BL, no.
Some of us saw it first hand.

It was THAT noticeable.

If a certain player hadn't brought it up to divert attention away from his own activities no one would know or care.

Well if the Saints and Wigan players could get on back then. It surely means that it was the Leeds players being absolute teapots in Aus.

I mean there discipline this season as been shocking. Constantly having a go at any referee that will listen,

Good work sherlock, that must be the reason.

Top guy.

I've just finished reading Radlinskis book (well worth a read if you are a Rugby League fan)

Anyway, when Rads had to pack in for the last time, Wello was one of the first to send him a message, as was Scully.

It was also mentioned how the Wigan and Saints players got on well when on International duty, and many are good friends. It makes you wonder what happened last year in Aus though.

Rads also has some great things to say about Cunningham.

Farrell used to live next to Joynt (Don't know if he still does), but they were good mates. Two captains of the enemy.

Radlinski was always one of the few Wigan players i thought were OK.

Radlinski is difficult to dislike really - his only fault was playing for the wrong team. A top player who was not dirty and very loyal to his home town club, all admirable traits

Anyone who loves their Rugby League should read his book. It's a great insight into the hard work he put in, and what he thinks is wrong at the moment.

The "Billy big time young players" who think they've made it once they've made their first team debuts being a good example.

Not really, players have brought it up at functions.

You'll always perform better with people you get on with.
