| between this and
Quote: davem/bencockayne ""I am not a racist person and have many friends of different ethnic origins. They would concur that I am not a racist individual and I hope people that don't know me can appreciate that."'"
it's not a good week for the image of RL
all we need now is for a club to bring the game down by signing a player they can't afford, only to find out he's also ineligible to play in their squad because of quo.... oh, hang on.

or give a player yet another chance because it suits a club after admitting to an offence that most of us would be sacked for....oh hang on again!!

why, because a few hundred thousand people along the M62 follow it?
The Sun doesn't print the results of fishing matches, yet fishing is bigger than rugby league.
RL is of little interest to 99% of the population of the UK, we just have to accept that.

Then Leaf recalled Doncaster's visit to Toulouse in the Co-Operative Championship in 2009, which they lost 52-6. A senior rugby league official (The Sun knows his name) took a more-than-usual interest in a fixture where Toulouse carried a 48-point handicap.

Is the reason the Sun and other dont cover it because of the above or is not followed by 99% of the population because the Sun and others dont cover it. I have no interest in school rugby (and I suspect neither do 99.99% of the population) but it dosent stop the Dail Mail giving it more coverage than a normal Super League weekend.
