Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days.

Giants Down the Robins After Dominant First Hour
After spending the week on top of the pile, the Huddersfield Giants had a home game against a Hull KR side who were looking for their first points after an opening round loss against the Wigan Warriors. Toulouse Olympique XIII collapsed under the Giants pressure last weekend but Tony Smith´s side were likely to be a much tougher prospect.
The Giants had Jermaine McGillvary and Ricky Leutele back in the side after they missed last weeks trip to Toulouse, while KR would have to go into battle without the services of Lachlan Coote and Albert Vete.

Quote Just hoping="Just hoping"Where have all the pundits gone'"
Deciding whether Tony Smith talking about playing entertaining rugby or Vladimir Putin recognising the People’s Republic’s of Donetsk and Luhansk was more worrying. I hope I don’t regret making light of that.
Still, I dare say we’ll be better when the grounds firm up!
More seriously, Smith and Rovers did alright last year. I owe them a bit of doubt debt, so hopefully they’ll start to play themselves into some form in the coming weeks.
But, just one year, could the coach maybe talk up physicality, aggression and/or ruthlessness? Just for variety of presentation, if not outcome. 2014 wasn’t exactly a year of glory, but like shirt designs and naming infants, or the turning of the seasons, there should some cycle, some change of tenor to mark the passing of another title for the St. Wigan Rhinos. The monotony is disorientating… like we’re in the RL backrooms.

With due respect to Just Hoping, I am pretty much the sole voice here now!
Thank you though, nonetheless.
