I don't get Salford, one minute they're crying poverty, next minute they're signing new players and inviting fans on a trip to watch them do their pre season training in Portugal

Sad for the club, and for the sport in general.
Feel for the supporters. Sadly, theyve lived beyond their means for too long.
I can see a bit of a further firesale here, like ww had in 2013, to raise desperately needed revenue.

Glad to see the six again rule improved. Not before time either.
The new ruck rules seem ok though making sense of them on the field might be another thing altogether.

It's not a well written article - took three reads before being sifted. If Bongser's interpretation is correct, he welcomes all the changes but announcing them at this stage gives coaches nearly three months to come up with new ways to buck the system - "Same as it ever was" but feel sure that our Talking Heads will champion it!

Salford placed in "special measures" I know we won't pay a fee but their are one or 2 players I wouldn't mind from Salford.
Feels like fans have had their pants down with the crowd funding nonsense. Has a Bradford feel about it
Sounds a right s*** sandwich tbh. Won't be many minutes into the new season before we see a penalty given for the markers being incorrectly positioned while an illegal ptb is ignored. Or vice versa.

I agree. But the reverse applies too.
They'll stop coming if the product on the field isn't good, but they'll reach a ceiling if we are successful on the field and not off it.
And in the past 40-50 years that ceiling has been about 5k.
Which side of the Pennines is Newcastle on or even Cardiff Les ?

I think its pretty pathetic and annoying the club is asking for volunteers again.
Not only is it terrible business its a lie to the people who do volunteer. I can imagine people going to it on the premise entry to the game is free. But the ability to see a full game is not viable . Turnstiles and car park staff are not going to shut or stop working at kick off.
Unpaid staff will not have the skills or capcity to deal with difficult situations.are they gonna be first aid trained, fire marhsall health and safety, crowd safety. Читать дальше...

Perhaps the RFL was listening when RS was talking after all.

These seem very significant to me - the game may look very different next year.

Reckon we should be looking at winning 8 of the first 10, 7 at worst.

Not so long ago this central funding or parachute payment would have certainly been a lifeline to us and certainly many other championship club no doubt . We find ourselves in an enviable position that’s it’s no longer a deal breaker or a ball buster , and it is what it is . The days of simply turning up 10 mins before kick off and in our case recently, sneaking out before the end . All clubs whichever division need to up their game on the before and after hospitality as way of mitigating the lost revenue from the RFL . Читать дальше...
Hello, everyone.
Hope this post is allowed.
Thinking of heading over to catalan for the first game of the season with my nephew.
Anyone any advice on best places to fly to or best place to base, thinking of heading over on Thursday and coming back Sunday. Where will most of the fans stay, fly to?
Thanks

Well the Farrell story seems dead in the water,indeed if it was ever realistically alive of course,he's bigging up him playing in the next world cup at 36 he was speaking the launch of some cup or other,funnily enough if anyone can still be fit for union at 36 it's him.

Dragons V Rhinos - I've only ever travelled on the team 'plane package for this game before, this year have decided to combine the game with a couple of days in Perpignan, will tickets be available through the Rhinos for the match or will I have to go through the Dragons?
Cheers
