Quote ="wild one"Having read the back of a National newspaper today got me thinking is our game a Olympic sport as I truly do not know, and if not would this not only be a way of blooding our younger players but also a way of spreading the game world wide, opinions please.'"
I can't agree with this. I think the whole olympic 'sport' business is a joke. For instance, who really cares who the olympic football champions are? To put RL on the world stage in the olympics won't make it a worldwide sport. It will just draw players away from clubs probably when they can least afford it.
I really don't agree with all these add on 'sports' to the olympics - there are far too many events already, some of them have no right whatsoever to be associated with sport (Not including RL in this statement of course!)
