| Quote: Bigredwarrior "I wasn't comparing competitions in that way at all. I said the standard of rugby league in SL is poor and was accused of being arrogant because I should give more credit to teams like Hull and Widnes. Whilst they have improved the standard RL of the competition is not great and was using the WCC to illustrate the standard of our league.
We all know we'll never compete with the NRL but that doesn't mean the rugby over here is good enough!'"
I've stated on and off for year that SL is in decline, it's no coincidence that as more teams replace the genuine quality overseas players with youngsters the quality has nose dived. The British game doesn't produce enough talent to support an entire league, we have too many very average young players in the first team because of politics off the pitch. We can't compete with union and the NRL, we can't draw star names anymore and very best players are cherry picked.
The state of SL is deteriorating each season. The powers that be either can't see it or think it's the lesser of two evil, do they increase the cap and watch teams end up in financial crisis or accept a mediocre league with average young players.

| That's exactly what we needed. Gags of effort and no new injuries reported (so far)! Excellent win and made even better as other results have gone our way. Chuffed to bits with that!

| Thought Crosby did well in his first game back.
Bateman, absolutely the difference!

| I was listening to the radio commentary live, and we still sounded scratchy in attack, but a great effort, and watching that last score from Bateman just now, wow! He is just such a good footballer; we must keep hold of him.

No injuries and Flower, Lockers and Gelling all due back next week according to Wane in the press conference.
Things looking up hopefully.

That would be awesome if true.
