Fitness levels have played a big part as well. How many games have we seen where the first half was tight then we have blown the opposition away the second half?

No different to SL where some teams seem fitter and more skillful than others

I've just read on serious about rugby league that David Hughes owner of London Broncos is pulling out of the club. It doesn't look good for them. It finally might put end to the London experiment .

Possibly. Or it might be an opening for someone/a syndicate to come in and take them to the next level. Hughes deserves massive credit for bankrolling them with inflated travel, accommodation, and ground rental costs, but I don’t think he has the kind of money they need to be competitive in SL these days. We know better than anyone that sometimes good things can come of big change.

A slightly less favourable scenario is that a group cobble together enough cash to keep them running as a semi-pro club. Genuinely thousands of people in London love RL, and if the club’s existence is in threat I’d be confident something would happen.

Yes, an element of nervousness creeping in for me at the moment seeing results of this type, especially from
Toulouse..

We are very motivated to beat Toulouse if we both make the Grand Final.

I think we'll really put them to the sword.
