Fans can take advantage of dedicated team-specific supporter sections, with a flag included in the ticket purchase.

Pricing is reasonable and well done on creating fans zones

"Supporters can attend Friday's matches from $30 for adults and $80 for families, while tickets are available for Saturday's games, including the finals, from $49 (adults) and $135 (families).

The RLIF needs to take ownership of the Nines though as a official form of rugby league. There are various little tournaments such as Rotterdamn and US, Auckland Nines etc. The NRL have taken ownership of the World Nines by introducing their own rule changes presumably without RLIF permission? The IRB own the 7s curcuit and would never allow rule changes by the ARU when the tournament is played in Oz. The RLIF needs to do the same..

HaHaHa, RLIF control the game? Please do me a favour.

Lol.
They did the same thing for the World Cup in 2017.

I worked the Sydney games.

We ended up giving away hundreds of England, Lebanon and Australian flags.

Hence strongest ‘possible’ not strongest ‘likely’

Both have Welsh heritage thus making them eligible, as we know in rugby league players can chop and change allegiance at the drop of a hat - though I highly doubt either will be in red come October.

Not a great reflection on the Hunters is it?
Well, they did have a bad season yes. But isn't the point also that PNG Hunter players move on, and join other teams? There is a few over in England and other QLD Cup sides. Just increases the amount of PNG players at that level.

The hunters will come good again. They have the numbers to build another strong team.

Still think they need to be competing in the u18&u20 competitions though.
