mate dont people on TRL read posts anymore? i said nrl games.

i just find it funny when people make snide comments about rlfans and then post on here.

if i dont like a site, i dont post on it

quite a few posts about how "intellectual" they are etc and how all the childish arguments are on here

if youd read some of the recent threads there youd see the flaws in this

comments along the lines of "those kind of posts are suitable for rlfans, not here" and then they spend pages arguing the most irrelevant point

The cross code section is the funniest.

Full of dumb rah rah types.

You seem to be slipping. After page after page where you do nothing but debunk things that I never said, you are actually complaining because I did the same to you.

Tough.



Of course we have. We won the World Cup there in 1972. Where did I say that we had never played there?

You need to explain the difference between fans at an NRL game and a SOO/international game for your point to make any sense. Surely these would be Australian games that have a decent atmosphere?

I've posted on the VT for 11-12 years and I used to run my own site on the rivals.net website which caused the creation of the RLfans network which later incorporated the VT. I therefore feel free to criticise the direction in which it has gone whilst still posting on here. The fact that I post about 10 times less than I once did tells you all you need to know.

It speaks wonders that you found a more natural home at RLfans.

I love this place tbh
I can't see myself going elsewhere

and the whole youve got to be nice to the union fans, we should all forget about the past, hold hands and sing kumbya.

a RU ref. moderating a forum where people are supposed to be anti RU is just wrong, wrong, wrong.

it would be like putting one of our resident flatcappers in charge of the CC or toulose subsections here

i just find it very hypocritical when people sneer at another site then still post on it

if you dont like the debate on here, argue with the people on here that you think dont meet your standards.

but going on another site and sneering at this one, then posting on this one, is fairly hypocritical to me.

i prefer this site. the moderators arent a RU ref., and the volume of posters is much larger so the threads move more quickly than they do on TRL

ive still got a few people over there who are friends but it was getting boring having the same debates with a few people

on top of the lack of volume, you get people who see themselves as "intellectual" and make snide comments (like yours re. this site) but really dont know much about RL.

keep up the hypocrisy, its quite funny mike

Ha back to your best.

If somebody had put a flatcapper in charge of Crusaders then they probably wouldn't be staring into the abyss right now.

so flat cappers arent in charge at oldham, keighly, fax, whitehaven or any of the many other heartland nl1 and 2 clubs that have experienced financial troubles in past years?




i wouldnt trust a flat capper to put out my garbage, god forbid do something as important as running an expansion club

the future of the game needs to be in the hands of people with vision and creativity. not people who still dont know how to use a fax, let alone an email

yeah i have been enjoying it more on here tbh.

still you and others can still talk about me all you want over there, its endearing being missed like that.

more fun over though mate, more people trying to actually talk about RL rather than airy, fairy BS.

I'm glad you concede I have taught you a bit about French rugby league.

I watched a bit of the 1954 French Championship Final last night: Bordeaux v Mille.

And a game featuring Lyon at Stade George Lyvet from 1955.

You know those two teams that never existed...

sonic hedgehog is looking worse as this continues

throw in the towel mate.

Nobody thinks that Oldham, Keighley, Fax, Whitehaven should be in Super League. They wouldn't be able to cope with the financial pressures.

Yet somehow you think that Crusaders ought to be even though it is obvious to everybody that won't be around much longer.

The only thing you taught me is that other forumites were right, you are worse than dally (and that's saying something).

You even think Barcelona won the French league. That's how clueless you are.

What are you talking about numbskull?

It wasn't that long ago you were begging me for a copy of the footage I mentioned on another forum.

Shame I told you to get stuffed...

Like Catalan Dragons?

Yes, a merger between two clubs that had played a lower level of RL for 50+ years.

Save your typing - it's like banging your head against a brick wall.

in front of a few hundred fans combined

lets not bother pretending that RL was a big part of the culture in perpignan (and the wider catalonia) before Les Catalans, it was barely a footnote on the sporting landscape

Where did you get that info from? Is there a web site with the details?

I think you are hallucinating again.

Northern Catalonia has many rugby league clubs not just the ones that merged to form UTC (and it was three clubs not two).
