Carolina Lightning

Carolina's premier rugby league club

@the_real_flea @JonC4D1 @man_with_a_mic @SteveMascord @antwigan If the mind is right so will be the body. RL has stalled because we have lots the plot. When we can define what American RL is and stands we can secure a future. We lack our own identity and language and have been lead into tribalism by absentee leadership

[Carolina Lightning @LightninRL]

@JonC4D1 @man_with_a_mic @the_real_flea @SteveMascord @antwigan If we cannot step into the light together we will die in the darkness. It’s starts with each of us challenging each other to commit to the process of improvement, not for our sake but for the sake of those generations who will love the game when we are gone

@JonC4D1 @man_with_a_mic @the_real_flea @SteveMascord @antwigan When the student is ready, the lesson will appear. Many see any attempt at something new as a threat to what they have built. RL is no different. We can only reach the top of the mountain when we stop chasing each other with pitchforks at the foot.

So, #nfl #football fans you say you like to see action? Let's look at ACTUAL time in play:

NFL Avg. Length: 192 minutes
Time in Play: 11 minutes

RL Avg. Length: 85 minutes
Time in play: 55 minutes

Ask yourself, are you REALLY watching a lot of action? #NOWWHAT #RUGBYLEAGUE

[New York Rugby League @ny_rugbyleague]

Ok @NFL #football fans. So you say you like defense and good tackles? COOL, did you know the @nyjets average 61 tackles a game? Did you also know the @NZWarriors of the @NRL average 324 tackles...A GAME?!! If you love tackling then #rugbyleague is what you should love next!

[New York Rugby League @ny_rugbyleague]

Friday Facts for our football friends. We got the need, the need for SPEED!

@JayT23 = top speed of 22.13 mph in an @NFL game last year!

@JoshAddocarr = top speed of 23.68 mph in an @NRL game!

WOOO that's FAST! Football fans if you like speed #Rugbyleague is #WhatsNext #NYRL

[New York Rugby League @ny_rugbyleague]

The No Fun League is cutting down on big hits, while #NYRL is turning them up! In professional rugby league, there's a big hit every 2 minutes. Imagine every time you brush your teeth, someone gets smashed. So if you like BIG hits, #rugbyleague is #whatsnext! #ForTheEmpire #NARL

[New York Rugby League @ny_rugbyleague]

After expressing his unhappiness with the @BrooklynNets organization, @JHarden13 is looking to be traded. Right before the end of the @NBA trade deadline, NYRL has decided to pursue the new converted second rower for the 2022 @NARugbyLeague season. #FortheEmpire #DontRetireYet
