A well deserved and overdue knighthood for Kevin Sinfield.

A great player and immense in his fundraising.

Only the second Rugby League player to be knighted.

Three bonus points this week for Halfback Ragnarsson, Mr H and Quincy1. These three were also this biggest risers for the week.

I know Dewsbury have had some good wins of late but I am hoping for a convincing Widnes win in good conditions today. We do have to start to enlarge our agg score and I’m hoping this is one of those games we can do it in. SOooooooooo I’m going for a large 54-6 scoreline (bound to be embarrassed by that prediction)with mom JJ and att 2400

Game time

Posted this thought in the Wembley thread. Since then, I've watched Leeds on Thursday, Warrington on Friday.

All 3 games took 2 hours to complete, at least. That's 120 minutes for an 80 minute game. So, including HT, a third of what you're watching is dead air time.

When I used to watch Widnes donkey's years ago, a 3:00 game would be finished at 4:30. Now, they're still going at 5:00.

RL is entering RU and American Football territory. Won't be long before there are adverts on during a Captain's Challenge. Which, by the way, is the worst thing to happen to the game in a long time. Another useless rule change to ruin the flow of the game.
