RL will never be a top sport in the UK while the rules are changed every single season.



So lets change them again eh!

Come on.... Get real. RL will only ever be a minority sport in this country enjoyed by the relative few. Face it. Not saying it's right. The two codes will converge and be one again....... Unless we are bold and continue to march ahead with rule changes thus maintain some distance.



" Every single season " ? ? ?

It seems that there's a rule change of some description or other every year.

If it improves the game as a spectacle so be it ..... Was that not the whole idea for the game's bitter inception ? Get those paying spectators through the turnstiles to better support the professionals' wages ?

So, as an example, a player who picks up a loose ball in his own half because an opposition attack breaks down and runs in a straight line down the pitch not having to beat any defenders would see his try rewarded more than if his team used skill and creativity to get round a defence and create a try with a move started in the opponents half?

Lets have an 'Endzone' and proper forward passes.

I don't see how we can hope to attract new spectators when there is no consistency in the rules or application of them by the officials.

Just how many long supporting attendees know all the rules.... Rules that have been around for a very long time ?

Most are entirely ignorant. Some like me are not entirely familiar with all the rules..... And go along more to watch a hopefully entertaining match. I would suggest most pay their money for that element rather than for the purity of the ( non consistently anyway ) applied rules.

lol made me laugh that, best just change it after 8 months then, won't be seeing an 8 point McGuire classic tonight will we.

Yeah ! why not ? There is always the risk of luck winning tries in any game. Just look at the two wigan tries tonight that effectively won the game.

You're obviously not a professional comedian. Don't give up the day job.

...and YOU're just a very sad pathetic individual with no hope at all
