Brilliant episode, love the dower, manc sense of humour 😅 Some really good points raised about the state of the game from a financial standpoint, completely unsustainable & quite worrying that we still don't have a structure in place that isn't reliant on mega rich benefactors bailing clubs out...interesting times we live in.

Probably need to franchise it, don't they? League owns the clubs, clubs own the league. It's absolutely insane that the biggest club in the biggest market for the game in the northern hemisphere are only just scraping by.

On the Samoa sin bin, i think you guys are missing a little context with watching in the ground and not on TV. The yellow wasn't given because that particular high tackle was yellow worthy by itself, it was given because this was the 4th piece of ill discipline that the ref had to pull Samoa up for and he felt that then deserved punishment. This also counters your argument about subbing a player on after a yellow. I like the idea and understand it, but in the case of Samoa and their ill discipline letting them sub a player on and continuing with 13 when the point was to punish them for multiple transgressions would be letting them off the hook and make the threat of a yellow ineffective. A bit like how it is ineffective in football.

Last year the pacific championship was a fizzer, no one knew about it and it wasn't promoted. This year they have promoted and hyped it. The NZ V Kangaroos game played in sth Island sold out 2 weeks in advance, the final has sold out mid week. Tv ratings are up 40% on last year. For some context, Aus v Tonga rated higher than Wallabies v Sth Africia, Fiji v PNG rated higher than Wallabies v All Blacks. The pacific championship has big potential, not quite Origin level yet but headed in the right direction.

I like the idea of July internationals. However, in order for it to interfere with what is by far Australia's biggest league TV draw in the state of origin, England/GB will need to become a legitimate threat. We'll need to smash NZ and Kangaroos consistently before they will make any changes to their seasons to accommodate this. I'm afraid that the main thing holding the international game back is England not beating Australia for many years

I grew up in Wigan in the eighties and nineties, we did not get bored of going to Wembley! Also Wigan didn’t *only* buy players (we did buy a lot) but Clarke, Farrell, Betts, Robinson, Radlinksi, Edwards and a lot of others all came through the ranks.

I’d love it if Hunslet got back up there. My fiancé’s Great Great Grandad played for Hunslet and was apart of the All Four Cups winning side of 1907-08. His name was Fred Farrar… regarding international game it really should happen during a break in season - Martin is spot on - how can there people who run the game look at themselves in the mirror - it’s not hard to work out !

KR have the tools because they stuffed them at Craven Park were the forwards got on top and Rovers played the off load game,hopefully the two gaps have been filled that let Rovers down,ie goal kicking and another big go forward player in JWH.Think KR scored the most tries this year but missed the most kicks which probably cost them the LLS.

Can you discuss how big of a sport rugby league is in England or the UK? I get frustrated hearing so many so called Rugby League fans in our sport play their own game down? … they say we are a minor sport only and we are dying - but yet we forget that we are the 4th most popular team sport in England, we are overall a popular TV sport throughout the UK, we may not have that mainstream attention down south but in the north we are a major sport… we have more TV coverage than ever have done in the past - both on free to air tv and satellite - not to mention all the streaming platform - I also feel like we see more rugby league news on national news more than ever - we have had rugby league feature on BBC breakfast quite a lot of times last few years with guests in studio. I am tired of all the doom and gloom - attendances are a bit up and down yeah but you don’t get 60,000 plus fans for major finals (GF and CC) in this country if you don’t have a strong presence and popularity … we have a great foundation. We need to start selling ourselves there is so much potential and one thing that many other sports don’t have in UK but we do is that sense of community and working class spirit - this is something unique and to be proud of .. I can only think of boxing that has this to some level and that has a strong degree of popularity… Football has long lost it at the highest level, Cricket has and Union has imo and Union probably never had it

Who is going to stop Wigan. Well, as we all know, given enough time either Saints or Leeds as always. The real question is who is going to break these three clubs strangle hold of the sport. In three or four seasons it will be, who will beat Saints, then a couple of years later Leeds are back. My question is when will this change.
