With less than 2 weeks until the Super League 2014 Season, I thought we’d have a look at the 3 clubs that will surprise us the most in the 2014 season. Obviously you have the teams that will always be fighting for the top spot in the Super League table, but I think there could…
England have been hit by scandal just days out from their World Cup kickoff with forward Gareth Hock booted out of the team for “disciplinary reasons”. Brett Ferres has been brought into the squad as his replacement. Speculation is running wild about what has caused Hock to be kicked out of the England camp. I…
The 2013 season has been nothing short of a disaster for the Parramatta Eels. On the field, off the field, it doesn’t matter. There is not one single positive thing to come out of the entire season for the Eels. The low light of this season came when Ricky Stuart called his squad into a…
Over the last few months I have had a number of people asking who I would select in my England side for the World Cup. Today I have decided to post the side I would take into the opening World Cup match against Australia. I have no doubt that some people will not be happy…

After waiting a while, Folau chose to sign with the Australian Rugby Union. Israel Folau has quit the AFL and will return to Rugby League. Brent Read of The Australian…
The 2012 Super League Dream Team has been announced and its hard not to look at the side and feel that it is a reflection of the plumeting standards of Super League and Rugby League in Great Britain in general. Let’s face it, this lineup wouldn’t be competitive at all in the National Rugby League….
English second rower Gareth Hock has been serving a two year drug suspension for cocaine use. Yesterday, Wigan announced that coming out of that two year suspension, they had signed Hock to a five year contract. What a disgraceful, embarrassing day, not only for Wigan Rugby League club, but for Rugby League in Great Britain…
Ditch digger or professional footballer? Hmmm, I know which one I would choose. With that in mind I can’t think of too many reasons for putting my choice in jeopardy, especially when one of those reasons is because I’m so fucking boring that a need to snort junk to have a good time. Thats just…
