    What must Australia do to catch up with NZ and England?

    Following the slaughter tonight, I am wondering what everyone thinks needs to be done to the Australian game in order for them to catch up to the best two teams in the world, NZ and England? Clearly England should be rated above Australia as in the matches that meant something involving these...

    England: the keys to victory

    OK, take a couple of seconds to get all the jokes out of the way..........ok? Done? Here're the screeny's key's for victory. Positional changes Smith has to drop Wellens and Sinfield/include Higham and Westwood, move Ellis to lock perhaps. We can beat NZ with Wello but it'll lull is into false...

    RL to take on RU in Fiji

    According to their coach, and judging by the response of the fans wanting to buy satellite dishes he'd be right. This is what we've always said...the Pac islands can see RL become numero uno in a jiffy given the right strategy. And this is also why rah rahs like pouring scorn over us, as...

    RLIF reconsidering QNs

    According to our Colin, France is on the outer: "The Rugby League International Federation, meanwhile, may reconsider plans to include France in a Four Nations tournament next autumn after their 42-6 thrashing by Fiji in Wollongong on Saturday. "That was disappointing - I thought they had...

    Necessary England changes

    Smith, wake up and smell the coffee, we can't carry a few of the players who you have shown loyalty to. Firstly, as an anti-Sinfield person I will say he defended well enough today to keep his place. But f**k me dead Wilkin is a no mark f**king prick sh*t-kicker. What's the point of him...

    Best line of commentary so far

    I am lucky enough to be watching on Showsports in the Mid East, which is devoid of Hemmings and Stevo thank god. I've heard some great lines so far, which are your faves? The best I've heard is: - "NASA should save money by asking Pat Richards to kick rockets into space!" - "Yeah, Whizz...

    All is forgiven Nigel

    Those of us, and I was one of the worst offenders, who criticised Vagana for paying lip-service to Samoan RL development should tuck into our humble pie. From the SMH: "Vagana has adopted an ambassador role for Samoa, already helping coax the country's Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele...

    Good news alert!

    From today's Sporting Life.com "Ticket sales for the four-week tournament have passed the £2million (Australian dollars five million) mark and organisers say the final at Suncorp Stadium is a guaranteed 52,500 sell-out. Meanwhile, RFL executive chairman Richard Lewis has confirmed Britain's...

    Financial reality of the WC?

    Saw this in an article about player bonuses for the WC in Fox RL section. 'ARL chairman Colin Love revealed in May that the Rugby League International Federation would have to pay $20 million to stage the 10-team, five week tournament across Australia's east coast. Having already recouped $16...

    2009 calendar revealed?

    Maybe I've missed an announcement, but this comment from Dixon interested me: "Our goal in 2009 is to beat Serbia and Ireland and to be the second best nation in the northern hemisphere and from there in 10 years' time, who knows? We might be the best."...

    The most pleasure from RL

    I was wondering from where everyone derives the most pleasure in RL. For me, this question came up when I was watching this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agryM5LUAk4 We talk so much about so much involved in RL but for me seeing people from non-traditional areas take up TGG is the ultimate...

    Nigel Vagana's drive to improve Samoan RL

    I was not aware that NV's passionate bid to re-energise Samoan RL involved him pissing off to French RU at the merest whiff or a contract that he has instructed his agent to go and seek! Nice one Nigel, you are characteristic of modern day Samoan RL practises.

    Jamaica footage on You Tube

    About three or four clips from one match on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU86mdm34Nw...feature=related The above is one. Massive respect to the JRLA. Domestic comps is what development should be about, much more valuable than once-in-a-blue-moon national team fixtures and a true...

    SBW: the example for Islander players

    A lots been said about SBW, obviously, but from my point of view - a RL fan first and foremost - I feel for the code and how SBW has betrayed it. SBW has barked loud and long about how he feels Islander players don't have a voice and how they get taken advantage of. But now, in one fell swoop...

    Toulouse to NL1

    Rumours in the English papers today suggest the French will be put into NL1. That will do me, a sort of grooming process pre-SL 2012.

    Jiffy: three years or bust for Welsh RL

    Today on the BBC JD proves to me that he doesn't really understand the essence of RL. Advocating CC's bid he says: "They'll have three years, the first season will be very difficult for people to adjust both on and off the field but there's no relegation. If it's not working you'll know...

    SBW in the WC

    I read a few of the Aussie media report on Canterbury's win v Brisbane this weekend. Most of them centred on SBW's ubiquitous display in defence. I presume he was playing at lock? In the last couple of games he played for NZ he was played at 2nd row. IMO this is insane as he's forced to limit...

    Scottish Bronco?

    Colin Love reveals RLIF big stick...

    In an article on stuff.co.nz regarding the possible non-release of NZ players by UK clubs due to the looming CC draw on 21 April, Colin Love is quoted thus: "We [the RLIF] like to be reasonable about it: we wouldn't want to wield the big stick, but we have the interests of the international...
