theres a lot more money in club RU than RL. Why?

im not really sure, thier crowds are no bigger but they get a bigger tv contract despite the fact that RL has bigger tv viewing figures than RU, seems strange but its true.

some league players switch but its not that many really,

league forwards are not built for union and many backs just dont like it or just dont have any interest RU, a bit like most of the fans.

Theres still a strong sense of us and them between the 2 codes.

What country are u talking about? In Australia they don't get a bigger TV contract...

Super14 isnt on free to air TV either.. and the total amount of viewers for the entire S14 season in Aus was 2.3 million, last weeks origin alone rated 3.3 million viewers so 1 game of RL beat the entire Super14 season.

im talking about england, both the RU and RL club games are on sky tv which you need to pay for. RL gets bigger viewing figures but RU gets a bigger contract from sky.

I'd be confident in saying neither Hull club will get anywhere near the final

yep

He has won 29 games in a row with Melbourne... and he hadn't lost a game since 2005 until last Wednesday when QLD lost. 32 game winning streak.
