Shame the Aussie teams haven't beaten '2nd tier' teams in 6 years.

If they really believed that it was a second tier competition they wouldn't be saying anything. Aussies only start slating when they are worried

It really is Leeds v the world these days and it won’t surprise me if it will be Leeds v World XL if we beat the Sea Eagles and become SL champs again.

The fact that Daniel Anderson can’t move on from his two Grand Final losses just shows what a bitter tw[ia[/it he really is. Isn’t this the guy who gets advice from the likes of Benitez and Ferguson who both deep down share their hatred of Leeds whatever the sport. This just further proves that DA coached a team that anyone could of coached and won the championship like he did.

Brian McClennan on the other hand is a decent coach who could coach Wakefield with their current squad to beat these Sea Eagles who will sour high in the game against the Rhinos but will get sucked into our engine.

That's just a beautiful image, right there.

What next?

Dean Lance giving presentations on racial equality?

A bit close to the bone but good.

Not defamatory either as it was proven m'lud.

It was.
I must admit i missed sterling when he first got dropped i'll never forget that try in the old world club challenge or him getting cumberland thrown onto his shoulder by tommy martyn iirc.

OK, no doubting that the top few teams would finnish mid table to top 8 over there but are you saying Catalan would even be able to compete over there? Cas would not win a game. Hull KR who I am expecting to be a top 5 team this year would win maybe 3 or 4 if the luck goes there way.

Yes, Leeds and Saints would make the play offs (5th-8th) but the rest are nowhere near the standard making the comp as a whole, a 2nd tier comp.

At the risk of being a pedant, and being too lazy to go back and seek out the full judgement...

Wasn't what was proven simply that Leeds as his employer did not sufficiently investigate Sterling's initial complaint, rather than the nature of the complaint itself?

Nor would they bother to come over here to compete in it.

Unconscious racism based on Leeds inability to act on complaints made against the coach.

So it didn't prove that Dean Lance was racially prejudiced then, just that Leeds had failed to investigate such claims against him?

Nonsense.

The chance to go spend a few weeks in a diferent place is a great oportunity to build team spirit and bond well. It is good prep for the NRL season too as they can get out of the heat (although the last couple of days have only ben around 20 in Sydney) and try somthing different.

That try was mid 1997 though and Sterling was dropped after a series of lack lustre efforts in pre season friendlies prior to the start of the 2000 season. Pretty standard stuff especially at 35 years of age.

The years had finally caught up and Lance was looking at alternatives on the wing with Cummins, Senior, Walker, St Hilaire, Rivett and Pratt taking the roles. Sterling buckled down, got his fitness up and forced his way back in to the side mid season.

Good aerobic exercise that basketball you know...

Alas I was never one of them boys.

It depends if you call unconscious racism racial prejudice.

Whether intentional or not you still wouldn't want someone giving presentations on racial equality if they'd been at the centre of such a case.

Dodgy ground innit.

Like I read in paper that fella of Emmerdale, he was accused of rape, was suspended while it was ongoing, he was found not guilty, but since has not been allowed to return, apparently 'its hard to fit him back in a story line'!! yeh right, in a soap!! It just seems that this guy is 'a bit of a lad' so there's no smoke without fire. Now is that right or wrong?

sterling asked all the black players at leeds to back him. none would. that speaks volumes.
according to my mate who was media coach at the time sterling was as welcome in the changing room with the other players as clap in a brothel

its a scandel

Typical Aussies



How many Challenge World Cup games have NRL teams won? Super League is more than second tier thank you very much.
