Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Wigan could be prepared to release a player who has not established himself at the JJB. The saving they would make on their salary cap could be used to finance a move for a big name from Australia, such as Trent Barrett or Shaun Timmins.

Castleford have denied any move to bring one of last season's promotion side, Jon Hepworth, back from Ireland, where he has been playing rugby union for Leinster. The Castleford coach Terry Matterson is being linked in Australia with vacancies at both Canberra and Newcastle next season.

The Rugby League has referred Warrington's complaint, that Huddersfield's water carrier impeded a player on Sunday, to its disciplinary commissioner.

Salford's John Wilshere has been referred to the disciplinary committee over a suspected illegal throw during the win over the Catalan Dragons. The Dragons captain Stacey Jones has had an operation in Perpignan on the arm, broken in a tackle in the same match, that will keep him out for up to two months.
