Leeds Rhinos head coach Brad Arthur said:”I’ve not whinged or complained the whole time I’ve been here. I’m extremely proud of our team and our club and players.”I don’t know what more we could have really done. We got a couple of bits and pieces wrong but so did they. It just would have been really nice if the game was decided by an individual or a piece of skill.”We’re talking about a field goal or something like that rather than a soft penalty to decide such a big game. It is a soft penalty.”Ned got escorted four or five…
The final spots in WWE’s Money in the Bank ladder matches will be decided next week. Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens, and Johnny Gargano battle for the last spot in the men’s match.

Bath head of rugby Johann van Graan speaking to BBC Radio Somerset: “I thought we started really well. I think we managed the first half really well and to go into the changing room up, away from home, in your first league game, that’s something we were really happy about. “We stuck to our DNA, we were tough to beat and ultimately we’ve got to be happy with that performance. Loads of things to work on but we’ll take an away win in round one. We had loads of opportunities. “Importantly we didn’t give them a bonus because one point…

He reacted to Ruud’s triumphant final smash with a jubilant scream, his legs dramatically giving way as he slid down his seat on to the ground.Alcaraz is well aware of his status as the leading star of this year’s event,…
Northampton Saints’ Tommy Freeman told BBC Radio Northampton:”Good start and lots of points on the board which good to see but I think there is loads more in us which is what we said at half-time, but overall a good result.”Our set piece we need to tighten up a bit on that first phase.

There is a reason for that but…

At first glance, it looks like WWE is just putting another show up against AEW Dynamite. Alvarez, however, said the more interesting part is that WWE is also scheduling Main Event directly against its own Evolve program. “So…
