Thanks for mentioning this programme, vasty.
Excellent no holds barred documentary that didn't really tell anything that most rugby league followers didn't know already i.e, that the Welsh RU were nothing more than bigoted, racist hypocrites.
A couple of years ago ex Trinity Welsh winger Brian Juliffe gave a talk at the Red Shed about how he was ostricised by the Welsh RU when he joined us. He said that people and friends in his home town wouldn't give him the time of day.
Unfortunately Wakefield Trinity were not mentioned in the programme even though we have a history of signing some excellent Welsh ex RU players over the years.
The sad part is that there are probably modern day RL supporters who are unaware of the animosity that did, and probably still does, exist between the two codes.
