With the tournament (apparently) going ahead in Russia in a few short months has the ARL decided what kind of team they will be sending? There is no Australian U16 side and there never has been and time is running out if they hope to get one together. The first ever Country U16s was selected this week but I don't know of any other rep sides in that age group. With no NSW/Qld 16s as part of a major pathway to Aussie selection how will they pick a side. The Country 16s are supposed to play New Zealand in September which also begs the question will NZ be sending a team? If they're here in September when are they heading to Moscow? I have some major concerns about this tournament. England have apparently pulled out and Wales may not be sending a team. With only 8 teams total it's a bit of a worry.
