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.

However,what this means in reality is, you will get less penalties awarded they will get more.  | | | |

my other big RFL gripe is that they have taken a genuinely good opportunity of playing the RL World Cup in a 'dead' summer in the sporting calender, but have proceeded to mess it all up. So we have scenarios where the most attractive game in the tournament England-Australia, is played at the English RL heartland of Cardiff Meanwhile England and NZ don't even meet in the group stage at all.
The city with the biggest following gets the minnows playing there and the oft tried and failed welsh dump gets the big one. Beggars belief.

| Quote UllFC="UllFC"I completely agree.
Obviously my views on the game are clouded by the fact we've seen about 1 decent/average season in 5 years (2010) but I am sick and tired of leaving a game and only talking about the abysmal decisions of the officials. I am sick and tired of seeing games where the Ref just allows both sides to play offside all game, which results in players being tackled as soon as they play the ball, allowing little attacking play.
I would have been in favour of the Stobart deal if it stipulated that ALL Stobart trucks would be painted in the SL livery over say a 2 year period, as this would have meant a large presence on the roads. Instead we have got a handful of trucks painted, and no cash to go with it.
SKY's commentary team are getting worse and worse every year, and now seem to offer nothing but irrelevant facts 'PlayerX last knocked on in the 3rd tackle in 2006' or just hype up games that even the casual RL fan knows isn't a classic (recent England-Exiles games) I know they have to try and avoid viewers switching off, but there is nothing wrong with constructive criticism of how a team is playing or on the quality of a game.

Nicely summed up. Pretty much how I feel. Sick of the out-of-favour clubs being the RFL's whipping boys and us fans paying for the privilege.
The city of Hull's fans must fork out more than any other clubs' fans to travel and put money in other clubs' pockets and we still don't get rewarded with a decent international, despite last years' Kiwi game at the KC being a brilliant ambassador for the game. | | | |
