People at the meeting at Eccles tonight seem to be reporting that a cross code game against Sale is going to happen. Not a fan of it myself - aside from finding union incredibly tedious to watch, i just see it as a good way to pick up a silly injury.

As a fan of both codes I'm really looking forward to this, if it actually happens!

I'm with Iain. We don't need to prove anything, we all know RL is the better code. All it does is expose our team to injuries.

How do cross code games play, one half following each set of rules? Maybe a chance to steal some Sale supporters if the recent post about them being disgruntled with union is true.

The one between Sale and Saints a few years ago was half of each. I really hate the idea of a hybrid game.

No need for this. We should be playing Swinton as a return favour for how they helped us out not mincing about with Sale in a nonsense game.

Can we not do both?

For the people worried about injuries, the lads are professional rugby league players not china dolls. Any injury they could suffer during a union game they are just as likely to suffer from a league game.

I think a lot of you should open your minds and I'm sure you will enjoy it, if it happens.

But if they suffered an injury in a league game it's an occupational hazard. Some 30st Jason Leonard type falling on Rangi Chase just before the season is exactly what we don't need. Hopefully no one bothers turning out for this and it never happens again.

I've never enjoyed watching rugby union when it's played by people who are good at it. I can't see my enjoyment being enhanced by it being played by people who are worse, just because they are familiar.

I played it for seven years when I was in school and try and watch the Six Nations every year before succumbing to boredom. I'd struggle to count the number of games on one hand that I've found exciting, I just find it mind-numbingly dull.

I went to watch Sale against Exeter with one of my mates last season where they managed a victory in one of the few games they did win during the year. Despite the tickets being free, we both agreed we would never go back again. On the way back to the car park we could only listen on in amazement when overhearing people saying it had been the best game of the season.

Couldn't disagree more. In order to decide that we don't like something means that we have watched it. We have based that decision on what we have seen.... and quite frankly... the majority of the time it's dire.

Also... and the main reason that this will be a bad idea is... the same thing will happen in this game that happened in the Saints v Sale game... The Union side will resort to the absolute basics of Rugby Union. They will play the aspects of the game that the league players are just not conditioned for, or know well enough to be competitive. When Sale played Saints, it was during a time when they were at their most expansive. Jason Robinson was at the top of his game and they played as near to league as a Union team could... it was almost watchable... They they turned up for this game and spent 40 minutes rucking and mauling... it was dreadful.

Nothing to do with injuries for me, I just don't want to watch Salford play union or Sale play league. An absolutely pointless d*ck measuring game.
