    Balkan Super League

    That is basically what it already is. They also play in pools so there's not really any limit to the number of teams in the comp, as long as they can divide it by 4 or 5.

    Balkan Super League

    I don't have Facebook. But there you go, 14 teams, even better.

    Balkan Super League

    I'm hearing at least 12 teams with Greek and Albanian teams joining.

    New York pro rugby league team

    No, David Moore and Moore Sports are behind the 2025 bid. Not sure what the Denver thing is all about TBH, it's a pretty random location, I guess the thought is that it's half way between NZ and England? Certainly not a place that has been targeted for RL development at all in the past or...

    New York pro rugby league team

    No mate, I'm from the UK, I know the situation and I'm telling you that this one won't be happening. You can keep discussing it if it makes you feel good but it isn't a goer. As things stand the slated timetable for North American expansion is another Canadian team in 2019 (likely to be...

    New York pro rugby league team

    Two of them are likely to be from the same guy who founded the Wolfpack, he's looking at a Canadian team in 2019 and a US team in 2020 and hopefully will deliver on that with the remaining bid likely to be considered afterwards if it's credible. As stated, the highly publicized New York bid can...

    'About' Six Million Dollars Profit!!!!!

    I believe the IRB make hosting nations pay a bond upfront and then reimburse them depending on the profits. IIRC the unsuccessful South Africa RLWC bid followed this model and offered 10 million upfront, I think that's the case for the 2025 USA bid too. So we probably lost out on money from...

    New York pro rugby league team

    He's not serious. I've known of this bloke for years, he used to post on British RL forums and run a fans website for Catalan Dragons. Take it from me, this won't be happening. And yes, I'm well aware of how insular Americans are. Thankfully RL is not an Australian product so that anecdote is...

    New York pro rugby league team

    That isn't the issue. The issue is that there is no team here. There is no presence in New York, there is nobody with any finance or business acumen, this is just some random fan from Huddersfield who is claiming that he's going to start a team in New York and sign all the world's best players...

    New York pro rugby league team

    Nope. More chance of a Perth team being in the NRL in 2019 than this team entering the RFL at any level. Seriously, this one is a non-starter.

    They would if they actually existed. Which they don't.

    Useless Articles of Clothing And Accessories

    Waistcoats, f**king hate them and they make the wearer look ridiculous IMO

    New York pro rugby league team

    If it wasn't obvious already the guys behind this have no credibility at all, UK media have pretty much clued up and stopped reporting on them at this point. But count on Aussie journos to promulgate a load of BS.

    Plans afoot to bring a New York club into Super League

    LOL when he realizes it's a sham

    Should Todd Carney be allowed back in the NRL?

    This moron acting like he hasn't been playing, and struggling, in ESL during that time.

    NRL.com - Aus to play NZ in Oct 2018 ??? + Mal wants 'Australia A' to play Pacific

    Yeah I'm not 100% against if they are forced to play as England and not England Knights and give it proper respect and billing, it's the Knights part that kills it and the fact that it would be a self-designated subordinate comp. I just posted on TRL about Segeyaro only having 4 international...

    NRL.com - Aus to play NZ in Oct 2018 ??? + Mal wants 'Australia A' to play Pacific

    Firstly they cannot give test status to a match involving a non-nation, that opens the door for the likes of NZ Maoris and the Aboriginals to compete in the World Cup. And secondly even if they do say it has full test status, it's still a nation vs another nation's reserves, you can wrap it up...

    NRL.com - Aus to play NZ in Oct 2018 ??? + Mal wants 'Australia A' to play Pacific

    So on that basis let's just scrap international sport altogether then.
