I don't think so personally, nor do I think the Exiles weekend is a good idea, personally I'd leave it and see what the CC brings, if by some stretch one side gets to the final then it's midweek at the business end of the season, don't do anything early in the season.

Seems the obvious solution doesn't it.

It should be remembered that Football Clubs travel to all parts of Europe for mid week games.

it should also be remembered that football is nowhere near as physical as RL, and the players are multi-millionaires, and the clubs are paid a minimum of £80m a year, hardly comparable.

I was thinking more about the fans. Not the jessies who play the game. Having said that the travelling has the same effect on a person whether they are being paid £10 or £10,000.

As I said in an earlier post, I would be absolutely fuming if I had travelled to France and the game was called off.

We stayed up all night as we were staying approx 40km away in Sete. Partied until 3am and loitered around the main square with other drunkards, eventually catching the train back to Sete at 6am. Shattered was the 'in-word' that day. Even thought the result wasn't in our favour and the poor timetable for transport effected us. I'd do it all again - But maybe drink a little less next time. 3litre plastic bottles of Sangria take effect after a while.

We visited Sete last year as we stayed in/near Montpellier for the game. Lovely place. Not quite as drunk as Beziers when I went either.

It is going to be a disruption for people who wish to go to the game that work during midweek, unless they get the time off. As for a mid-week game in France for the players it would have the same effect if we played a midweek game against London or Saints for that matter. I don't see the problem other than 2 games in a week and a slight disruption for fans. The RFL should pull their fingers out and give us a date as soon as possible to ensure that fans can adjust and get time off work. Some fans are worrying too much. Its only France ffs. It's a few hours away not light years.

what difference would it make if SL players were multi millionaires ?

would they play any differently ?

Probably, they'd turn out like the fannies that play football

They would drive faster cars spend more money on women and do more drugs and live the life in Weir bar drinking champers












All of the above is not true, calm down

well,to paraphrase the words of the great George Best when asked about how he managed to lose all his money

" I spent it most of it on birds, booze, fast cars, clubbing and having a great time - the rest I just wasted "....
