New Year's Wish for rugby league? : Mon Jan 01, 2018 8:13 am  

What is your New Year's wish for rugby league in Britain and worldwide?

Re: New Year's Wish for rugby league? : Mon Jan 01, 2018 8:48 am  

I want to see:-
1, A concerted effort to get the game played at every school from age 10 upwards. It is the only way to grow & sustain our great sport.
2, Go back to playing most games on a Sunday/Saturday afternoon thus making it a real family inclusive sport.
3, lastly I would like to stay healthy enough to watch another 50 years of league action (well even us old folk can have daft wishes)
Happy new year.

1. Hull FC to do the triple.
2. Me to get a contract with FC and score the winning try in the 80th minute of the grand final.
3. Get 25,000 in the KCOM for the derby and put 100 points on KR.
4. Get 3 full grounds for the NZ series and have 3 exciting, closely fought games that get massive TV audiences and make all those southern nancies realise that league is the only sport for the serious sports fan.
5. Tomkins to shave his beard off.
6. Toulouse and Catalans to go under (just saying that to annoy you Jean )

But of course wishes don't have to be realistic

To be properly recognised as "the greatest game" by the mainstream media

Abolish or greatly increase the salary cap so we can attract and retain our best talent

My wish is that Toulouse and Toronto both get promoted to Super League for 2019, and that a pathway into Super League for other North American or French clubs is created by a promise of further enlargement when necessary for legitimate and credible expansion.

If he ends up looking like Wayne Rooney, it would be a blessing.
Hundreds of quid (maybe £12.50 in Cas) and he will still look like a ****.

I think it cost less than that - he used the 'pocket fluff' he found whilst he was in Danny McGuires pocket back in October.

How about a return to an autumn/winter season?? Stuff TV summer schedule shortages!
