Hello there Rugby league fans. An early evening mid week read as been busy doing what I do during the day (wouldn't you like to know!)
So if you're bored and fancy a quick rugby read click your mouse on these links.
So what's his excuse this week, well it was bank holiday so you get a Tuesday quiz, maybe I should call it first business day of the week quiz, maybe not.
Anyway this weeks theme isn't the number 11, nope – no theme at all really.
1. Whos playing CV?
St Helens – Wigan – Canterbury Bulldogs – Harlequins (RU) – Orrell (RU) – Leeds Rhinos – Widnes Vikings – Munster (RU)
2. Who's the ref waiting in the tunnel during this weeks Millenium Magic weekend?
3. Slightly different for name the teams, again from the Magic Weekend, can you name all four teams mascots in the picture?
If you can tell me the mascots names there's an extra point in it for each of them you can name.
4.
Which English Ex-Rugby League player currently playing with Saracens Rugby Union announced his retirement recently?
5.
The City Country teams have been announced for the Australian representative sides, but out of 83 games who has won the most? (bonus point for how many)
6.
There have been two draws in the history of the competition, last years 22 -22, when the other one? (you can have a point if you get within 5 years)
Answers after the click

points up for grabs!

Well I'm sure you're all well on your way to Murrayfield by now. But if not and you've decided to stay back at home then clear your schedule for a weekend of Rugby league all the way from the Scottish capital.
And whilst Magic weekend has robbed of my Friday night rugby I have to find something else to do but how do I think the weekend will go, just like this:
Saturday, 02 May 2009
Salford v Harlequins RL
Wakefield v Bradford
Wigan v St Helens
Sunday, 03 May 2009
Catalans Dragons v Leeds
Huddersfield v Celtic Crusaders
Hull v Castleford
Warrington v Hull KR
So there ya go, I think a good weekend for those from Hull and I think Catalan maybe able to pull off a win against the struggling Leeds team.
