Magic Weekend : Thu Aug 15, 2024 3:24 pm  

Anybody missing it? I'm not, especially not at that venue. I can understand the attraction of a big show-piece event, but for me that should be the Challenge Cup at Wembley...not the bore-fest of a Hull v London or Huddersfield v Cas dead rubber of a game. I won't even be watching it on TV, it would be a waste of the nice weather on Saturday and there's a much more meaningful game at Belle Vue on Sunday.

Whatever the answer is to Rugby Leagues struggles, and watching Joe Batchelor somehow keep cool during that cringeworthy TalkSport interview there is definitely a problem, I don't think Magic Weekend is the answer.

Nope, no interest from me.

I enjoy Magic Weekend when it goes to venues such as Newcastle or Cardiff, however the likes of Elland Road and Anfield does not suit it one bit.

We'll probably watch most of the games either live or afterwards but so long as Cas and the Whino's both lose then I'm not too fussed for it

Just another round of SL games to watch on TV.

Re: Magic Weekend : Thu Aug 15, 2024 7:27 pm  

maybe catch a Saturday game or two on TV. Sunday at Belle Vue for me.

I like the tv SL matches,catch most of them,including Magic Weekend,and can't wait to be part of it all again.

We are away on holiday so miss it, we would only have gone for the Warrington game, for obvious reasons, but glad not to go to the dump of Bellend road,

I thought the concept of the Magic weekend was to open up rugby to different areas of the UK, not preaching to the converted.
