Even Moley has been caught out on it.

Staggered by that one. How anyone could think it would be real blows my mind but it’s outstanding because of it. I hope Cleary himself has seen it and had a chuckle.

It's the Lockers posters on his wall which is the icing on the cake.

Welsby is as quick as if not quicker than half the 6’s in the NRL, but then I wouldn’t expect you to know that because you gave up watching RL 2 years ago because you didn’t agree with clubs standing up to racism

He was too busy giving Roby a tribute on Instagram.
Didn’t do the same for lockers when he retired because he’d never heard of him

So this game is in a couple of months and we still don’t know how we can buy tickets to watch it, or even where it will be played?
You announce the game and ride the enthusiasm to sell tickets. Not announce the game then wait weeks and weeks for people to spend money on other things.
Not blaming Wigan by the way, as I’m sure it’s not their fault (although not having a dedicated stadium won’t help), it’s just incredibly frustrating. I initially had a few southerners keen to come to this with me, said I’d look at tickets, can’t find anything and by the time they are released the initial excitement may have waned and they may not bother.

The money RL misses out on is criminal.
Tickets to this big game would make good Xmas presents too.
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!
