Of the 7's.
I just read a report where Steve Folkes has been quoted saying the Bulldogs will not be fielding any of their stars in the World 7's. My opinion is they should be kicked out of the 7's if they aren't going to take it seriously. Every other team is making a genuine attempt to win the tournament and thus risking most of their high profile players. The Dogs not coming to the party is simply bad sportsmanship.
The Dogs must go and an extra spot should be given to the qualifiers or just promote the USA. USA CEO David Nui is apparently very upset his team has been over looked for direct entry into the main draw. It's obvious the Bulldogs couldn't care less about the 7's so kick them out and give the spot to a team who wants to be there.
I also hope Folkes doesn't stop El Masri from skippering his nation in 2 weeks time.
All the other clubs are getting into the spirit of the event, most in the realisation that our game needs to develop internationally if we are to thrive this century. It may have been ok to field weakened teams back in the 90's when everyone was doing it, but now it is not on. The Dogs must be kicked out!
