What the RFL should do is offer free entry to the Olympic Stadium match to Union fans who provide an unused ticket for Saturday's game. I am being serious here - allow them to cut their losses, Farrell's boys to play in front of a paltry crowd and England RL to get a good crowd!
TO late the grand final is a sell out no seats left
If I'm reading it right, I'm not sure what a 'sold out' GF has to do with unused tickets from England v Uruguay being redeemed for England v NZ tickets on November 7th....
It's an interesting idea, can't imagine the RFL suggesting it but it would certainly ruffle a few feathers...
I love Jamie and have done since he was 10 years old.

Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.
Obviously not knowing exactly who is available makes it a little hard but ill go on the fact theyre in unless they are publicly out so its G burgers out so far who'd be a shoe in for me anyway.
What ever NZ comes even a second string one will be good, we can ride on he back of the crap RU team and show that we have a Rugby Team that can win something this year, we need to pick the best team available to us, and not just pick kids for the future, I think having a few in the squad yes, but knowing they are there for the experience more than anything and pick a best 17/18 man team and go with it for all 3 games
Mine would be
Hardaker Briscoe Watkins Reed Hall
Widdop Smith
T, Burguess Roby Graham
J. Tomkins Bateman O'Loughlin
Subs Cuthbertson Hill Walmsley S. Tomkins
Others
Currie Cooper McGilvray Williams Farrell Percival (would have been Stevie Ward if fit)
Hardaker Burgess Watkins Reed Hall Tomkins Widdop Graham Roby Walmsley Whitehead Farrell O'Loughlin
Subs Hill T Burgess Bateman Clark
Rest of squad McGillvary Percival Gale Williams (just over Josh Hodgson so he can cover half/hooker) Cooper Cuthbertson J Tomkins
My team would be something similar.Surely if your picking Cuthbertson though, he makes the 17.I would play him off the bench, would cause havoc with the offloads on the tiring NZ forwards.
