I saw Martin Offiah, Vaiga Tuigamala, Kurt Sorensen, Jonathan Davies, Dean Bell, Mal Meninga and our own Ellery Hanley play in England plus cameos from Wally Lewis and Andrew Johns.

I didn't see SBW when NZ won the World cup and not since as he's been in Union, so is this man on his last pay day or the saviour of Superleague?

This is to me no more than an expensive stunt to cover the lack of substance, and all TWP ever seem capable of, I will go the the double header at Headingley but it will be to watch Hull, Cas and Leeds on the big opening day. Please don't anyone count me and thousands of others as being there to see the saviours of Rugby League and the greatest ever player on earth.

I might go to the double header at Headingley too, but only because I'll be on holiday when Toronto come to Warrington a couple of weeks later, so if I go to Leeds it will purely be to watch them and SBW.

But back on topic, Sonny Bill Williams is having a great impact on the awareness of rugby league around the world. We need to build on this, especially in the days leading up to SBW's debut against Castleford.

Quite and I’m sure you won’t let the opportunity pass by in proclaiming how much better it would be for the game if only they were playing Casablanca!

Well in 1994 or thereabouts the world beating all black John Gallagher came to Tattersfield with London Crusaders/Broncos for a second division play off game and a performance memorable only for it's total mediocrity, but let's hope SBW thrill you and me both at Headingley, if you go to the game(s) have a great time mate.....

Oh BTW did you go see Andrew Johns when he played at wire? I reckon he put two thousand on the gates, which SBW may well do at Headingley, but he'll need to really perform big style if he's going to keep doing that..........

“The product is world class, it is quality, and people have already got behind it. Who would have thought three years ago that you would now have ticket touts selling our $20 tickets for $200 outside the stadium to people who want to get in.”

I find that quote hard to believe I'd expect it from Jeannie but not nobby
