Foreign Competitions

[Ari Gold]

Italy has had a domestic competition running for the last few years, but this year it was cancelled for some reason. The only positive coming out of Italy is that there juniors are getting some decent game time, last year they toured Scotland and this year two secondary schools in padova played a mini-series between each other. They are also sending a team to the U/16 world cup, but that will mostly consist of players from Australia.....

How many times do I have to post this here . Samoa doesn't have a domestic comp and the same goes for America Samoa .

How many times must I put you in your place? Samoa STOPPED thier comp for a period of time before RECOMMENCING with an 8 team competition following a grant. If you read my post CORRECTLY, you'll see I never said American Samoa have a comp

Jeez you're a thick bastard.

1. NRL
2. ESL
3. France (going on recent results)
4. QLD Cup/NSW Premier League (they're hard to split)
5. Northern Ford (England)
6. Barter Card (NZ)
7. Jim Beam Cup
8. Mixwell Cup (QLD)
9. Nat 2 (ENG)
10. Russia
11. Lebanon
12. AMNRL

Isnt the northern ford comp professional?? Bartercard Cup is just the same as or maybe be a little bit behind the QLD cup and Jim Beam cup....Not much difference between them at all....

After the NZ bartercard Cup team got beaten by a Jim Beam rep side perhaps JB is stronger than BC?

I wouldn't think Lebanon rates anywhere on this list. They only have a few uni teams don't they of players who are completely new to the sport. AMNRL has some great players in the comp.

lebanese espoirs got flogged by Morocco select and Oxford uni sides didn't they?
