You also had people complaining the takeover was taking too long, the red flags should've been there from the start, no way a swiss banker randomly wants to invest in an RL team without an alterior motive 

We got so lucky with our new owners

Talk about an absolute car crash of a take over & interview. Fair play to Carney and even Wilkin for grilling Irwin. 


The Salford situation is a complete p0op show from top to bottom. Shows just how poor the RFL’s governance is and has been when they can sanction a take over based on a land grab. 


Appalling situation for the players, staff and fans. 

Haven't seen the game but saw the interview on YT . Totally baffling how this has been allowed to get this far . It's another sorry episode from the RFL to add to an ever growing list of poor decisions from an totally bumbling organization .

If only we were playing them 3 times including a walk in the (st james) park at  magic weekend

Will they make it to St James Park ?

By the time we play them a new billionaire will have taken over and loaned the NSW Origin side for the weekend

Said it before and I'll say it again it's particularly embarrassing that our 'franchise' format should have prevented this. They could have been demoted, all players released and started again on a low budget. They have a small but loyal fanbase and imagine most would have still turned up.

Well done to all that attended a game this weekend. SL record attendance broken with 86k. 

Shane Richardson on James graham's the bye round. The last 15ish minutes on about NRL's potential takeover and saying SL clubs should break away and form NRLEurope. Good watch.

I trust what he says, rather than the e that Hetherington, McManus and Beuamont come out with

I wouldn't be surprised to see a franchise in North America again as he mentioned in that interview .  
You can see where they are going with this as we would able to sell round the clock live fixtures from different parts of the world .
Im more onboard after watching Richo , Hope the clubs grasp it quick.
