Quote:The RFL have today announced that the possibility of a new "Elite" League is being looked into.
The idea of the Elite league is one borrowed from the time when Aborigines after they first began playing Rugby League in Australia. Such was the build of these new athletes that no country man of non-aboriginal origins could cope with the speed or power of them. So, in order to give the rest of the competition time to catch up, a brief and little known league was set up for the four teams of Aboriginees. The only player to remain out of this league was the infamous Dally Messenger (who the 'Dally M' medal is named after) who qualified on ancestral grounds.
Nigel Woods said "It is believed that the dominance of Hull KR is such that they are a danger to Super League, it is estimated that their average away following of 50,000 and often more is such causing such stress on stadiums through sheer mass that the each club is speding around £10,000 on reinforcement, added into the cost of extra stewards we believe that the clubs are spending £50,000 more than any other game"
Nigel also added
"I believe that Hull KR are playing such rugby that they are threatening would spoil the competition completly, they are walking over every team with ease and it is simply not a competition anymore. This was highlighted when they travelled to London, the result was such a forgone conclusion that only 3 home fans where registered as entering the stadium"
"So, we the RFL have come up with a firm 7 stage plan to fix this situation. We are creating the "East-of-hull" League, it will be funded by the revenue from the sale of the 1.2 Million season tickets Hull KR have sold this season"
"We the RFL have captured the contracts of the following players, seen as the only team able to compete with KR at this moment in time"
1. Billy Slater (c) 2. Israel Falau 3. Greg Inglis 4. Matt Gidley 5. Tony Williams 6. Darren Lockyer 7. Matt Orford 8. Steve Price 9. Cameron Smith 10. Jamie Peacock 11. Gareth Hock 12. Anthony Watmough 13. Michael Crocker 14. James Roby 15. Nathan Cayless 16. Nathan Hindmarsh 17. Jarryd Hayne
"We expect this team to last for approximatly 6 weeks before they are physically incapable of performing agianst the high flying Robins. We have also brought in top hearing specialist Joe King to maintain the players hearing, as the vocal support of Robins is so extreme it can be picked up on Richtor Scales world wide"
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS
I'M SURE THERE IS NO CORRELATION BETWEEN THE FACT THAT THE FRONT RUNNERS FOR THE 2009 MEDIA WHINGING AWARD ARE FROM GATESHEAD AND HULL FC, FORMERLY THE B*ST*RD-TWINS OF ONE OF RUGBY LEAGUE'S LOUSIER IDEAS.

Yeah but you don't beat your local rival as often as we do ours. And we didn't need a drum.

Neither do we, when we beat Hull FC in the play-offs at their place in 2007 we didnt have a drum and it was one the best away atmospheres in recent years.
We have beaten them enough times, and we have everything on my sig as well. Thats pretty good.
