[QUOTE=Sir Les Patterson]the suncorp stadium is fantastic went to a few of the rugby world cup (sic) games in there /QUOTE]

Why give mention to the other code that delights in destroying rugby league?
On the night the new rugby season starts in the UK, the RFU are at it again distracting the deserved publicity to its new spin in the possible signing of Andy Farrell from Wigan Warriors to the dark side!

There can never be harmony between to two codes as long as union has its ulterior motives!

23 million watched the rugby (union) world cup?? My @rse! 2 million more like worldwide according to the true figures.

Don't be so paranoid. Anyone coming over here should enjoy all codes, including AFL.

I doubt if anyones going out to destroy league.

Don't get me wrong, Leeds played well, and as world club champions so they should, but at least 3 forward passes (1 leading to a converted try, puts a different perspective on a 12 - 16 score line) and Richard Horne taken out (off the ball) right in front of the ref by Willie Poching and then needing treatment. As if we haven't got enough injury problems already!!!!

Maby the rain got in Kirkpatricks eyes .

Thanks for the replies re: clubs around Coffs, I'll give them a look when I get over there. Now need to convert Dad from cricket and Aussie Rules to real sports

PS nothing wrong with London, I think they're a good side (better than when they known as Fulham when they first started out)!

Gutted with the Hull score last night. We could have snatched it at the end if Saxton hadn't meesed up the play the ball. Doh!
Oh well, my second team, London, in action tomorrow so expecting better things from them, even thoguh I can't go cos I'm working.
I'm definitely hoping to take in some NRL games when I arrive in Aus for a bit of travelling in June. Might try for a Brisbane game and one of the Syndey area teams.
Will be great to compare the difference in atmosphere, game day experience and standard of play from Super League

Time to let the only 'original' Hull team have a say on this site. Come on ROVERS!!!!!

Anyway, Im heading towards Melbourne in a few months and was wondering if anybody had any contact with any of the local junior teams in the area. (plus a few free tickets to the storm wouldn't go a miss)!!!
I'm a qualified coach and would like to get involved over there.

Cheers

I will be looking to see a few Lions games this coming season. Few of us plan a to take in a game or two at the Gabba, but may look to get to Suncorp as well.

Better avoid league then as you'll be bored to tears. Watch Union instead for real entertainment. Super 12 starts soon, Queensland has a team in it, although they are crap.

Darren&Leanne

Didnt see the game but was kept updated via text whilst at work.
Sounds like Hull were ` robbed `. Oh well, The points for Leeds then.

Now u know how london feels as we always seem to get the rought deal with decisions and TV replays against the bigger clubs lol

London are a good side but not consistant enough - it was so disappointing last season we were lucky not to be relagated which would probably have ended the club - We seem 2 either sign second rate or over the hill Aussies never any big british names!!!!! - good luck to Hull think they'll make the playoffs again

TheRossers

Wow, I didn't realise any still existed! - won't mention the pre season game.

"Shoot the B*#$ard, shoot the B*#$ard" you know the rest of the words!!!!!!!!!

Would be good if you guys could make it into Super League soon, get back some of that old rivalry of the late 70's

TheRossers

That all depends if we have a full squad at the end of the season we're already down key players! Surley we can't go another season carrying loads of sickies.

Good luck to Shaun McRae and the South's.

Keep taking that prescription Amazulu, wont be long now when ones eyes will truly be opened.

DianneH68

You beat me to it!
Anyone see Leigh v Hudds last night? Jeez, what a shocker of a game!
Still bet it's not as bad as the 'entertainment' that will be on show as Twickers today

JohnoBronco

LOL London to win super league yes I am joking

brisnick
