Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Quote ="Wigg'n"Yeah, well done on your two Championships and John Player Special Trophy 30 years ago. If that repeats you could well be looking forward to a Play-off semi final appearance and a CC Final runners up medal.

Typical arrogance from a bunch of plastic Mancs.

Quote ="TheElectricGlidingWarrior"Do you realise how bitter you two sound? The sheer audacity of a team spending money on players eh? No place in our sport for that!'"
 icon_lol.gif" alt="icon_lol.gif" title="Laughing" /> Bitter, as if
Your playing budget was probably 3 or 4 times most clubs in the league (with the possible exception of the under-performing Leeds), so yes you're right I don't think that's good for our sport or any other. It's why - like most elite sports - we're much better off under the salary cap model. It's also why if it was down to me I'd stick a massive asterisk next to any Wigan trophies from that decade  icon_wink.gif" alt="icon_wink.gif" title="Wink" />

Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"Leon Pryce is a total waste of money. The Pryce family was educated at the School of Laziness. Karl was even worse.
Didn't anybody at Hull FC notice Leon's lack lustre performances at Catalans --- except for a brief spell last year when he was angling for a new contract?
Once Catalans decided to sign Todd Carney, Leon spat the dummy and decided he didn't want to play hard any more. So he was dropped in the last rounds of 2014.
Leon should be loaned to London Broncos for the rest of the ">year.'"
This post just shows your total lack of knowlage of the game. As someone who sat on the sideline of the derby I can asure you Price worked his butt off but could not do it all on his own, by the last 10 mins he was out on his feet. What made the difference was Rovers three & somtimes four play makers running the show & the rest of our squad were not to bad either.

Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"My account might not all add up but some of it adds up, namely that once Leon Pryce knew that his wasn't going to be staying with Catalans his performance level went down. His "inconsistency" of performance is something that has been noted at his other clubs. The Catalans coach decided to drop Leon Pryce because he was not playing at his capacity. No one doubts his talent. What everyone has noted is that he is not always performing to his capacity. I considered his performance against Hull KR substandard, to put it kindly (notwithstanding the bogus try he scored because of referees' mistakes). He provided little leadership. Did you think he was actually playing well by his own standards of excellence?
BTW I think that even playing well within his limits, Leon Pryce would be a good acquisition by London ">Broncos.'"
I can't comment on his performances for Catalans as I only really saw them play twice when they played FC. I can only comment on his performances for FC this season which have been good, compared to the rest of the team anyway. As somebody else has said he's been a good player for us but he can't do it all on his own, needs runners & back up for a start. You're original post was incredibly harsh but I guess that would be different if he had an Australian or French accent.

Hull KR fans are the Leigh fans of SL
