Looks like the Aus government will prop up a Fiji team in nsw cup also.
Good?
Someone tell the NSWRL to allow the Fiji Team in already.
Bludy hope so!Might be worth noting that the posters in the NSWRL competitions sub forum are itching for an exceptionally late NSW Cup draw.
Might there be a interesting reason the lateness of the draw? Perhaps a last minute team?

Also helps when the pm is a Newtown jets supporter. But none the less awesome news for RL in Fiji and the pacificThank you China!
Regarding the trials, is it just one game a year in Fiji or are their more happening across other countries. Tonga and Samoa would value the games just as much.
Its a great use of pre-season games too. In Aus, they usually get <500 and its tough taking regular season games away when teams back up the week after.
Teams can take their time, treat it like a holiday (so players should be on board) and do so good development work there too.
Producing talent for the NRL second only to NZ.If fiji get a team in the nsw cup they will be pushing the top 3 big time by the 2025 world cup. These people are made for the sport!
Nsw cup inclusions will open up a talent flood gate from fiji mark my words.
