Unbelievable, embarassing and makes a mockery of the sport.

What am I talking about?

Stevo's limited vocabulary?

Hickey making the 17?

Wiggy and his boyfriend.

The Wigan try that turned the game came from the forwardest of forward passes; it's a total joke.

Have there ever been any rumblings from the RFL that they would allow the video ref to check for a forward pass?

There have been some horrors lately.

Cant see how its any different to onside offside imo. Unless your blind

That would be my next choice, forward passes have got out of hand and it won't be long, before the wing will be running down the field, to take the pass, ala NFL style.

Mr Wood was on 5Live Sports Xtra. What he said was that there will definitely be 1, possibly 2 clubs (depending on whether Halifax are given entry) dropping from the current teams that are in Super League. His rambling merely reiterated that the future for the English game will be very deluded under his tenure.

For what it's worth, John Kear (who is commentating on the wireless this evening) was very vocal in response to Dave Woods' badgering. He was asked that as favourites for demotion, would Wakefield do as Widnes did and build to be back in 3 years time. Kear's answer was simply it is a disgrace to even consider the fact that Wakefield should be dropped. He made the much overlooked point that movement from Championship to Super League is very strongly judged on winning one of the two competitions. Super League assessment is not judged on who finishes bottom, and for us to be dropped without having ever finished bottom of the league is wrong.

I fear that if Halifax are not successful this time around, they will be next time. Unfortunately the way the license system is shaping up is that every 3 years if another expansion club hasn't been formed and fast tracked, a pity license will be issued to those who try and try again. Widnes this time, Halifax next. This is no attack on Halifax but as things stand they simply do not rank above Wakefield or Castleford according to RFL license criteria. Criteria however is not worth the paper it's written on, if it is written on anything at all...

The game is run by jokers who don't give a damn about the true rl fans. Now don't think we have a chance of staying up.

I hate to say it but if it does stay at 14 teams then I have a feeling that the RFL will get rid of us even though our application is better than certain other clubs.

Lets be right about it, we're a easy target and they won't be much of a uproar from the other clubs and fans etc if they get rid of us, it's obviously been helped by, SKY hammering the point home over the last year, that we are favorites.

still second

Nothing's changed really. What I can't see is how Halifax's application could be better than any other clubs, particularly as it wasn't even better than Widnes's.
