    2017 Rep weekend venues

    Well I think the Tonga/Samoa and PNG/Fiji matches were so good that they surely deserve to be stand alone matches and not part of a double-header. So, which venues, could we choose and get the best possible crowds? I see no reason why we can't get 3/3 sellouts! PNG vs Fiji: I see no reason...

    Grand Final

    So, it will be Carcassonne vs Limoux in this season's Elite Grand Final! That's a pretty solid season from Limoux, making both the League and Cup Finals! Of course, they do go into this as underdogs, but still a great season for them and I'm sure achieved beyond their expectations. The...

    Only in Rugby League...

    ...spend 1000s of dollars to fly an English referee out to referee the, wait for it, Fiji vs PNG match! There are dozens of qualified, neutral (Aussie) refs there, so why on earth did this happen!? They put an Aussie to ref Aus vs NZ then an Englishman to ref the Pacific Test. Now I know...

    Live streaming

    Hi guys, Living abroad and really wanting to watch some matches. Anyone know if they do any live streaming? (just for the record, I don't mean dodgy/illegal streams, I mean do they do it on the QRL, ABC or Channel 9 website, for example?)

    Video ref solution

    Problem: Video ref gets used way too often in Rugby League. What I suggest as a solution: 'Tennis-style' video referees. What do I mean by that? Essentially, the on-field referee is solely responsible for awarding tries. However, a team can 'challenge' if they believe the try about to be...

    Belle Vue for sale

    600k price tag apparently. I hope Wakefield can muster the funds to buy it, would be a great way to secure their future. Then as Leeds have done, for example, bit by bit, over time they can improve and develop it into a much better stadium...

    Challenge Cup 2016

    Any idea when Round 1 gets drawn? Considering Round 1 is usually played in January, I thought they'd have done the draw by now. :?

    Free play rule

    I think this is one of the best ideas ever. The NRL have confirmed they will be implementing it now at this year's NRL 9s...

    Rugby League history

    Slightly off-topic, just read the article on this site about Canberra appointing a club historian. http://leagueunlimited.com/news/27151-raiders-appoint-club-historian#mvBJczriC55M0dlL.97 I think this is excellent news and I do hope others follow suit. I would also love to see this happen...

    A-League fans boycott

    Seems to still be steadily escalating. I wonder if the FFA will start to back down. Respect to Mark Bosnich. Great pundit in my opinion, not afraid to speak his mind and to speak out for the fans!!

    Unranked nations

    Did anyone see this part in the RLIF strategy?? What I cannot work out is how Bosnia-Herzogovina is not listed anywhere there! If I remember correctly, they have a 3-team league and their national side played two matches last year (vs Greece and Hungary). They've got the most obscure...

    RSA vs lebanese (live chat)

    Anyone else tuning in to the live stream later on? Would be good to get a bit of chat going... http://livestream.com/accounts/13477150/events/4427942/player?width=640&height=360&autoPlay=true&mute=false Just note, given that most of Europe wound the clocks back an hour overnight, the kick off...

    If every match was televised live...

    I've been thinking about this, NRL has reached the point where every match is televised live. If the same were to happen in SL, would this be a good or bad thing? Are there perhaps some matches we don't want to be televised? For example, Salford vs Catalans, with only 2000 spectators there...

    How would FIFA-style qualifiers look in Rugby League?

    So basically, as you all know, in soccer, EVERY nation (that plays the game) has the right to take part in the qualifiers. In Rugby League, there are currently 36 RLIF ranked nations. If they all had the right to play in the qualifiers, then we might be left with something like this: Pacific...

    ENG vs FRA

    Looking forward to this match. Sadly it's not getting the respect it deserves and is being overshadowed by Leeds vs NZ plus the upcoming England/NZ series. No TV coverage either :( For the first time today I saw a mention of it on one of RFL's social media pages, make of it what you will...
