The RLWC was contested between Great Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand. PNG were added as the fifth team in 89 and 93. We didn't get to the current format of having more than five teams until 1995. It would be more appealing if it was limited to Australia, New Zealand, England, PNG, France, Samoa, Tonga and Fiji with stricter eligibility rules.
No it ain't. It's well down on the EPL in participation, attendance and television viewership.
It's sad how far our game has fallen in England and France. I don’t see us recovering there any time soon, either.
lol who told you that crap, its not in same ball park.
yeah, I would just quit with this argument - you or your friend got NFI
Being top dog on poor islands of 100k people isn’t a great target!

You have a partially correct name for what I'd call you in relation to this.
Is there anything you don't get wrong?
On July 8, 2015, the NFL and Tottenham Hotspur F.C. announced they had reached a 10-year deal to host at least two London Games a year at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium from its opening year in 2019.[26] Additionally, on October 7, 2015, the league announced that a resolution had been passed to schedule international games at additional locations to London until 2025.[12] Subsequently, on October 22, 2015, it was confirmed that at least two games per season would remain at Wembley through at least 2020 and that the Jacksonville Jaguars will continue to play a home game there annually throughout the agreement.[27] Another stadium deal was confirmed on November 3, 2015, when the league announced they had reached an agreement with England's Rugby Football Union to host regular season games at Twickenham Stadium from 2016 onwards, with a minimum of three, and as many as five games to be held over the initial agreement period of three years.[28]
NFL International Series - Wikipedia
en.m.wikipedia.org
As of the 2014 International Series, 9 out of 10 tickets for the games were bought by people who lived within three hours' travel of London, with 33,000 people choosing to buy a package ticket for all three games.[25] That number had risen to 40,000 repeat customers for the four-game package in 2017.[50]
The league has been encouraged by the fact that the International Series games were still attracting over 80,000 fans for a game like the Detroit Lions versus the Kansas City Chiefs on October 31, 2015, the teams which had the 24th and 31st best records in the NFL at game time, leading The Telegraph to observe that Middlesbrough vs Brentford would be the equivalent English soccer fixture on the day (based on their positions in the Football League Championship).[53]
