    Lens

    One from the vault. In 2012, France vs Wales was played in Lens, way up in the north of France and pulled in a crowd of 12,000!!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqCPi9_UhmI I am curious, can anyone tell me how/why they chose this as the venue? As far as I can tell, there was no RL...

    2016 international program

    I don't want to get too far ahead of myself, as we're in the thick of this year's international matches. But I cannot help but wonder what will happen next year. So far we have confirmed: Ireland, Wales, Serbia, Russia, Italy, Spain (2 groups of 3, with 3 WC spots at stake). Ukraine will...

    How many mobile phones have you owned?

    I got my first phone in 2003, when I was in my last year of high school. Since then I've gone through a total of 4 phones. I never change for the hell of it, or to get the latest/coolest phone etc. I keep it until it stops working basically (and I'm still on the nokias too btw ;-) ) I imagine...

    Videos?

    It's taking an extra long time to load today. The reason being, because two rugby union videos are taking up all the space at the top of the page! :? Is anyone else seeing this??

    Crowd averages 2015

    (found on rlfans.com) it includes the Super 8s as well. If Bradford pull off the miracle and win on Sunday and take Wakefield's place in SL, one would expect the overall league average to rise as well.

    Youth World Cup

    Not sure if it's been mentioned here before as an idea, but what about if we were to run a Youth World Cup simultaneously to the regular WC? The reason I use the word 'youth' is because I believe the ages should vary according to strength of the nation. So, based on the teams at the last WC...

    Toulouse stadium upgrade denied?

    Can any Francophones help out here? http://actu.cotetoulouse.fr/travaux-du-stade-arnaune-a-toulouse-la-commission-denquete-publique-emet-un-avis-defavorable_18209/ As far as I can decipher; the proposal has been rejected because the noise of construction would 'disturb the residents'? I'll...

    Serbia-Ireland

    Well, that got a lot of coverage in 'mainstream' Rugby League media! They've never given minnow nations like this the time of day in the past (only to ridicule them), yet suddenly, they're all talking about this one incident! Wouldn't it be great if they could just once talk a bit about all...

    Wigan v Catalans @ London

    Just saw an ad for Wigan vs Catalans match in London, the Den (Milwall's stadium). Anyone know how this came about? Do they have a chance of attracting a respectable sized crowd? (I see capacity there is 20k)

    NRL player guest appearances in French League

    Remember a few years ago when Andrew Johns played a few matches for Warrington? I was thinking, this year, seeing as the Kangaroos are not playing any matches at the end of the season, how good would it be if a few of NRL's top players could go over and play 3-4 matches in France's Elite...

    Restructure in France

    Team budgets 2015/16

    Here are the team budgets from the season gone by... Anyone here in the know about French Rugby League? Can you shed any light on how next season may look? I would hope that the gap between the top 4 and the rest could start to close a little bit. Also, any idea on what the budget of a...
