@SouthStandLuke @loinersview With you on this. More money is desperately needed, but until we know what it's going to be spent on, what the NRL want in return, and what the plan is for Super League going forward then I find it difficult to have much of an opinion either way.

@loinersview It is somewhat worrying that we still don't know what the NRL's plan is for Super League. In principle, I'm in favour. They can't do any worse than the idiots in charge now, right? But if they want to go back to winter rugby, or start merging clubs into new franchises, then no.

Would you be in favour of NRL taking over our game?

Hasn't Matt Ellis got Ray Von's number?

@maverickrhino Pressed the wrong off switch

Ok, can we turn off the screeching referees audio? Jesus wept. #CCWakLee #bbcrl #challengecup #rugbyleague

@loinersview Big fan of the guy desperately trying to hold onto his chips while mobbing him. Mind you, he's still got some way to go to catch McGuire, Charnley and Hall😏

@RobConlon25 Love how they were threatened with $5k fines if they entered the pitch 🤣

The scenes 😳😳😳😳😳😳

This is a must-read article by @RobConlon25 on the great Joe Thompson of @leedsrhinos and @WalesRugbyL - realclass.co.uk/unearthing-the… - I was lucky enough to see the collection a few years ago and everything Rob says is true.

In 1932, Joe Thompson boarded a ship from Southampton for his third Ashes tour of Australia carrying a leather Victor suitcase. Almost a hundred years later, I had a rummage through the same suitcase to see what he brought back. realclass.co.uk/unearthing-the…

The Square Ball: Season 36, Issue 06 25 years have passed since #LUFC swaggered their way to a #UCL semi-final, so we wrote about it: - Eirik Bakke interview - @j4brennan speaks to Gaizka Mendieta Plus asking for divine intervention, conquering Rome, best XI faced and more!

No butter no mood🙁

Even when we score something goes wrong.

Ep.5 MF DOOM: Long Island to Leeds on BBC Sounds featuring ⁦@Nath_Brudenell⁩ ⁦@TheSquareBall⁩ ⁦@RobConlon25⁩ bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/m…

You can read the original story from four years ago here. What started off as a daft pub conversation turned into one hell of a rabbit hole trying to work out whether MF DOOM lived in Leeds or not. thesquareball.net/leeds-united/o…

I make a little appearance in the final episode of this new podcast series on MF DOOM and how he ended up living in Leeds. The soundtrack is by Matt Helders, so I'm counting it as fulfilling my childhood dream of collaborating with Arctic Monkeys. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

@loinersview Absolutely loved him. Looked like he was made of silk with ball in hand then whacked like a bastard in defence
