    North Queensland Cowboys rope in Vanuata prodigy Kunro Kalo

    Is this guy turns out to be any good, what's the bet that Mal Meninga will be trying to brainwash him to convince him that he is a Queenslander?

    Thailand Rugby League Determines Pathway

    I believe this is a separate organisation to the Thai RL that organised the Thai national team to play the Philippines in Bangkok. I am not sure which one is recognised by the RLIF, but the Thailand vs Philippines match played on 21st October was endorsed by the RLIF and even had the RLIF logo...

    2013 NRL Draw

    Does anyone have any inside mail / rumours as to where the following matches will be played? Warriors home game vs Bulldogs - TBC Bulldogs home game vs Storm - TBC John Grant did say when he was in Perth a few weeks back that there will definitely be 3 games in Perth next year, but only one...

    Portugal vs Japan

    I think you will find that the Japanse are coming to Australia primarily for the Cabramatta 9's, with a game against Portugal being an add-on. I hope that this trip to Australia still leaves them with enough money to play Thailand or the Philipines in an Asia Cup at the end of next year. They...

    Commission to outlaw 'shoulder charge'

    A player putting on a shoulder charge might weigh 10-20 kgs heavier these days compared to two decades ago, but so does the recipient of the tackle. It evens itself out. All they had to do was reduce the interchanges to ensure more fatigued forwards - just like the old days. This in itself...

    Commission to outlaw 'shoulder charge'

    I am gutted with this decision. Totally ridiculous and such an over-reaction. Rules were already in place for dealing with contact to the head. If a shoulder charge does not hit the head then what's wrong with it? Does this mean we also ban tackling next becuase head-high tackles are...

    The best video of international league this season

    Why isn't this on TV in Australia? Looking at all the rubbish Fox Sports show at 3 in the morning or even in daytime hours surely this would rate better.

    Adrian Morleys 'Welsh' brother

    The RLIF need to employ a full time official to inspect birth certificates and any other evidence to prove that every player for every single national team from Australia, england, and New Zealand thru to Serbia, Norway, Jamaica and Wales qualify for the country they are supposed to represent...

    West Coast Pirates Bid News

    Your sentiments are the same as mine. Just thought I would post Mascord's comments here considering he put the idea out there and it was apparently discussed. Aside from the logistical and cost issues, I can't see the UK Super League admitting a team which will no doubt only be a short-term...

    England vs France Nov 3

    Sorry have to disagree with parts of your e-mail here. The England side would beat the Australian Prime Minister's X111 on most occasions. And yes whilst I agree that the PNG Prime Minister's X111 performaces are very creditable against the Australian Prime Minister's X111, these matches are...

    2013 Bundy Cup

    West Coast Pirates Bid News

    Intersting snippet from Steve Macord in his column last week. Perth Red - have you heard any murmurings along these lines?? http://stevemascord.com/2012/10/29/bondi-beat-september-2012-2/ IN this column we have suggested before that teams frustrated with the wait to join the NRL should apply...

    the ARLC

    If you play for NSW or Queensland you are an Australian. And you play for Australia. If you look at a map, NSW is in Australia and so is Queensland. NSW cannot be found anywhere in New Zealand. The internatuional rules need to be made more clear cut so there is less instances of players...
