    RIP one of the best refs ever

    Should we bring back the Emerging nations RLWC?

    I know this was tried in the ambitious 2000 RLWC but times have changed. Maybe reduce the Mens RLWC to 12 teams and have running alongside it a 12 team emerging nations RLWC? Play as double headers at each game. Would help reduce the blow out early rounds and give more countries opportunity to...

    Time to rethink NRl mid season tests?

    Seems to me we now have a genuine need for nations like samoa, tonga, fiji etc to be able to play smaller test matches mid season on their home turf, and leave the end of season test window clear for big tournaments. Maybe the NRL needs to go back to Ch9 and start campaigning to move all origin...

    That ref

    Ok so if you didnt watch the wheelchair final you missed the most unbelievable non playing incident of the tournament. The game had ref’s by an English ref on one sideline and a French ref on the other. Not sure if the bloke had bet his house on France winning or just lost it but he argued with...

    NRL Reserve grade?

    This has popped up in discussion in the expansion threads but thought worthy of wider discussion. There are clearly moves afoot to create an NRL reserve grade. NSW NRL clubs are dropping their partnerships and getting ready to have funded reserve grade sides instead and the QRL has been...

    Wheelchair RLWC

    Worthy of its own thread. Have to say this is the first time I've watched nay wheelchair RL and I'm hooked! Amazing skill, bravery and effort. My sis lives in London and she messaged me during the week to tell me her and her husband had been to the eng game. They are big union fans (shame on...

    Well done Greece

    They may have copped a pasting from England and bowed out of the RLWC but just making the tournament was a true rugby league underdog story. Illegal in Greece until just recently thanks to the corruption of rugby union, being able to play in the world stage brings a legitimacy to the game in...

    Fox Coverage

    Thread for commentary and review of Fox’s RLWC coverage. Just watching the RLWC show from earlier in the week to get me in the mood for tonight. Pretty good with some good interviews and team footage. Off to a good start. brandys pronunciation of Sal-fud made me laugh.

    NRL Draft back on the agenda

    How could we have a draft when all Jnr elite development is tied to the NRL clubs already? Why would a club invest in a 16 year old if they can be drafted when they hit 18 or 20 to another club? How would that even work without an U21's comp to draft out of? It would need a massive overhaul of...

    2023 International calendar

    So aside from the fact we know there wont be any mid season tests in NRL how come we still have no clue what WILL be played? Does any other sport go from year to year with no clue about what it will do the next year on the international stage?
