WTF?!!  Lincolnshire 1 mile away?  I live in East Hull and I'm a good 5 miles from the KC.  
Besides Lincolnshire is not something either of the two Hull clubs have (AFAIK) looked at tapping into - it's dominated by football clubs (Grimsby, Shorpe, Lincoln City etc), and has always been football, that will never change.
Serious question - if Quins do suffer from a lack of awareness & advertising, hasn't Sky ever helped them with this? |

Surely you mean:
- Good mix of players from New South Wales and Queensland
You go one way you're in the sea, you go the other way you're in Hull. Id hide in that stadium every other week for £15.00. London's a bit different.

[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

More home fans
- More travelling fans 1 POINT
- Some of the most passionate & vocal fans in the country 0 POINT
- A fantastic local derby which Sky can't get enough of (even playing it on a Thursday evening for example, desperate that they were just to televise it). 0 POINT
- Good mix of youth and experience 0 POINT
- More successful on the pitch at the moment 1 POINT
- Sell a ton more merchandise 0 POINT

How many games have Taylor, Spaven, Beaumont, Mariano and Jack Latus actually played in first grade?
If you played that lot you'd be just where we are. I wonder how many of your fans would be turning up then. |

Would that be the Jake Webster who was born in Australia? You don't seem to know much about players at your own club or is it too far to go?

Roofs has responded and responded very well , we have some good home grown talent at Rovers , however we also have some good Aussie players who chose to play for our club , there must have been some attraction for them to come and want to play for our club, i wonder how appealing your club is to potential signings ..............lets face it , you have changed names how many times , your attendance is poop , your away support is poop, your atmosphere is poop, your performance is poop, if the RFL had the courage to admit they had made the "expansion " mistake teams like yours would be relegated , you bring nothing to SL at all, it's rugby Yawnion territory from your neck of the woods , get Widnes & Fax back ,proper RL teams .
