Was interesting hearing what KC blamed for the gulf in class between the 2 leagues. He has a point.'"
What did he say?
The school systems, youth systems, through to the academy, reserves....It stems from the start, that's why they are better at Rugby than us. It's drilled into them from an early age, when it comes to professional level, they're like well oiled machines. We will never compete with them until we grow the sport in this country - it's impossible. Ok, we can compete every now and again in a one-off WCC or an international game, but on a whole - we are nowhere near them! I hate to say it but it's true! I went to a school in St Helens, a RL town, and there was no rugby at all....you think that would happen in NSW or Queensland - not a chance.

Look at this article and tell me whether he has a grip on reality: m.sthelensstar.co.uk/sport/14301 ... onsistent/
He seriously says, and I quote, "You take away the three breakaway tries from the offload, the little kick and the bomb that Jack Owens lost that gives you a different scoreline..." Well obviously!!!!

| Plus if you completely reverse the score, saints would have won so we weren't far off.

That's the sort of nonsense I used to say when I was 10 watching us get mullered by Wigan. Embarrassing stuff really.
