@M_Shaw1 Can’t make an overlap with an extra man 🙈 be better off just turning it back inside all day and trying to tire middles out and hope for something to happen than trying to beat them on the edges

England void of ideas with the ball. Predictable and unimaginative. Have once again done a lot right, but execution in good ball is nowhere near close to being good enough to trouble the Kangaroos.

What happens when you drink 10 oz of Magnesium Citrate? I’m glad you asked. Buckle up. 12:05 p.m. — It begins. You down the 10-ounce bottle like it’s a lukewarm PBR at a college tailgate. The label says “cherry flavored,” but it tastes like someone described cherry to a chemist who’s never eaten fruit. Regret sets in instantly. 12:06 p.m. — You grab a handful of chips for moral support. They’ll be liquified before they clear your throat, but who cares? Life still feels okay right now. Remember this peace. You’re about to enter the darkest chapter of your gastrointestinal history. 12:37 p.m. — The rumbling starts. There’s movement in the depths. You’ve got five pounds of impacted regret in your colon, and you just drank the “human-safe” version of Drano. You think it’s go time. It’s not. You get one sad little snake turd — a warm-up act. That’s the last semi-solid you’ll see for the next 24 hours. 12:57 p.m. — The situation escalates. Your stomach is in full revolt. You have 0.3 seconds to make it to the toilet. Running is risky business — one wrong step and you’ll paint the walls. You pray for sphincter strength like never before as you waddle at Mach 3, pants half down, whispering, “Please, God, not like this.” 12:58 p.m. — Impact. You sit, and the gates of hell open. The explosion is biblical. It hits the back of the bowl with such violent force it ricochets like a sprinkler system. You ask yourself, Is that blood? No — false alarm. Just the ghost of a cherry pie you ate in 2004. The smell is unspeakable. The acoustics? Terrifying. The neighbors think you’re performing an exorcism. 1:06 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. — Time becomes meaningless. You’ve evacuated everything you’ve ever eaten, plus a few ancestral meals for good measure. Your colon feels like it’s been sandblasted with lava. The burn is real. You’re sweating. Crying. Contemplating life. You meet Jesus briefly, but He sends you back — says your mission’s not over yet. 8:37 p.m. — You’re empty. Broken. Reborn. Your butthole? A war veteran. Your spirit? In recovery. You’ll never be the same, but you will survive. Tomorrow, you’ll rise from the ashes, slip into your last clean pair of underwear, and waddle into Walmart like a survivor of gastrointestinal warfare — to buy a new toilet brush and reclaim your dignity. You’ve earned it. Feeling thankful. 💩🙏

@mikelavelle93 Tom Brisoce? Can’t remember if he won it with Hull.

Probably one of the hardest hitting players I’ve seen, was gutted when he left Wigan. I’m trying to think of other players who have won the Challenge Cup with three different clubs, there can’t be many.

@Todd_Spence @markcavill

@sam_huskins On about Cas 😂

@bendy84 Behave

George Flanagan class

@sam_huskins *not got

@sam_huskins Or for the attack either 😂

@TheGameCaller Is the player pool available for all super league clubs to spend the full salary cap? Paying poor players more money won’t make them better players 🤷‍♂️

The salary cap in Rugby League is simply not suitable for its intended purpose under IMG. I attended a presentation by Matt Dwyer, the VP of Sports Management at IMG. During his talk, he mentioned that IMG would require clubs to spend up to the full salary cap. If they did not, those clubs would be replaced by others that could and would meet the requirement. Yes, it is supposed to help ensure a more level playing field, making the competition more exciting for fans and sustainable for clubs. But when you have five of the current Super League clubs not meeting that salary cap requirement you have numerous blowout, damaging scores like the mess of a game at Castleford tonight.

@COYFCast Surprised at the negativity. Was one of the few players last season that I looked out for during matches & enjoyed watching. Does a lot of the dirty work and 1%er’s - the type of player appreciated by team mates. Reminds me a bit of Morgan Smithies. Nothing flash but work horse.

Very harsh, in my opinion… What are everyone’s thoughts on George Hill?

@TheGameCaller Slightly worried that he’s reporting this, as will probably turn out not to be true now 🙈🙈

Good move by Castleford Tigers appointing Chris Chester as their director of Rugby League operations. He has strong values as well as sound Rugby League principles and strengths, all reasons why players and staff respect and respond to him. Also why Leigh are sad to see him leave. He inherits a mess of a club drifting closer towards the Championship than the Super League playoffs. You'd back Chris to succeed in this role but they'll be further short term pain to start with.

@petter_andre Only 11….

5 BIG matches to go for #lufc Leeds and Burnley can get max 100 points. SheffU max 98. If sheffU get max 98, Burnley can only get 97, if Burnley get max 100 SheffU get 95. If they draw Burnley max 98 and SheffU max get 96. Leeds therefore only need 11 more points from last 5.

@GaryCarter_1979 With Big Nige back in charge you can guarantee Bradford will be one of the teams. I’m not necessarily against that IF they are more financially viable than 2 other teams in the championship. Not sure there’s any team particularly flush with money in there.

A lot of talk about a 14-team Super League this evening. I'm told nothing at all is on the table, yet. And on the IMG grading scheme. Toulouse were 13, London 14.

@GavWilson And that was just the rugby….

Looks absolutely grim at Cas this afternoon

@COYFCast Start of sets are so, so bad. First 3 carries are always ineffective meaning most of time 4th tackle is around 20-30m line. No ruck speed for our hooker/halve to play off but worryingly a couple of times today, there was no play set on 3rd, 4th tackle when we were in good ball 🙈

I’ve seen some bad games of Rugby League… This has been a sorry spectacle. We’ve been shite. Catalans have just old-manned us big time. Zero composure in this team at the minute, and seem to be lacking leadership.

@hullkrofficial A few spoiling it for the many unfortunately. Was at headingley a couple of seasons ago with a junior team who were playing at 1/2 time. KR fan going crackers, throwing his bottle onto the field at Leeds players in front of all kids. Shame

Hull KR have received final confirmation of the club's allocation for the upcoming Betfred Challenge Cup Quarter-Final tie against Hull FC at MKM Stadium. A decision has been made not to extend the club’s allocation beyond our usual 3,708 tickets (15%). Read more 👉 tinyurl.com/yv86meva #UpTheRobins🔴⚪️

@johnnyddavidson What did you say to Agar to get walled up?

@Forty20LIVE Referee saw it all unfolding and waited 3 tackles to stop game

Member of the Leeds medical staff getting closer to stopping Oledzki than many actual players. #SLLeeWak

Nice work @SkySports Worth every penny of the subscription
