Quote: Sharpy_4a "They dont really matter any more though do they (see our coaches attitude towards the Widnes game and to a certain extent Hudersfield), as long as we are in the playoffs, thats all that matters and yes I realise you get in the playoffs by winning league games, but the only games I think about the week before are Wigan v Stains games, not even thought about tonights game all week.
Just over the last few years RL has become increasingly boring, and I never thought I would say that, been going home and away since 1987.'"
I've been at sea for 18 of the last 24 months and my only time in the UK was just to see the internationals - but I still get just as excited when the game is around the corner - All week I read these forums and check on the BBC for updates regarding players and stuff the coaches say etc.. If I can catch a game on the iPlayer or Wish FM it makes a massive difference for me personally. I just can't see how rugby league has become boring - what's boring is constantly putting up with journos from ESPN saying how good Rugby Union is and how 'brave' American Football players are!
