I think the original change to the format was to load games towards the end of the season in the hope that crowds would be allowed. That’s not the case.

I can see the sense in making a change to try and create interest however imo they have left it too late. Should have been done at least a month ago

Completely agree with you

So far it looks as though HKR and Wigan are the only SL clubs not to have had a home fixture.
Is there an explanation for this?



Perhaps, it could have something to do with both clubs along with Catalan having owners/chairmen who have been critical of the RFL over certain matters and in Wigans case also the town not getting any games in next years World Cup?

It's the same with the disciplinary system where the match review panel seemed to look for any possible offence committed by Wigan players with a microscope as shown in this weeks latest episode. Especially, any possible offences by Flower, Partington, Smithies, all of whom have had previous long suspensions along with Catalan players like McIIorum and the Tomkins Brothers who have previously played for Wigan.

And to think that in the days of Central Park, the RFL never hesitated in giving special games to Wigan, but different administrators were in charge of the RFL then and not the aloof Wood and more recently Rimmer. Judging by some of the comments by Elstone who is over the Super League, he too is not a happy bunny with some things in the game.

Some questions need to be asked why the Wigan club and the town of Wigan is now being treated in this way by the RFL.

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

The reason Wigan didn't get any World Cup games was they insisted that the only games they would host were England games!!

Shhhh it's an RFL conspiracy to slight Wigan. Bring back 5 metre defensive lines, white dog poo and rickets.

No it's IL, KR, AL and George Burgess fault surely. Why didn't they play it on Tesco Car Park?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Wed Oct 28, 2020 12:00 pm  
So back on topic ...

Next season has so many unanswered squad questions:

Hastings - Does he stay or does he go
Tommy - Same
Lockers - Retire?
Budgy - Salford?
Hank - resign or release?
French - Stay or go?
Gildart - NRL or Stay?

Batty to return
JAI Field also signed?

Lachlan Lam is still unsigned at the roosters - Is he heading to SL?

Looks to be so many unanswered questions

Still looks like lots of cap movement available

Flanagan at the Roosters has gone to the Bulldogs so there's a space opened up for Lam if he can take it.

Mitchell Pierce rumoured to be rejoining.

I personally believe this halfback merry go round will have a major say on where Hastings ends up.

Flower out of contract at the end of the season, obviously was expected to join Toronto and may still do.
