As does Dan Sarginson, apparently.

To be fair, it was Gower, Witt and Dixon that did the damage against us, all three weren't in today's Broncos team.

| That was a total waste of time for me going so one sided it was ridiculous, who can ever enjoy a team getting drummed is beyond me, wouldn't enjoy it if the team winning was my own.

When the team doing the 'drumming' is yours you can put up with it a bit better but it still palls pretty quickly..

| Bulls fans should be thankful for the Broncos - as we have now lost the unwelcome record of being on the wrong end of the biggest semi-final hiding - our 1992 71-10 beating from Wigan.
Stil remember being furious when they allowed an Offiah try when they were already 50 points up - even though he had clearly run about 10 meters while over the touch line

| For some reason though, they seem to be concentrating on the winners points total and not the difference, so apparently we're still regarded as the biggest loser in a cup semi.
It's all the more galling that a short while later in the same season as we were tonked 71-10, Wigan put 80 odd past Leeds in the play-offs, but it rarely gets a mention, it's [ialways[/i our 71-10...

| To be pedantic they beat Leeds 74-6 in the Premiership in 1992 and Offiah got 10 tries in that game. It made up for our humiliation at Bolton.
One thing that occurred to me was that it took that 71 point defeat to really show that things needed to change at Northern. So it is the case at London, they need investment at all levels and a new coach if they are to stay in SL. If they don't get that then stuffings like yesterday will only harm them further.

| I always find it strange that when you see a hammering like that yesterday all anyone focuses on is how poor London are. No one ever seems to mention just how good Wigan were....
You do worry what this will do for London though, I think the last ship may have sailed yesterday on London RL, it would be great to have a competitive team in London but its not looking likely.

It is not easy to see how London will avoid finishing in the bottom 2 next year - which will give the rfl/SL a big problem: do they abandon the London experiment? To my mind it says a lot about the game that it cannot sustain a top level club in London.

| Anyway back to Luke George. Good attacker and can tackle OK
His major weakness is his judgement on coming out of the line on whether to stick to his winger or go for the centre.
With a good experienced centre inside him he will do OK for you.
Always gave 100% in a Giants shirt. Neither pleased or unhappy he is going i am ambivalent about him going but wish him all the best.

I wish them all the best anyway.

I'm in one of my fearing the worst for RL moods at the moment & this game seemed to be witnessing the slow, painful death of a loved one, accompanied by a pair of useless droning morons speaking the orbituary. Fortunately yesterday's game rekindled my enthusiasm for the greatest sport on earth. Long live RL.
