I don't know if this has been mentioned anywhere else.

Well done to everybody at Belle View last night for not making any noise at all during the minutes silence for Leon Walker.

Lets hope that this is the same at every game this weekend.

I thought the Leon Pryce songs might have been given the night off though. Poor Eddie was trying his hardest to talk over "You're getting b*mmed in the shower".

Why? He is an embarrasement to the game

it was the same at wigan, the silence was fully respected by all, a good fitting tribute IMO

I wonder if anyone thought about doing a minutes applause instead.

Some cynical people claim it was purely invented at soccer games where fans couldn't be trusted to remain silent, but I think its a fitting and uplifting way to celebrate a life. That said, if Leon's mum and dad wanted silence then of course its their call.

Does anyone else thing appluase has its place in this context?

i would think all rugby fans would respect the minutes silence, and rightly so, and well done to all last night.

I'd say applause is only fitting when paying tribute to someone who passed at a grand old age having being able to live their life to the full.

Silent remembrance under these tragic circumstances is more appropriate imo

apart from the fluttering of a flag the silence was very well resp[ected at the JJB/DW/WHATEVER last night
proof again that RL supporters are the dogs!

well done to all

I know what you mean. I'm trying to think where I've heard the applause and it probably is someone like Trevor Foster. As you say, the death of someone in old age.

i dont like minute's applause's

leave that for the disrespcectful football lot i say
