    Replace Test footy with an annual Champions League tournament.

    But you did say the other sports are rarely taken seriously outside of America and a few other countries. And I'm just saying that rugby league is in virtually the same boat when it comes to where it is taken seriously. My point, I guess is this - outside of supporters of the Kangaroos, Kiwis...

    Replace Test footy with an annual Champions League tournament.

    And rugby league is rarely taken seriously outside of Eastern Australia and Northern England.

    Greek merchandise!

    Hahaha. That's funny. If I had been drinking milk when I read that it would have come out my nose.:D

    OK a question on trainers?

    OK, then I will apologize for even thinking that he would do something like that.

    OK a question on trainers?

    Now, I wasn't there, and have heard nothing, but let me guess. Was a certain member of the Tomahawks constantly on the field? Hmm I wonder who that may have been? Are his initials DN. I could be wrong about this, but ...

    Storm game v Tomahawks is off

    That is not what I'm referencing, but I'm not prepared to go any further, other than to say my source said, as I paraphrased in the first post, "rumoured to be."

    Colonial Cup 2012

    I would really like to see an unbiased report comparing the two games (Toronto and Fairfield) from someone who will be onsite at both contests. Say - that would be you dru. I really don't care about the score - that will be easy enough to access - but more the presentation of the contest. Game...

    Storm game v Tomahawks is off

    Everyone's frustrations aside - the fact remains, Niu made another grand announcement (re: Melbourne v Tomahawks) and failed to deliver, AGAIN. How do you defend that gyallop. You seem to be in his corner. What do you have to say about the game being called off? I can only speak for myself, but...

    Storm game v Tomahawks is off

    The AMNRL's spin page over at We are Rugby is saying that the Melbourne Storm v USA Tomahawks game has been called off. This news, along with rumours that the AMNRL and Grand Prix Rugby are on the outs, suggests that things are back to normal in David Niu's world.

    France's proposed Super 13 Pro League - Which teams?

    Just a thought on Super 13's involvement with soccer clubs. Seattle Sounders FC of MLS are under the same umbrella as the Seattle Seahawks of the NFL due to Paul Allen's involvement with both ownership groups. In some circles the Sounders are considered the most successful expansion franchise...

    Bulldogs defeat Avalanche

    Unfortunately one needs to subscribe to the Kelowna Daily Courier to see the article, but this is the text sent to me by the BCRL rep I spoke about. The B.C. Bulldogs gave fans what they came to see. A showcase of Rugby League - a faster, harder-hitting version of the sport than the...

    Bulldogs defeat Avalanche

    A further update. I corresponded with the BCRL's development officer about yesterday's game. It was played under international rules with two 40-minute halves, an accredited Australian referee and two official touch judges. A Kelowna newspaper account of the contest said there were a "few...

    Bulldogs defeat Avalanche

    I'll add a little more here. The Apple Bowl seats over 1,000 in a recently refurbished grandstand with an additional 1,200 in aluminum bleachers (I'm asssuming they are across the field from the grandstand). I don't know how many attended the game, but the site has hosted two Canadian Bowls...

    Bulldogs defeat Avalanche

    Although I had hoped to attend the game, work commitments forced me to cancel (I'm a two hour ferry ride and about six hours driving away from Kelowna), so I wasn't there. But I have no reason to believe it wasn't anything other than a regular game. I'm not sure the Avalanche would have...

    Bulldogs defeat Avalanche

    Nothing to report other than a score, but I am sure I will have more information in the coming days. The British Columbia Bulldogs, a select team from British Columbia Rugby League, defeated the AMNRL's Utah Avalanche 48-12 on Saturday afternoon in Kelowna.

    One out of left field: New pro League comp?!

    I understand where you are coming from with this cervantes. My frustration lies with the fact that so many are poking holes in this endeavour before it even gets off the ground. This and other efforts to start pro comps have been poo-pooed on this forum on a constant basis. Witness the efforts...

    Canada v Jamaica play in front of over 4,000!

    I really don't know much about what is going on in Ontario, except what I hear from sources here in British Columbia. As cervantes says - having the game as part of the Caribbean festival certainly helps. I was at the festival over 30 years ago. It was huge then, I can only imagine how much it...
