What a load of tosh.

This is what really annoys me about the RFL and the Communist Cap and the whole system atm.


The game was woeful. It's like watching reserve grade football at best, yet still it dominates "Rugby" in this country.

Ireland get all the plaudits for winning.........wait for it.......FIVE matches.

Well whoopie do.


As if that wasn't bad enough Brian O'Driscoll gets treated like a god, voted MOM etc etc

He is average at best. He would just about make the Warrington Centres (if Matt King was having a REALLY bad day ). Play him vs Gidley, Senior or Carmont and he would look like what he is, a very average rugby player.


Yet despite this the RFL fail to market our game as they should. Instead of promoting the game they drag it down via the CC. This is what makes me really angry.

Fantastic athletes, great skill and superlative commitment, handcuffed by an inept governing body who live in the 19th Century.


*Rant over"

I didn't watch it and I had fantastic evening.

Exciting for those involved with such a close scoreline but for the neutral it was absolute garbage.
How many stoppages with scrums, line outs and penalties?
Tomorrow morning's press will give the details but I'd bet that they were going on 60-70 stoppages in the 80 mins.
RL Fans would never put up with that rubbish, ever!

i dont watch that crap

how can they get 74000 watching that paying very good money and we cant fill the jjb is beyond me.

I've not watched 1 minute of this years 6 nations and I can say from reports of the games i've not missed much.

I can't be doing with it all. A super 14s game was kicking off when I was flicking channels so I thought I'd have a see if it was any better than RU in this country. One team kicked off, other team caught it and kicked it straight into touch, I turned over.

The other code 'dominated' media coverage and sold out venues for the five/six nations long before the Salary Cap. And probably still will if the Salary Cap was removed ...

In order to win the RL World Cup, England needed to win 5 games (well actually 3 would have done). To win the Four Nations we'll need to win 4. Your point?

MY point is that it isn't exactly a significant achievement.

What's YOUR point?
