I thought he had some NZ players in there also.
How many different countries would a rest of the world Union game have vs Australia?
Sth Africa maybe 1 or 2
NZ would be there
England
France and maybe Ireland.

Not much difference really.

 

[rugged]

I think they should have an Australia v the Rest of the World.

It's the one game that makes a lot of sense.

 

[screeny]

I don't. We don't have internationals as it is so when we put our resources, time, effort, and ask the players to play int'l football it should be Test or int'l football, not some pointless affair like this.

Everyone's moaning about player overuse as it is.....

 

[dimitri]

i agree


we dont have enough tests

why should we pour all our resources into an exhibition match

 

[rugged]

:idea:

CHARITY???

 

[Atticus Finch]

It's good to have ideas but I don't think there is the will among rugby league people to put something like that on, especially in the current climate of player burn-out.

It might work as a one-off charity thing, as rugged says, otherwise it's a no-goer.

I didn't read that bit about a series.

Thought they were talking about a tsunami aid thing.
