Dear
@jeremycorbyn
. I pay for my broadband. I consider it a luxury. But I can’t get an appointment with a nurse or doctor to discuss my diabetes blood test results. How’s about you fix important things first ffs. Why do you politicians not understand what ordinary people want?
Game ended half an hour ago, but Nathan Cleary is still here posing for selfies and signing autographs. What a player and what a bloke. Credit to
@PenrithPanthers
and
@NRL
Credit to both
@leedsrhinos
and
@WarringtonRLFC
for putting on a fantastic game. Well done Wire on your win.
Hopefully you enjoyed the
@SuperLeague
coverage
@Channel4
@C4Sport
. It was a pleasure to be involved. Make no mistake, today has been a landmark day for Rugby League.
Thank you for all your messages regarding the
@C4Sport
@SuperLeague
announcement. Thrilled to be involved. Amazing opportunity for the sport of Rugby League and a privilege to be a small part of it. Roll on Saturday!
Search for the hero booms around Old Trafford as Kevin Sinfield and his team stroll on to the pitch. We have our hero, what a guy. Another million raised for
@mndassoc
and
@Rob7Burrow
. “If we can all try and be a better friend the world will be a better place.”
A great man has died today waiting for the government to hand over £50m it promised him and other MND sufferers months ago. Meanwhile a politician who spunked away billions of government money on dodgy contracts for his chums is laughing and joking on national tv. FFS.
Thank you for all your messages today regarding my new role
@SkySportsRL
.
They are all massively appreciated. I am honoured to be joining a great team and can’t wait to get started.
It promises to be another fantastic
@SuperLeague
season. Roll on Round 1!
Said it before and will say it again, if Australia and NRL have no inclination to play international matches (barring World Cup) it’s time to move on without them. They are holding the game back.
Spine tingling moment, a genuine highlight of
@RLWC2021
without doubt. Kevin Sinfield is a great man. No accolade seems high enough. The roar as he finished his speech was spine tingling and deafening. He transcends sport now. He is a leader this country can learn so much from.
Wise words from the bravest of the brave. Little in stature, gargantuan in spirit. We’d all do well to listen to his advice. God bless Rob, his family and friends.
I think yesterday will have given
@TheRFL
a lot to think about re the
@TheChallengeCup
final.
@SpursOfficial
was a great venue and now people have been it will grow in popularity. I think Wembley in RL terms may have served it’s purpose. Time to move on IMO.
Anyone else think that
@nrl
is becoming a touch boring? Too many blow out scores, including Origin, the really outstanding games are getting fewer and fewer. Ladder becoming predictable. No doubting the talent. So what’s going wrong?
I think Wheelchair Rugby League
@RLWC2021
has broken Twitter! 100% unanimous feedback. The sport is amazing! Everyone loves it and rightly so. It’s fast, skilful, full of big hits and collisions. All the reasons many people fell in love with RL in the first place. Tremendous!
So Thomas Christiansen gets sacked because a team full of players he hasn’t signed have underperformed or just aren’t good enough. Meanwhile the man who signed said players remains at the club. Modern day football there for you
#lufc
I think it used to wind a few up when
#leedsrhinos
fans tongue in cheek referred to him as “Sir Kev.” I don’t think there is a RL fan (or sports fan) anywhere who would begrudge him that title now. Absolutely mind blowing effort. For his mate Rob, but also for every MND sufferer.
Lucky enough to be in the room where
@England_RL
wheelchair
@RLWC2021
winners are celebrating with family and friends. I don’t think it’s sunk in for them yet. What a great bunch of people to they are. Can’t help but be pleased for them and their families. Such a special moment!
One request tomorrow for
@England_RL
fans. Get behind the team tomorrow. Win or lose. Shaun Wane was the right man for the job when appointed. I wish him every success. Go get them England!
What horrible news. Such a wonderful human being who showed courage and bravery beyond belief. My thoughts are with his family and friends. God bless Rob. Rest in peace.
I’m sorry but Wayne Bennett hasn’t “got” the England / GB job from day one. On or off pitch. His tactics are boring to watch (which is almost acceptable if you win everything) and he doesn’t allow our flair players to play. Also his selection for the GB tour has been a disgrace.
Congratulations to
@Saints1890
on another outstanding performance. Tough day for
@hullfcofficial
.
Thanks to everyone who joined us on
@Channel4
@C4Sport
over the last two weeks. It’s a privilege to work with a such great team.
Plenty more to come on
#C4League
There is a lady sat near me at DW Stadium. All she has done is scream at the ref. Not a word of encouragement for her team, just screaming at the ref. Why would you pay good money to do that?
Many thanks to everyone for all your kind messages regarding my appearance on
@SkySportsRL
today. They are greatly appreciated. Thanks to all the crew, and Baz & Tez for making me feel so welcome, it was a great experience. See you again on Friday!
Lovely night out with the
@ViaplaySportsUK
team. What a two years it has been. Hope you have enjoyed it as much as we have! Hopefully see you all again soon!

