| Quote: Steve0 "Watching the England v France game really does make you question the long term future for our sport.
International RL should be the pinnacle of any sport...and this is far from it. The game is being played in a stadium that's less than half full and as a curtain raiser to a championship game later(I think there were only around 5k in Warrington last year for the same fixture so can't just blame the french for poor crowds), it's not on a main broadcaster in the UK, in true rfl style, superleague+ / our league style there were problems with being able to log on...and the production of it is poor.
With the NRL seeming less and less interested in international RL, it feels that France is one of our best options for regular competitive international RL marches, especially as Catalan continue to produce more top quality players and hopefully Toulouse do too in the near future, so I think we should stick with it, but it needs far more promotion and effort put into it to make it a meaningful fixture. The players are only being paid £250 too and had to fly on a delayed Ryanair flight to get there yesterday!'"
It doesnt help when the BBC is the only terrestrial tv channel
They are not interested in Rugby League anymore and in my opinion only outbid Channel4 in spite rather an any appetite for the game.
Didnt like the KO time with Channel Four but the coverage and presentation was good whereas the BBC coverage is all over the place,BBC 2 BBC 3 red button and the odd game i think on BBC1.
Even worse neither the BBC or the RFL do any pre game advertising.
Its really pathetic
The long term future of the sport i think will rely on some sort of merger with the NRL but that wont be done until they get rid of the speadsheet Charlies IMG.
Its too expensive and clearly not working in promoting or adding value to the game and Super League clubs now are beginning to see the light.
No dount another huge costly mistake by the RFL.

| It's a sad indication of International RL both sides of the hemisphere . One game run by a clueless bunch of skint imbeciles and another lot of cashed up insular looking
Fat blokes . We get promised an International calendar evert year but nothing ever gets delivered .
We still haven't heard anything on the ashes tour down under yet nor anything on the supposed World cup .
No wonder fan numbers are dwindling .

| I tried to watch the match but the ourleague website kept having error code 503 (site unavailable) or would sit spinning forever when I tried to log in. I tried repeatedly from 5-6pm hoping to at least watch a bit of it, but eventually gave up. A bit sad when if it had been on a normal channel, I would have easily been able to watch.

| I'd be asking for a refund for the moneyball supercomputer if it's recommended we sign Hardakre, looks well off the pace tonight....maybe we have the 2018 version of the software and didn't pay for the 2024 update

| Plenty of niggle in the Wigan Leigh game. Hardaker got skinned by Wardle, he probably does that to every centre he's opposite though. Hardaker definitely isn't a wingers centre, loves to cut back inside.
Has Beaumont banned Lam from bringing Asiata on.....

Tommy Saxton won a cup with us, doesn't make him a brilliant player, don't buy that line some fans try use when justifying a below par signing

| Surely Watson must be on borrowed time at Huddersfield with the amount he’s been backed by Davy and spent.

Nobody said that Saxton was a brilliant player, nobody has said that Hardaker is a brilliant signing.
