I foresee a hammering, but this should be a good warm-up for the RLWC

Definitely a good warm-up for them. With a few 'overseas' based players, I'm sure they'll be as competitive as Scotland and Ireland were in the recent European Cup since they had plenty of homegrown talent playing for them as well.

I love the idea of these tours by the smaller nations. Such a shame the Samoa tour was cancelled. The ARL/RFL should try and fund 2/3 tours a year between them for the smaller nations. I know finances are tight but the more games the smaller nations play, the better they'll become and it also provides international RL with a proper international calendar.

Excellent news, maybe we can get the US to spell finalising in English.

No, seriously, keep us up to date, I would love to be there for the France v USA match, history in the making.

Never gonna happen

Maybe the RFL/RLEF though

Maybe but I think it's a better option than playing Japan and understrength Tongana and Cook islands teams that would end up giving them no warm up at all.

I think if they do the trip to France then the Italians may be interested in Playing the USA as well?
