    Updated World Rankings!!

    I think the rankings are based on games in the past 3 years, average number of games etc so because of this points can be won and lost in hard to understand ways for most but it's similar to the FIFA rankings which go from the past 4 years

    Emerging Nations?

    Any one know if EN will be around in 2013?

    Should it be 5/6 nations in future?

    Like someone said above I'd have France in it fulltime and be pretty much like the early World Cups. France over time will become more competitive and possibly be able to match the big 3 like old times

    There would surely be some sort of Rugby League in West Papua which is part of Indonesia??

    Emerging Nations?

    Any talk about an Emerging Nations Cup yet?? Would it be unlikely since there wasn't one last time?? I think it would be great with so many new national sides playing RL and they need the matches. Ideally I'd have the 5 nations who were in the qualifiers (Serbia, Russia, Lebanon, South...

    Another PNG Team for QLD in 2014

    There should be some sort of program to get PNG players trialling with NRL clubs. So many are good enough to play first grade in NRL

    Italy

    They do, but yes the RLIF player rule is ridiculous. Very happy that Italy made it. Was searching twitter for score updates and saw they were 18-0 at HT. Was thinking to go bed, it's over, then the next update was with a few minutes left at 18 all and my heart was racing. Big relief to hear the...

    Lebanon

    ah hope I haven't made it look like Italy deserved it more than Lebanon, it's more they both COULD deserve to be there ahead of others who gained auto entry. With the current player rule, on paper they both deserve to be there but I do not agree with the current rule and too many nationas are...

    Lebanon

    For the first part, yes Italy still have alot of work to do to and have a more professional structure locally. The split screwd things up and the FIRL were pretty much in a rush to have a natioanl side fit the RLIF criteria to be part of a World Cup. They did still have Italian born players...

    Lebanon

    8 of them have actually. After the 2008 qualifiers in 07, where did the Australian heritage players go in 08 when Lebanon lost 80-0 to Russia? Most of Italy are semi pro to ????? Italy had 4 players max with NRL experience and Lebanon had 2, possibly even more. Italy had one or 2 more...

    Lebanon

    I'm an Italian fan and extremely happy and excited that they are in the World Cup but at the same time feel for Lebanon. Why did so many other nations get automatic entry? Both Italy and Lebanon probably have more local players than Samoa, Tonga, Cook Islands, Scotland and Ireland. Can possibly...
