Whip is going to win the Rugby World Cup ? I love watching the All Blacks and am a big fan of Super Rugby, bit I can’t see Foster’s team coming out on top somehow. I’d go for France. You wouldn’t really bet against them against anyone in their own back yard. Or would you ?
Arfs..😁
It would appear that the powers of concentration for RL players is much higher than Yawnion because the average ball-in-play time in Super League matches 63 minutes and 20 seconds which equates to 75% of the game time.
Yawnion manages roughly 38 minutes when the ball is actually in play, less than half of the game time.
Numerous world class League players convert to Union, very few, if any, go the other way. If League is the better game this seems quite perverse, but presumably there is a logical explanation for this exodus, although I don't know what it is.
Come on sinkov, the reason is the same as for every other aspect of life ------MONEY!! Yawnion is the rich man's domain whereas League has to fight for every penny it can get.
You can also add to that by referring to my previous post about the time the ball is in play ------Yawnion is much easier and has a far better hourly rate of pay, you get far more rests, don't have to jump at lineouts because somebody lifts you up, you can lie around with lots of other players when there is a ruck or scrummage ---blimey, there are so many reasons why League players change code, however, money is the main reason.

This seems contradictory to me Sub, surely the money would flow to the better game ?
Ah, you mean like it does in football. Non-league football is a far superior game to what is played in the Premier League, it allows tackles, doesn't have players falling around like they have been hit by a sniper etc., etc., however, the money flows to the far worse game at the expense of the many clubs struggling to exist.
In two matches this season, one in the FA Cup and the other the first league game, there have been 12 goals scored at Ashington ---value for my £50 season ticket, n'est ce pas?
Best league in the world is the PL Sub, that's where the best players are, that's where the money is. By the same logic, the best game is Union, that's where the money is.
Good late comeback by your lads Sub, we've played Brighouse a few times, never much in it, we've usually been on a par with them.
