Awful news about Rob Burrow. What can you possibly say about this Colossus of a man that hasn't been said before?. He had it all as a player and he had it all as a father, son and dad. Thoughts with Rob's family. He is a huge loss to the entire sport of Rugby League.

I'm hearing that Warrington Wolves are planning to breakaway from Superleague to form a SuperSuperleague of one. They are currently second favourites to win that comp with the bookies.

A pretty horrible time for the sport today, so Mav is going to give Twitter a miss for 24 hours. I don't think it's the right time for my type of journalism. More a time for quiet reflection. See you Tuesday #Maverettes. #RestInPeaceRob

@Rydog186 @andy_arjwelch @GaryLineker Lucky he wasn't eating a coconut. Could have taken the lads head off. I usually take a mango, pineapple and pomegranate to most games and make myself a smoothie at half time. This guy's probably just health conscious, not racist.

I think the crowds at Barrow & Whitehaven prove that Superleague clubs should come into the comp earlier: better crowds at both those ties than at Wire today. Getting these SL teams in earlier can help Champ Clubs out with some cash & help builds momentum for the comp as a whole.

Rugby League was so much better when you could pick people up and drive them head first into the rock hard ground potentially crippling them for life. This version we've got now where you can't do that is just bloody soft and on its aaaaaaaaaaarse.

Absolutely priceless this 🤣🤣. He's running all the pre season conditioning via Zoom. Essentially a Peleton subscription with a Northern Accent . OUTSTANDING stuff 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Jon Clarke likely to do a lot of his Hull FC work remotely from Australia in 2025. Will visit occasionally but Clarke's primary focus very much Manly Sea Eagles, where he remains their head of performance.

Truly, anyone saying Griffin shouldn't be sent off is wrong. Without referees we have no game. Unclear what he's said or what he's moaning about but abuse of officials is unacceptable and that's from all players including Saints. Fair play to Kendall for not putting up with it.
