For signs of life? ... i'm screwed then

Actually the Exiles squad isn't that bad

They could line up as:

Hodson
Robertson
Millard
Moon
Monaghan
Dureau
Dobson

Kafusi
Lestrange
Faimu/Failongo
Menzies
Manu
Soliola

Fully motivated they would give it a fair go.

If i was a winger or centre, i would not want him running at me. Big and strong and helps the forwards.

Made me laugh but the way things are going it may well come to this. The whole concept is finished and is already not even serving the purpose which it was already set up for. The RFL may as well pull the plug now.

Or just market it properly

Its nothing to do with marketing. The whole concept is flawed and no matter how much marketing you use you cant polish a turd.

The squads for the 2nd game are woeful, the Exiles players dont even want to play in it as it means nothing and very few that do actually give 100%. They are not even representing anything and are playing for a made up concept that means nothing to them. This automatically takes away many of the so called benefits that it gives to the England side. McNamara says it is to give players a higher level of game but this is also false because he has already picked a more development team for the 2nd match and so it is no higher test at all, I would expect Wigan or Warrington to beat either of those squads easily. The concept really doesnt have a single thing going for it and is only going to get weaker in the coming years. The standard of Exile player has declined since last year and is going to decline markedly next season. When the new NRL TV deal kicks in it will then decline further. The concept is doomed and is a complete waste of time.

He's the scapegoat of the moment, it won't be long before SOL is filling the gap though. He will play as 6 like a 13 and will be disruptive to out patterns of play until he can learn to be as good a 6 as Tommy (who is clearly an out of position 9 going by some fans views).

Maybe the answer is to just put a 9 in as 6, hang on that could explain it. Tommy is a 9 in the southern hemisphere but when he's the right way up in the northern he's a 6!

I take it you've never heard of rugby union?

Made me chuckle.....

Expressions containing breweries, chipshops and brothels come to mind when considering the RFL marketing stratergies.

Sounds like the perfect night out

Who's booking a coach?

Who's making the flag?

Sounds like the last flag meeting...................................well, at least the bit about the chip shop does

Can we get a football song and change the words for it as well?
