Channel 9 will be doing a delayed broadcast after the Mens Test. I'd check the programme schedule for whichever channel carries your Thursday and Friday night games.

The 2013 World Cup wasn't just a big result for the Jillaroos, it was a pivotal moment for the women's game. 

Women's rugby league has exploded in popularity ever since with the NRL Auckland Nines, new pathways created and more regular exposure bringing the evolution of the game into the mainstream.

At least we can be sure the buns and the jokes will be good.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Do you mean the U14s and U16s? It hasn't started yet. Probably next year. OZ juniors play mixed gender teams up to U12s. Most of the girls probably move on to Touch until they're 17 then the Sydney Women's League

Canberra is also making progress in women's rugby league. They are developing both contact and non-contact high level treams linked to established senior clubs.

Just started watching this, thanks to Across The Tasman, and it is a blood'n'thunder encounter so far.

 

Ruan Sims looks like she's bulked up a bit, not that she wasn't a very physical player already.

The physicality of that game was incredible. It was a brilliant advert for the womens game.

This is the first time I've seen them play a full-length, 13-a-side test, but they just produce a great spectacle again and again, whether it is in Nines or regular RL.

Just finished watching - a cracking encounter from kickoff to hooter.

The skills and physicality at this stage of the women's game is amazing - can't wait to see Wales and France and England join in but as ever the southern have raced ahead. Well done to the ferns

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!

Fisa and Apps (NZ & Aus respectively) put in eye-catching performances, but it's hard to find a player who didn't contribute something great to the test match.

I love watching these games..I hope one day the English womens team can compete

Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.
