yeah but he's much older. 37, and now the head coach at Workington.Don't forget Leon Pryce
Great achievement for them to get there but they are cannon fodder! RL is an unforgiving game and these amateurs up against professionals are going to get hammered. Just hope they dont die of hypothermia in the process!
Considering that their squad are pretty much all English, I think they would have aclimatised by now - lol

This Jamaican team will cop the same treatment from the keyboards warriors as Lebanon did

I think Jamaica have done it the other way round. Built a domestic scene over the last dozen ? years, using mostly domestic players for internationals. This RLWC qualifier has the most and, I’m guessing, highest quality heritage players they have used.It's a fair critisism. I don't mind nations starting off this way but you would like to see them progress the way Ireland, USA, Wales are going and actually use citizens of that country as the domestic scene improves.

Either way, using domestic or heritage players, they aren't going to win it, so why not use more domestic players ?
It will promote the game better in Jamaica and gives the RLWC more credibility.
