Webb Ellis, a RU pub.

* We had our own identity unlike now where we use someone elses. If you ask many Londoners they will say Harlequins is a RU team and not have a clue that there is also a RL team. The London Broncos didn't have a decent marketing team and thats why they struggled.

I've always been a believer that the best stadium I've seen RL played in London is Loftus Rd aka Queens Park Rangers home ground. Yes, the seats are a little uncomfortable and cramped but its a tidy ground, close to the pitch and now has the benefit of having the Westfield Centre nearby so the Wife & Daughter could go for a shop while Father & Son watch there team at QPR.

But I don't want to get into all this arguing, this is just my opinion, have a go at me if you must.

I love RL and am glad we have RL in London.

Hi Dave,

As a newcomer to this forum, you'll have to forgive for not immediately understanding what promted you to respond to this posing in such an aggressive way.

Help me understand what value it adds to this forum to have you accusing someone of being "pathetic"?

If I had a concern, it's that you seem compelled to respond to every email that really upset you, rather than letting some of them gently pass by.

I offer this as a constructive suggestion.

Regards,

Alan