Low and behold Australian players coming out and saying they would have played
@RLWC2021
. Cut all the politics, this is all about
@nrl
greed and desire to control the game. I’ve said it for the last few years, if the Kangaroos don’t want to play let’s go without them.
I have genuinely never heard a noise like that at Elland Road today when the winner went in. What a game and Why we all love sport. It ain’t over til it’s over as

right on the final whistle again!
The tears will flow reading this. God bless Rob and his family. Inspirational doesn’t cover it.
“I’m not afraid of dying. I only hope that there are ghosts so I can watch my family grow up and still protect them.”
I’m not sure there is a Rugby League fan alive who doesn’t want to see more international games being played. We all see the value of it. It has to happen. Too many times it’s been discussed and nothing happens. The lifeblood of the game is internationals. MAKE IT HAPPEN!
When you look at the players who have put their hand up for the so called “smaller” nations at
@RLWC2021
. They could have easily had the winter off, but no, they wanted to represent their country, their family, their heritage. It’s for moments like
@JAMRugbyLeague
or
@GreekRL
Disappointing to hear that Michael Carter has come off twitter. It follows the backlash after
@WTrinityRL
decision to stand together as a team against racism. Michael is one of the good guys in RL. Interesting no criticism (or support) from governing body.
The biggest worry / disappointment about this awful situation, isn’t actually the threat to life, or the loss of income. It’s the behaviour of the morons who are helping to break society down. They should be ashamed of themselves.
People criticise
#rugbyleague
too much. This is one of the greatest things my sport has ever done. ALL INCLUSIVE. Anyone and everyone welcome to play. Superb. Absolutely superb. Well done to all. LDRL, PDRL, Women’s Super League, the sport is growing by the day. Love it!
Absolutely brilliant opening night to the Wheelchair
@RLWC2021
. Whilst
@EnglandWhRL
may feel they could have been better, credit to
@Kangaroos
who fought for everything. Wonderful advert for the game and always a privilege to be here watching it with
@kylejamor87
. What a sport!
Well done
@Morrisons
today. Went to do the weekly shop. Queuing to get in (someone monitoring social distancing). Shelves well stocked, reminders on tannoy to keep your distance etc. Long but orderly queue for tills but 2 metre lines marked out. Everyone adhered to the rules.✅
An emotional night for everyone
@SkySportsRL
as we remember our much loved colleague and friend Bill Arthur.
A lovely tribute will be paid to Bill before our live game tonight.
My thoughts are with his family and friends. God bless.
That was quite simply outstanding from
@lufc
today. No ifs, no buts. A Premier League performance in all but name. The movement, the speed the quality. Delighted for Bamford, great finish that capped off a superb individual effort. As for Hernandez..... 🔥🔥🔥
#lufc
Before everyone starts piling in on Jackson Hastings because he’s made it known he wants to play in
@nrl
. Just think. For 2.5 years in
@SuperLeague
he’s been outstanding. Man of Steel. 2 x Grand Finals. Great ambassador for comp. He will have his own reasons. Respect them.

Professionally, the last 12 months have been amazing. Had some amazing opportunities for which I am eternally grateful. However the last few days have made me realise without your health, you have nothing, so I wish you all health and happiness. God bless and good luck.
Interesting to see & hear comments re Bailey Peacock-Farrell. In goalkeeping terms & appearances he’s still a baby. He’ll make mistakes. Look at Premier League. De Gea, Alison and Lloris have all been hammered at times this year too. He is learning on the job, be patient.
#lufc
The only thing that came home last night was the harsh reality that England has a huge problem with racism, on line abuse and a hooligan element who thinks it’s ok to smash up the capital city. The football really is irrelevant.
Have to say as a huge fan of the Magic Weekend, the decision to hold it at Elland Road surely signals the end of a great event. Nothing around the ground, too far out of the city to nip out for a beer or food. Also being in heartlands reduces the numbers going for the weekend.
So Robert Elstone to stand down from his position....... No surprise there. You’d have to say his tenure has been a disaster. A lot of money spent for zero return.
So in football, player feigns injury and all hell breaks loose because ball not kicked out of play..... In
#RugbyLeague
, player dislocates knee, drops ball whilst he slaps kneecap back in place and he gets penalised for dropping ball!
Thought Ben Thaler had a great game last night. Could easily have blown a few penalties at the play of the ball and didn’t. Told players to get on with it and stop messing about. He set a standard last night let’s hope the players follow his lead.
A really strange feeling outside Elland Road tonight.
#lfc
fans displaying their banner,
#lufc
fans in total support. There is utter disbelief here....
For so long
@hullkrofficial
have been the noisy neighbours. Now they are the Lord of the Manor. Two clubs going in different directions. Well done to Rovers. Whisper it quietly but relegation refocused them as a club. They stood strong and bounced back superbly. Congratulations!
Over 10k down The Jungle today for

