getting slightly better - they were averaging over 100 points per game against them upto a few weeks ago.
All that's bad with Union is league's fault............
Yes Peter. And before Edwards, Ford et al? Why was Union crap prior to them coming along?
Bog brained Murphy..........
Let me get this right. Rugby Union was a fast-flowing game, known for open play, fast movement of the ball and lots of tries prior to the arrival of rugby league coaches? What a pile of b*****ks! The reality is that the fitness and speed that come with overt professionalism have cruelly exposed the flaws in RU as a spectacle. We realised the problems and dealt with them. They can't do the same as to do so would be to admit the problems inherent in the form of their game and their rules. I've made a conscious effort to give RU a chance recently. I've sat and watched internationals and premiership games. The sad fact is it just doesn't cut the mustard when compared to RL.

No one ever stopped the church by pulling down the steeple,
You'll never beat the system by bombing number 10,
Systems aren't just made of bricks, they're also made of people,
You may send them into hiding but they'll be back again
