No one ever stopped the church by pulling down the steeple,
You'll never beat the system by bombing number 10,
Systems aren't just made of bricks, they're also made of people,
You may send them into hiding but they'll be back again:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6300.jpg |

Let me get this right. Rugby Union was a fast-flowing game, known for open play, fast movement of the ball and lots of tries prior to the arrival of rugby league coaches? What a pile of b*****ks!
The reality is that the fitness and speed that come with overt professionalism have cruelly exposed the flaws in RU as a spectacle. We realised the problems and dealt with them. They can't do the same as to do so would be to admit the problems inherent in the form of their game and their rules. I've made a conscious effort to give RU a chance recently. I've sat and watched internationals and premiership games. The sad fact is it just doesn't cut the mustard when compared to RL. |

Love the "Edwards turned his back and left union for the League money"
He only played it as a school boy ffs.
That is one hell of a chip on the shoulder article.

It's very rare that anyone comments on the rugby articles of the Belfast Telegraph. There are 23 and counting on Mr Bills' article.
What's the bet he pukes up more rubbish about League from now on ?.........................

Looks to me they are a division or two above their level.
Say what you like but at least there's a rugby union club in Manchester. Whatever happened to the Manchester RL club? Wasn't that long ago they were advertising for players.'"
I think you mean rlMancunians RLrl. They played in the rlMerit Leaguerl last summer and did fairly well, going out to the eventual runners-up.
Not sure why they never carried on into the NWC for the winter, though I do know at least one of their players (and possibly more) plays for Manchester RU. I think a few of the summer Merit League sides are made up of mostly RU players from RU clubs.
But seriously, that run of results must be heading for some sort of record. |

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

Another ex-league Kiwi to play for England RU as well as the top try scorer in the premiership (so he must be an ex league player too)

After 2 postponed games, the whipping boys are back:
Manchester 23 vs 45 Wharfedale
Actually not a bad result, considering when they last met the score was Wharfedale 124 vs 5 Manchester.
