    4 year cycle....the definitive thread!

    I like the idea of keeping it simple and building on what's already been put in place, to solidify the regular international competition. 2014 and 2015 Four Nations as is with Euro and Pacific Cups at the same time to give a clear pathway into the 'big show' and the lucrative rewards that...

    RLIF Rankings page

    Does anyone know how they work out these numbers? Browsing them now they seem to be quite accurate. Which actually surprises me a little. Australia almost doubles England in third place. Which sounds about right going on results, with New Zealand half way between the two. The curve is...

    Video-on-demand games in Australia

    That's the thing - I'm quite happy to pay honest to goodness money. But no one seems to want it. Is there an app or something?

    Video-on-demand games in Australia

    All I'm after is video-on-demand for every game of the World Cup that I can watch from here in Aus. I won't be able to stay up late to watch every single game so I want to be able to catch them at the earliest possible moment the next day, probably at work during my lunch break. Beginning to...

    France/USA warm-up to be streamed live

    Tell. Me. More. Let's get this this shindig started.

    RLWC Game times (In Oz)

    *Groan* The 28th of October is going to be zombie day at work for me. But I'd be really screwed if it weren't for the lack of daylight savings. It's about time that started to pay off.

    Re-structure of Super League- Conference style

    That's the thing about this idea - the top tier will be playing for the comp, the second tier will be playing for a top tier start next season, but the third tier... why are they even playing beyond the mid season cut off? The top two tiers are going to be fantastic. But the bottom tier will be...

    A new system

    And why are they trying it now? Isn't Superleague the closest it's been in decades? I thought that the whole point of licensing was to upgrade facilities etc through forced competition focused on off field factors - a closed hothouse environment to give everyone a kick start. If they get rid of...

    A new system

    Just heard about this. Is it legit? So, as I understand it, there's two divisions of 12, they play each other to see who will make the top and bottom 8. The top 8 of div 1 go off to play the finals, the bottom 8 of div 2 go off to play for... the wooden spoon, and the 8 remaining teams play off...

    2013 Memberships

    Good statting slm. Very helpful. Looks like good healthy growth per club but most of it at the smaller teams. In terms of the overall number that may look a little disappointing to some but those are the teams who need the boost the most. And there's a ways to go yet before we see the final...

    All Stars rule experiment - rugby league lineouts.

    I'll stand by the idea. As an idea. Although I shouldn't have used the L word. Apparently that's LU's equivalent of yelling 'pro-gay marriage' in an American church. But I think Saint Doc's point is valid - there'd be no way of dictating who would be a 'forward' or 'back'. And if the forwards...

    All Stars rule experiment - rugby league lineouts.

    Was just thinking about the new referees 'regime' or whatever the hell is going on over there and how this will be their first time picking experimental rules for the All Stars game. It dredged up an idea I had a while back that I thought I'd present for further comment: The scrum is useless...

    2 Tier Super League?

    A 2 tier system would only work if they had exactly the same salary cap in both divisions. Then the teams are all on the same footing as clubs and the achievement of making it to the grand final would be all about on field performance. And people will want to back their team as they try to make...

    US bid to poach State of Origin game from Victoria

    I'm with those who don't like the Origin idea but like the WCC part. Origin is Origin. It can survive a bit of stuffing around but not too much. While I'm all for the promotional aspects of holding the game down in Melbourne every now and then you've got to be careful not to over do it. On...

    Crowd Watch 2012

    Watching the replay of the Storm/Warriors game the crowd was really getting into it. Fantastic atmosphere, at least on telly. SFS was great as well.

    Twenty Seven New Coaches Graduate in Jamaica

    Excellent work by everyone. Jamaica will be a truly independent League nation soon. Let's hope they quickly start to see the benefits on the international stage. RLEF actually stands for 'northern hemisphere plus Africa'. Until a South American nation joins at which point it will mean...

    Chambers on song as Storm Looks to US

    Wow. Awesome news. Don't know if the game itself will be of benefit to the home team - they're going to spend a lot of time watching Billy run past or away from them - but the promotional opportunities and the ability to just hang out with other players should benefit the Tomahawks no end. It...

    Universal Music Canada and CRL Join Forces

    Wow, that's a massive company to get involved with League. Why hasn't there been more talk about this? Well done to the Canadians and whoever set this up. Very professional.

    New AMNRL team in CT

    Definitely. This forum needs its own Fight Club so the rest of us can get our North American League news without wading through everything else.
