    He Can Play For... Wales!

    Out of interest, who are the other 7?

    Origin - Disrespectful to the Kangaroos?

    It's obviously a big deal culturally - if you are from Qld or NSW - but as a game Origin is poor. I stopped watching a couple of years back and yesterday was my first since then. I don't think I'll be rushing back to watch it again tbh.

    English lower leagues

    They are not comparable at all. The Cowboys don't go bust every few years chasing the other teams, for a start. I'd never say Leigh (or any club) should "settle for mediocrity" but they have never shown any sense of realism. They build nicely for a few years, then they get all excited and...

    English lower leagues

    I've lost count of how many times Leigh have done this in the 22(ish) years I've been following RL. Put together a decent team, get ideas about themselves, throw some more money at it to recruit faded stars, upset the players already at the club, find they're not generating the additional...

    Jamaica WCQ squad

    There's a lot of wingers in that squad. And perhaps a little light up front?

    Jamaica WCQ squad

    I'm glad that all 3 countries in the Americas are taking the long-term approach to national team (and player) development. It can make for varying performance levels at times but will absolutely stand them in good stead.

    Canada WCQ squad

    Two of those - Bain and Bouchard - are both Canadians who've emigrated, the latter specifically to play RL. Decent looking squad. It's going to be a good tournament.

    Prime Ministers 13 – PNG v Australia

    That would be Segeyaro who has played numerous times for PNG? And Campbell-Gillard who has played for Fiji? Plus ca change.

    English lower leagues

    It's all over for the Broncos, as far as I can see. Andrew Henderson was interviewed last week and this move was discussed - he all but admitted that Hughes was looking to reduce his financial input and that the'd found a cheap venue to enable that. Trouble is, no-one at the club seems to...

    English lower leagues

    Just to expand upon the Broncos crowd and general situation - the club has all but confirmed they are moving to play at a venue in Ealing, which would be annoying in itself if it were simply yet another move. But this is worse than that because Ealing Trailfinders RU club essentially play in a...

    New USA Hawks coach

    Not only is Brian McDermott an excellent coach (should have the England job ahead of McNamara IMO) but he's also a really good guy with the game's best interests at heart. When he was at London he went out of his way to help coaches at the local community clubs - right away noticing that...

    Hull sides to "merge" academy sides

    Yep, there is a scandalous waste of young players going on. The pool is too small, with every club fighting over the meagre resources. You'll produce just as many SL players via one joint academy as via two, probably more in fact because the playing/training/coaching levels will be higher and...

    Strongest French Lineup

    Gigot looks better at centre now than he ever did in the halves. Some quality coming through in France though, and we're finally seeing English clubs taking on not just pros but youngsters too.

    Lega IRFL - what recognition in Italy means

    Congratulations! You are no longer rebels, merely a sub-sect of rugby f*cking union.

    Rlif ceo

    The NRLs Pacific strategy is to grow the NRL, not to grow international RL.