@hullfcofficial
. Fantastic turn out and a great travelling support too. As someone who believes TV games should be stand alone fixtures, there is definitely an appetite for Sunday afternoon RL in
@SuperLeague
.
So Segeyaro upset he hasn’t got a club.... He had a club that loved him in
@SuperLeague
. He walked out on that contract and is now paying the price. This isn’t a hard luck story at all..... Be careful what you wish for James.....
#leedsrhinos
I’ll be really disappointed if there are no
@SuperLeague
fixtures rearranged for next weekend. At some point clubs are going to be playing 3 games a week, yet 6 clubs who could play next week have no game. Feels like a missed opportunity. Both media wise and player welfare wise.
Just want to say a huge well done to
@SkySportsRL
today. Thought Bill, Brian and Barrie were outstanding today on an incredibly tough day. I’m not sure how they did it. Also well done to all the gang for making it possible.
#OneRobBurrow
#jjb
A moment of clear thinking and clarity from a young man in the heat of the battle. There is a middle ground to be found. Calm heads and clear minds will help find it.
What a night. Thank you to
@leedsrhinos

@SkySportsRL
for a wonderful tribute to a wonderful human being who has changed the world for the better. I can only hope one day to have a fraction of the strength that the Burrow family have. God bless

Over but never out
Really enjoyed today on

with

As
#RugbyLeague
fans we often complain we don’t get enough coverage as a sport.
Today and every Wednesday at 4pm on
@talkSPORT2
there is a full TWO HOUR SHOW
@RLontS
DEDICATED RL SHOW.
Can I ask all fans to RT this to spread the word? Cheers.
Listen here:
In fairness you are probably not quite as frustrated as the people at Widnes who either aren’t getting paid, or aren’t sure if their club is even going to exist come Sunday....... Really poor tweet.
😠 Featherstone Rovers are frustrated at the lack of communication regarding this weekend's match against
@WidnesRL
.
The club would like to assure supporters that they will be updated when there is any confirmation and the team is well prepared for the match.
#TogetherAsOne
Cannot wait for
@RLWC2021
to kick off on Saturday. A privilege as ever to be involved with the coverage, but the real excitement is that for the first time in a long time we are getting the chance to see world class international RL. We don’t see enough of it. Bring it on!
If you take joy in someone being critically ill in hospital, then quite frankly you are a complete #@#@! Seriously, how sad must your life actually be......
Everytime I see Kevin Sinfield complete these unbelievable achievements, it makes me realise just why
@leedsrhinos
were so successful. His determination not to give in and his mindset are absolutely incredible. I’ve said it before, he’s the person we should all aspire to be.
Well done to all involved. The clubs, players, staff, volunteers, supporters, broadcasters. Anyone and everyone involved with today at Headingley should be totally proud. It was heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. Never take your health for granted. Ever
A lot of the talk about
@LondonBroncosRL
is about players leaving etc. This squad are tipping their guts in for the London shirt and each other. A band of brothers who are determined to provide another
#rugbyleague
miracle. Fair play. They represent everything sport is about.
I always wonder why owners put themselves through the stresses of owning a sports club. I guess it’s for days like today. Well done to
@BatleyRLFC
and Kevin Nicholas. Great performance. 👏👏👏
I am sorry but this is an absolute disgrace. Instead of the RFL looking for solutions to potential “issues”, they try and eliminate the perceived problem. I’ve said it before and I will say it again, the RFL is not fit for purpose under its current guise.
Toronto haven't entered the Challenge Cup because they were asked to pay a significant sum to the RFL on the basis they reached the Final. This year's attendance saw the RFL lose a big sum of money and they had to cover their backs in case a non-UK side reached the final.
