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?.

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.

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.

Bloody hell. He’s not really human is he? What a man. He is a hero in every sense of the word. Unbelievable.

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 know there are unprecedented circumstances at the moment, but be great if @Rob7Burrow could lead @leedsrhinos out at Wembley. Hope it can happen. #leedsrhinos.

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.
THANK YOU 💙💛 We have passed the incredible £5⃣0⃣0⃣,0⃣0⃣0⃣ mark for @Rob7Burrow and @mndassoc .➡️ Please do keep supporting

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.

WHAT. A. GAME. WHAT. A. SPORT. Rugby League is so so good. What a fantastic game. Commiserations to @Saints1890 who gave it everything. Congratulations to @WarringtonRLFC who stay alive in the play offs after George Williams golden point drop goal. Unbelievable ending.

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.

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.

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.

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 @CTRLFC v @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.
Rugby League is a brutal game on the field. but things can also be tough for players off it. @DanikaMason9 #9News

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.

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
