PROUD TO BE A MEMBER OF http://www.rugbyleaguecares.org/ and http://www.walesrugbyleague.co.uk/article/8790/join-team-wales-for-2013

Predictions for the future -

Crusaders RL to get a franchise for 2012 onwards -WRONG

Widnes Vikings also to get a franchise - RIGHT

Crusaders RL to do the double over Widnes and finish five places ahead of them -WRONG

Widnes Vikings NOT to dominate rugby league in years to come! STILL TO COME

I promise to pay �10 to the charity of Bomb Jacks choice if Widnes Millionaires finish above the battling underdogs Crusaders RL. I OWE A TENNER!

Do you really need someone to answer that? 

Haha that's what I was thinking. Basically the women here aren't going to stand a chance for decades. The game here is lightyears behind where Australia is now and where they are going.

I don't think this will happen in 2018. The current plan for the National Women's League seems to be a 6-tem comp to run during the NRL Finals. It doesn't matter too much since the NSWRL will most likely continue it's 8-team comp from last year before the NRL comp (women's) starts. The NSWRL also ran a Nines comp over several weeks before their 13s comp started. Brisbane also had a Women's comp but I'm not sure how many teams.

This year we also had the mid year Test v. Kiwis and a Qld v NSW Residents match which included any PNG or Kiwi-eligible players who were playing in the relevant State comps, followed by a SOO match.

The link that Copa gave to another thread on this has a lot more opinion, including some very good reasons why there should NOT be a Women's comp as a direct mirror or attachment to the existing NRL. That might sound odd but, for example, why repeat the mistake of having only 1 team in Brisbane?

I can see the NRL Women's comp becoming a bit like the Women's soccer in the US with the best players from NZ, UK and Europe going over in the next 5-10 years. It doesn't take a huge TV deal and sponsorship to support wages etc for NRL clubs with infrastructures already in place.

In the UK we could do a Maurice Lindsay and sign up all the top Jillaroos players to play in the UK. That would cheese the Aussies off for a while - then they would probably produce more great players just to taunt us :sleep:
