No, you just think I’m a troll because i say things you don’t like even though they are true. Rugby league in this country is on life support and that’s a fact. Whilst rugby union isn’t. 80000 people turned up for a friendly not involving England. Could you imagine a friendly between NZ and Fiji in this country at rugby league ? 3k tops.

I want the same for rugby league but unfortunately a number of clubs (Wigan not being one) have ruined it for everyone else.

The MRP are doing their bit. Just the 11 citings for Saints this week, including Sam Royle being cited for, I kid you not, slowing the play the ball down. Despite ruminating over the weekend they were unable to find a rule they could fit this in as a ban. But at least they managed to sneak in an imaginary charge for Joe Batchelor so he becomes bannable if he does anything...

Meanwhile Liam Bryne does the same tackle Matty Lees copped a ban for and doesn't even get charged and Sam Tomkins gets away with kneeing the tackler because he's Sam Tomkins. The MRP are moving to a lair next season rather than an office.

No, I think you're a troll because you're a troll. More specifically you're a Union troll. Why do you persist with the pretence otherwise when you know it and we all know it? There's literally no point.

I think being cited 11 times and not getting a ban is a win dont you.
If Wigan was cited the same amount and not getting a pIayer banned I would be happy and Kaid would be playing this week.
I do agree with you about Sam.

Can you not answer the question of RU getting 5 times the amount of revenue but having teams fold and some teams still struggling,all is not rosie in the garden of the RU.
80,000 turned up why, I dont know,Lemmings spring to mind !
Hell of a lot of freebies I suspect.

The problem is the amount of nit picking by the disciplinary, the game was a relatively quiet affair in terms of agressive physicality compared to other games this weekend but somehow they have managed to accrue 11 citings (Saints) 5 citings (Cas) completely OTT by the disciplinary.

The citing of Royle for a 3 second laying on was a professional foul, I don't ever recall the disciplinary ever creating a selective citing before for something like that. If that becomes the norm then maybe the next thing will be citing someone for offside.

Ok,but the good thing is you didnt get any bans.
We all know they are "nit picking"and it just isnt Stains that are falling foul of it.
Like I say cite all they want but if no bans are the result thats a win and it shows the panel up at the same time double win I say.

I don’t respond to bully’s. That’s why I choose to ignore you and that’s why I will continue to do so.

You've just done the opposite

Thankyou for that,no more insane PMs from you then.
From a Bully to another Bully.

I guess thats the end of what could have been a beautiful friendship.

Pains me to say it but I think it’s Wigans year this year. Catalans just don’t have the mentality for the big games and Saints are just too disjointed in attack. Wigan seem to be hitting form at the right time.

I feel it’s theirs to lose

You can stop that right now

Enjoy the championship next season

You really are a nasty child.

Not bad for a team with not one player that is good enough to get in the Saints team as quoted by our resident troll,must admit with him not responding to what I say should be good fun if Wigan do knock the greatest team in the known universe off their perch.

Will TWW69 come on here thanking the officials tonight? Offsides, forward passes, knock on for last try?

You'll have to give him chance to watch the highlights on YouTube first. He'll have been too busy clapping at the Rugby Union World Cup game to realise that Saints were playing tonight.

Quite. I hope the Grand final isn't decided on the officials. That last try just shows the inept of the VR when it was a clear knock on. Next year will be a waste of money if this continues like this when we have VR at every game. The whole encounter tonight was to appease the Stains club.

You don't know your rugby it was a reap out by Lam, ref saw it, video ref saw it, fans saw it. It was that obvious on the replay I,m quite suprised you've had to post the inaccuracy.

Aye ok.

Leigh was robbed. No wonder are chairman tried to assault Kendall at half time. We will do the double this year

Chairman Derek looks like, acts like and dresses like the gay hairdresser "Kenneth" from the episodes of Benidorm in being funny, tacky and gobby. Splashes the cash for his team though.

Saints are moving inexorably towards a 5th successive grand final win, and the greatest achievement in sporting history.

It’s just all so so predicable.

I thought I was bad when it comes to being biased, but that just takes the cake. Are you talking about the Joe Batchelor try here? Bell has it in his hand and it's removed by Lam towards the Saints try line, how can it possibly be a knock on by Bell?

There was no major controversy in the game at all. The Batchelor try was the correct decision, clearly. The disallowed try for Leigh was perhaps more debatable. But Kendall saw it being touched live and called it, he was always going with no try. The video was inconclusive so they had nothing to overturn that decision. I could understand you being a little upset over that one, but again probably the correct decision.

I've seen a lot of crying from Leigh fans about the Percival tackle, but there was nothing wrong with it at all, bar the the offside. Bell's tackle on Amone was sensational as well and should really have seen a card for Amone for the knee. Shoulder contact into the stomach area with the arms wrapping, textbook tackle. I don't recall what the other two charges Leigh got were for, but there was a lot of frustration at how the game was going I guess.
