This is an older article 2 yrs old almost to the day, but an insteresting read:

So in short, League players work harder for their money, their prospective employers are 2 leagues (Super League and NRL). Union players work less for their money, and have much more prospective employers, AVIVA, Top 14, Super Rugby, Rabodirect.

Here are a few articles on rugby league:

I love that you quote me and still can't seem to grasp what the words mean. Did I say high profile players routinely leave union to play league? Hmm, sure doesn't look like it. The wiki page supports my statement, unfortunately it doesn't support some made up statement that I didn't make.

And thanks for an article about league in the UK, which I have never discussed, and one that is about an underlying entity that has a 50% stake in a team, not the team itself.

Ironically enough that link did lead me to this page eventually.

There's a nice example for you.

Honestly, what's your problem? I don't understand the butthurt mentality that people like you take when someone has the gall to say that they prefer league to union. Grow up.
