Expression of Interest - International RL Advocates : SEQ / Nthn NSW Group

Hi Guys,

Mentioned this idea in passing a while back and received a couple of supportive comments so thought I’d explore it further.

Only an expression of interest at this stage as I haven’t really had too much time to consider what the group could / would do. Certainly open to all ideas !

Was lucky enough to catch up with Daniel Andruczyk the owner / operator of the Rugby League International Scores website in January 2013 and spent a few hours talking all things International RL over a cold beer ( and Roast of the day ! ) at Easts Leagues Club here in Brisbane.

Enjoyed the opportunity to talk subject matters with a like-minded person – rather than receive the usual blank stares accompanied by the ‘nah…. They don’t play footy in ( insert emerging country of choice)….you’re kidding’.

(Unfortunately Dan and RLIS seems to have gone off the boil since July of this year. I know he has a fairly demanding job as a physicist and had a family bereavement so perhaps he’s just taking a wee break)


Also met a few enthusiasts over in England during last year’s RLWC. They may even be forumers on here !

Disappointingly I lost some of their contact details as well. Hangovers and hurried packing to catch a train or ferry do not help with keeping scraps of paper you have collected !!!


Anyhow, this is a case of nothing ventured, nothing gained. A chance to swap the keyboard and screen for a coldie ( or coffee) and catch-up !


Heading into the hectic yuletide season now, but perhaps early months of 2015 could be a starting point.


Got a feeling the Latin Heat ( South / Central American team) are lining up against The Philippines again in late January. Either on the Gold Coast again or Brisbane. ( The man behind LH is a well-known RL journo in QLD who I met over in the UK enroute to the USA V Roos QF game)


Over to you folks !

Maybe......... ... then again the possible Sunshine Coast / Toowoomba participants may have something to say about that !!!

That said a few beers at the Greenmount or Rainbow SLSC wouldn't be too hard to handle !


Will see how things pan out after the hundred or so people register their interest :D:D:D

Few others that i know are in the catchment area - but perhaps not keen or not yet seen this thread.
