Salford Huddersfield kick off been picked up by dailymail, sun etc all over sky sports news, pictures of fans fighting, kids crying, players arguing with fans, not a good look for a 'family sport' that we preach. We all want more press of RL but whenever we get it, its always for the wrong reasons.

What actually happened ? Why did it kick off?

Some issues between idiots and the ground security, boiled over near to the Salford players wives / kids. Sau and Carney jumped in to help them with Sau removing the main idiot involved.

Edit: I should have said, hats off to both Sau and Carney on this one.

They cannot exactly just ignore the crowd trouble. The longer I have watched rugby the more trouble I see at games, it's no football but it's getting more like it.

You have your head in the clouds then there is trouble at all games might only be small scale at some but it's there. And it's not just fighting it's the eliment who go in rear of south stand, foul mouthed and cannot handle the beer. It is getting less and less a family game. Two recent personal examples at the wakey game took my 4 yr olds someone shouting the c word. Had a word and got more and worse back.

At GF with the wife and kids, I got surrounded by the docks and threatened to be thrown in. It was only a Wigan family that stopped it. It's only small but it's gradually growing. Most games are not policed as teams won't pay for it, but it is getting worse.

Again got your head in clouds there is certainly more rif raf eliment at most games be it verbal abuse or physical there is more around now than when I first started going.
