| Quote jonh="jonh"It has been for the last 5 years in this country.'"
i was only looking at the crowds this weekend
just to pluck one out of the air quins v warrington just over 3K how can the game survive like that. IMO and i will probably get shot down dont think bringing in french and welsh sides is going to help. I have always said and will say it again we should look to cumbria and merge some of the lower sides around the northwest to bring them forward.
When my brother in law played at landon broncos they were bailed out of 2.5million pounds worth of debt i would sooner see that money being spent on lower teams to bring them up to scratch. |

| Quote Cruncher="Cruncher"Even in Wigan, many of our youth RL teams have lost players to football.'"
Norwich City's Lee Croft was a very good Rugby League player.
Although he was a footballer at the weekend on Manchester City's books, he played for Abraham Guest along side me and our basic aim was to give it to Crofty in space. If we did this then he simply would have been caught and he scored some awesome tries and RL circles watched him closely.
Unfortunately, in the second or third year Manchester City took him away where his ties were cut from Rugby League altogether.
....Similar story to Ryan Giggs. |

Just out of interest, where did you see the game? On Setanta or can you get NRL matches another way?

Shouldn't this be discussed on the NRL forum?
Barrett doesn't play for us anymore, remember?

God - no, we have enough drums at matches as it is, without them to jumping on the 'band' wagon.  |

| Speaking of Barrett, what on earth is Tony Smith going on about?
Quote Matt (King) has just got to get on with playing rugby league. We need to rebuild his confidence which is low, like it is with many of the players.
"Matt (King) has just got to get on with playing rugby league. We need to rebuild his confidence which is low, like it is with many of the players.
"Some of us have got short memories. Trent Barrett was pretty ordinary in his first year at Wigan and people were wondering what all the fuss was about but, by the time he left, everybody said 'how good is Trent Barrett'.'"

Barrett was fantastic in his first year at Wigan followed by an inconsistent second year. |

Has Smith been on the old cough medicine? He does mean Trent "I should have been Man of Steel in my first season, but was robbed by a Saints substitute" Barrett? |
