Refer page 1 of the RFU playbook (still) headed "FREEBIES".

Then refer page 4 "CAR PARK HAMPERS".

Not as good as section 5 of the RFU playbook:

"DARK ARTS. Foul play is not cheating if it is described as 'part of the dark arts'. This is only valid if followed by a smug grin and a chortle".

"See Section 8: BENDING RULES USING JOKE SHOP SUPPLIES".

Understand something, troll. It is called the Super League War.

No-one claims rugby league hasn't neglected international rugby league since the Super League War.

Even the disastrous RLWC 2000 drew more than 40,000 for a neutral final in the UK; at a time when the international game was at its nadir.

You haven't got a clue.

Yep, and some of John Inverdale's hair dye.

Just above section 14: "Pretending that RU in Australia is a growing code and in no way threatened by AFL and RL".
