Im not saying their the favourites but they have a well balanced efficient squad, if they got there I wouldn't be surprised.

Spot on BB......Good point well made, theres a hell of a lot of water to flow under the bridge before Old Trafford !!!!!

Will that be you're response to every end of season prediction?

There are at least 6 teams I would put above them based on what I saw at w/end..Wigan, Wire, Leeds, Saints, Huddersfield & Bradford.

Not as much as his jumpers do for me.

You know what I meant, that is why I put based on what I saw at e/end

Seems BB is ok as long as your opinion doesnt include us, thought she was a friendly B&W but seems to have boycotted our board since the weekend. We dont bite honest

Depends who's fishing.

it is at certain times i believe



usually when there's league on

I have posted on your board since w/end, I enjoy talking to any rl fan however your board is getting really silly with the pug & co!

Just because I fancy 6 other team before yours to make it to the G/Final does not make me unfriendly

It would appear that the variations are country-based, rather than regional. This from the BBC2 website:

Regional variations for BBC Two

Please choose a region for the appropriate schedule.

* England
* Northern Ireland
* Northern Ireland (Analogue)
* Scotland
* Wales
* Wales (Analogue)

here in the sunny midlands we get the RL show in the middle of the night. Why the BBC dont show a live sunday afternoon match on 2 if sky would let them may help with a bit of focus and growth for the sport.

However the lateness of show does go to show what the Beeb actually think of Rugby League

I suppose the same could be said about the timing of the regional Championship football programmes , they are on around 23:30 hrs.

If you don't like cooking programmes or Nick Knowles your out of luck sometimes with viewing options.

I think its getting more sureal rather than silly, its like taking a trip through the looking glass on the latest willie mason thread!!

I must take point with your first para, you surely can't include EXPRO or whatever name he's using nowadays.

Only 6 other teams before us, I thought you'd be up 12, (be 13 tonight if FC win).

I believe we will have a better idea how both our teams are after this w/end, far too much emotion in a derby, plus 1st match of the season etc....Plus we now have Phelps & Obst to add and you have Big Willie.
Wigan, Wire, Saints, Bradford & Hudds all looked very good last w/end plus one can never rule Leeds out of the mix. I actually also think Cas & Crusaders could make some noises this year and will both push for top 8, should be a good season, all to play for.

sky plus is your friend

I wasn't that impressed with them tbh, Leeds IMO where pretty lucky with the VR and got the result. As said though, it was the first game of the season and there is plenty of improvement to come.
