https://www.ebbsfleetunited.co.uk/feath ... ebbsfleet/ London Broncos next 2 homes are on the road. This Sunday at home to Sheffield Eagles and the following Sunday at home to Fev both at Ebbsfleet FC Kuflink Stadium in Kent Should all clubs play a game on the road every year to try and increase interest in the game?

They did and should be brought back. We need to expand interest in the game

I know the government has bunged some money to keep the World Cup going, so no one complained about this but ANY Minister/ Sec of State should be on top of their brief at least to the extent of knowing Wilkinson’ dg won the World Cup of the Toff’s code!

Agree, I flew from Newcastle airport the other day and shockingly there wasnt a single advert anywhere for Magic or the World Cup. Thousands of passengers a day to target yet RL marking missing in action as always.

Theyve just started the usual round of sharing clips of Magic Weekend tries to people who already follow SL on social media...but do many really book last minute?

As for on the road games its debatable if they win any new fans in the long term. Kent is a bit of oddity that no sport is massive there though and anything is worth a try for London.

The Broncos have moved their Sheffield and Featherstone games away from Plough Lane as there's pitch maintenance happening.

Yes, someone should've briefed her far better than this, given she's the Minister for SPORT, amongst other things, apparently.

As for the 'toffs code', try saying that in Pill Harriers clubhouse, or 90% of clubhouses in Wales for that matter.
