@SteveMascord I think so, for one he would have a much better portfolio of commercial success to present to sponsors/tv over here from the past few years. Compare that to the people running the game at the moment who have well…. Zilch.

@MartinSLewis @ofgem I’m with ovo energy and fixed on a new deal in May however my DD has gone up because they are now saying I need to have 1 months credit by the end of March. So my actual DD is approx £20 more each month than it should be. Why are they allowed to increase this? Usage not changed.

Exhibit A - 6 years ago... I would normally say not much has changed... but instead things are getting worse! #RugbyLeague

"Realistically, I think the way the sport is being run at the minute is a shambles."

Wigan's Tom Davies hits out at the governance of British rugby league - warning the game is losing 'half of its talent' without a proper reserve system in operation.

@AvantiWestCoast my wigan to London Euston train at 5:46 was cancelled but I have a split ticket which stops at Lichfield. Now my train has been cancelled can I get on the next train to Euston from wigan which doesn’t stop at Lichfield?

Here all night (or day) for all the Aussie ref moaning of the #WCC … pure magic 🍿🍿🍿

[Michael Lavelle @mikelavelle93]

Seeing lots of complaints about refereeing decisions going against Penrith. For far too long the Aussies have always had decisions go their way, the Ryan Hall try in 2014 for example, so it’s nice something has gone our way for a change.

Bias refereeing….how does the ref award try with the angle and look from the last Wigan try and in similar circumstances award no try on Taylans effort 🤨

[NRL PHYSIO @nrlphysio]

I’m all for cracking down on poor tackle tech & following framework when it comes to punishing high tackles, but “no mitigation” is laughable here. He was lower at a good tackle height but got swung around. Decisions like this will lose players and fans

[Specsavers @Specsavers]

@SkySportsRL Do we need to sponsor rugby league again?

[Jackson Hastings @JackoHastings]

The games honestly dying if that’s a red card. Feel for the players in Super League at the moment it’s becoming embarrassing some of these cards.

Players union is 100% necessary and asap.

[Ben Fairhurst @BenFairhurst1]

@SteveMascord @NRL @IntRL @RLSamoa Exactly what I’ve just said 😂 I won’t hold my breath though!
