The omission of the NSW-England wheelchair match from our website is deliberate: the game was not played to official rules, so is not considered first-class.
The lack of recent internatiionals in the men's and women's game will though be rectified shortly! Watch this space :-)

@salfordreddevils.bsky.social have now used 68 players this season, which is a record for a club in the top flight.
It isn't an all-time record for the pro-ranks though, and in fact there are 3 teams who have used more.
London Skolars hold the record with 72 in their debut season in 2003.

Incredible achievement by Paul Sykes, and great to see this getting the recognition it deserves.
Also nice to see we can still talk about proper all-time records, not faux manufactured ‘competition only’ ones 👍

I think Sykes played his best rugby in London - can’t remember if they were Broncos or Quins - but remarkable that he’s still going at nearly 44

With his score today Herman Ese'ese equalled the record for tries in consecutive matches by a prop in the summer era, tying Tyler Dupree's record of 6 for Oldham in 2021.
The winter era is not easy to analyse at this stage, but this is likely to be an all-time record too.

Great to hear that @hullkr.bsky.social have confirmed they will be announcing attendance figures game-by-game again this season.
This is a really positive step in being transparent & sharing information, and we hope other clubs take their lead in reversing their earlier decision 👏

A blank weekend for Hall & Charnley means no change in the 300 try club.
With his hat-trick on his return to @leedsrhinos.bsky.social, Ryan Hall moved to within 5 tries of Mick Sullivan's 19th spot on the all-time try scorers chart. He's now 27 clear of Josh Charnley, who could move into the top 25 in the next few weeks
