WELCOME to what we hope will be the rebirth of rugby league Nines! My name’s Steve Mascord. I’ve been a rugby league journalist in Australia and Britain for more than 35 years. Like just about everyone who’s been around the game that long, we’ve seen some amazing triumphs, freakish players, gob smacking bravery … and plenty of missed opportunities. Before…
By STEVE MASCORD  EVEN if Leeds win the World Club Challenge in Melbourne, it’s possible it won’t cause as much uproar in the English media as the comments of the Rhinos chief executive Gary Hetherington.
