i believe the RFL have done a deal with Rhino to use their branded balls this SL season, a bit like the Steeden deal in operation last year.
From the ones ive seen, when they get wet the ball is like a bar of soap and the Aussies wont use them so come the RLWC the games revert to Steeden. I'm sure the English based players will get re familiarized with Steeden but v NZ and the Aus we dont need anything to put us back. Only a little thing, but its the little things that make the difference.
Gregg McNally in today's League Express describes them as "Rhino carrier bags....I mean rugby balls". Leon Pryce tweeted about them also - don't seem to have met with much approval?
