It's great to finally find someone else on B/R that watches Rugby League!

I've been trying to get the Rugby League section up and running, but as yet haven't had any luck. Hopefully in the coming months we will be able to start writing league articles.

I see you're a dragons supporter. Sorry! :-) (GO ROOSTERS!)

You can help. Please give a read and "pay this forward" Some things are bigger than sports.
