I'm delaying naming my fantasy NRL squad until I know who is getting charged with rape/betting scandal/drunken behaviour

Can you imagine wanting to watch Rugby League? It is just for poor Northern monkeys who don't have the skill to play football or proper rugby. I mean, why does League even bother with a scrum

Just so you know, they retain the scrum to draw half the defending team out of the back line to open things up for an attacking move. Interestingly the laws were changed to make the game more exciting, rather than the opposite that you might be used to
I sometimes enjoy watching rugby but the overall skill level and flow of the game sometimes leaves me disappointed after watching Australian rugby league. I'd say in general the kiwi's are the only exception to that.

On average, Australian rugby league players are more skilful than the worlds rugby players.

Everybody knows that Footballers are precious and Tevez is a Tosser. I don't get why Duncan Ferguson gets sent to jail for headbutting an opponent yet Willie Mason Knocks out an England player and everyone thinks its all part of the game. Rugby league is a game for blokes who don't have the skills to play real football but have the size to have a good pub fight.

Shows how much you Southern scum know about football. That's a list of the English cities with most 1st division/Premier League titles.
At the end of this season United will have equalled the efforts of all the London clubs combined.
