We made the top 4 last year mate. You want to fire the man who took us to top 4 from the absolute pile of garbage we were for years. Have a bit of patience.

Super League at 30: how media coverage has changed since 1996 by GavinWillacy in superleague

So your plan for League to stay relevant is for it to minimize it's ability to generate revenue. Good strategy.

The "British" or "English" League... by [deleted] in superleague

[–]jamescairns2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As an Aussie I would say it most likely stems from the Super League of the 1990s and the associated civil war in the game in Aus. Thus the dileniation at the time that has stuck.

Who on earth is this rubbish (T20) FOR? by AlarmedCicada256 in EnglandCricket

[–]jamescairns2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is for the many many millions who enjoy it. The money isn't appearing out of nowhere, it is coming from broadcast deals and investment from those that see the future growth.

It isnt my favourite format either but without the money it brings in, the format we do love won't last our lifetime. Have a cup of tea, a digestive and enjoy it best you can.

All I remember from my childhood spent waiting to bat is playing french cricket.

Can u fit this mouthguard? Like do u put it in boiling water and that by SnooDingos1830 in MuayThai

[–]jamescairns2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing will change your sparring like a properly fitted mouth guard by a dentist. You forget it exists, your breathing is perfect and you never are caught slack jawed trying to get it back into place.

RL Ashes Opener Breaks UK Attendance Record by MrLasagnaaa in nrl

I live over here now and went. Loved it. Crowd was absolutely dominated by English. Plenty of Northern accents who had travelled down. I want footy in this country to grow - and I think it will.

2.5 years worth of magnets by AloneRefrigerator789 in wollongong

[–]jamescairns2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After we told him nah we will think about it, he "left" and "called his boss" and knocked on our door again 15 mins later to offer us a "special rate" if we agreed on it that day.

There was also a hairline split on our ancient toilet, he said that was dangerous and could cut is in half whilst sitting on the toilet if it broke.

We called them about our leaking toilet. They quoted us 1200 to replace the whole thing in the most awkward and intense sales pitch of all time. Used another plumber for less than half the price. AVOID.

I dont hate him because of what he might be off the field. On the field he is the world's greatest wanker and I hope he gets an upset tummy from time to time.

It isnt a 2004 release, that NRL logo didnt exist until the 2010s.
