  1. they could have used darlingtons stadium just down the road that would have made more sense
  2. agree on France and the easiest to fix. missing link is a two game annual series with england and perhaps a couple of fixtures with lebanon, scotland, wales or Ireland. seems obvious. you see the french matches written off every year due to blow outs way lower than what union doesn't blink an eye at
  3. i was there. it was a big event. my main point is union fans dont care about blow outs and will turn up. main reason is the international game is their pinnacle and they have built that dna. i know that the lions are looking at playing their on their way to the next tour down under. so it can't have been that bad.
  4. France will get better everyone needs to remember most teams havent played for ages. so all the under cooked teams will be much better by the quarters, especially Samoa and Fiji
  5. me and 4 mates from Yarm are going and paid the £25. I suspect we will be able to move to nicer seats. to me 25 and a game of international footy in a big ground is great value no matter how many people turn up
  6. US played NZ last year got beat by 130 and had 50k there and cheapest ticket was $50-150
  7. I was in Washington DC last year when the All Blacks played USA and beat them by 130 on front of 50k+. no one worried about the score. USA union plays regular annual fixtures & loads of prep. Lebanon havent played a similar game since the last WC and only got beat by 22 points and would have been way less if Manu hadn't had a stormer. The top 8 - 10 teams should be playing 3 or 4 games a year every year. The next layer down should also be playing tests and maybe with lower level local teams, but long and short we need to invest in this. Currently, and I love the tournament, a two state competition is our highest level of the game and it stifles everything else. The game has so much potential but it needs investment for a generation. Not all money but mostly conviction.
  8. Nice story about Irish kangaroos https://www.rte.ie/sport/rugby/2022/1012/1328799-irish-kangaroos-sprung-rugby-league-into-life-in-oz/
  9. me and 4 mates who have never been to a RL match are going
  10. doncaster sales look slow for all 3 games. england played france a few years ago and the crowd was good. its not a big stadium. wonder why its so slow?
  11. Been a lot of positive comments last few weeks. I think a big crowd at St James and an England result will have a big affect on attendances after that. Id heard St James, emirates and final are selling well. anyone got any more intel?

The Rugby League World Cup is one of the longest running World Cup tournaments in world sport. The Rugby League World Cup was first raised by the Fédération Française de Rugby à XIII (FFRXIII) in the 1930s, however it took until 1953 for the rest of the then International Rugby League Board (IRLB) to accept the proposal. Taking place in 1954, the World Cup celebrated the 20th anniversary of France as a Rugby League nation, and featured four nations, Australia, New Zealand, France and Great Britain. In 2008 the Great Britain international team separated into Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales. Since then the Scotland Rugby League has gone to gain a well-respected international pedigree, being ranked 15th in the world and 4th in Europe. The team won the Rugby League European Championship in 2014. The sponsorship is designed to widen the awareness of the HANetf brand, being the first time the company will feature on terrestrial and satellite television in the UK and globally. As part of the sponsorship HANetf are running events with the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment (CISI) around the key dates of the Scotland matches, with the first being held in Edinburgh. One of the founders of HANetf has a long history in rugby league. Hector McNeil founded London-based professional team London Skolars and helped set up Scotland Rugby League in the 1990s. More recently, alongside his wife Sara Giwa-McNeil, he helped found Ghana Rugby League. HANetf also runs the largest ETF event in Europe, named Capital Challenge, that also incorporates Rugby League. Following a morning of ETF presentations and discussions, over 1000 attendees attend a Rugby League hosted at the grounds of the historical Honourable Artillery Company in the heart of the City of London. The event is run in partnership with the Chartered Institute for Securities Institute (CISI). The event has established itself as the best attended ETF event in Europe and is in its 17th year. Hector McNeil, co-CEO and co-Founder of HANetf comments: “I’m thrilled HANetf are to sponsor Scotland Rugby League for the upcoming Rugby League World Cup. The Rugby League World Cup is the pinnacle event in international Rugby League and one of the World’s largest sporting tournaments. Like no other form of the game, players compete with the pride of their nation at the heart of every performance. Since the international Great Britain team separated into the four nations in 2008, Scotland’s international team have gone from strength to strength. It is also great that we will be sponsoring that Scotland’s Wheelchair Rugby League team. I believe Wheelchair Rugby League is incredibly exciting to watch and is among the most inclusive sport of all, with non-disabled people welcome to compete, as well as both men and women being able to play in the same team. As a proud Scotsman I am very excited to see how Scotland progress. I don’t see why the team can’t make it to at least the quarter-finals and beyond. It’s also incredibly exciting to think that the world will be able to see the HANetf brand on the front of the shirts in a match against the current champions and giants of Rugby League, Australia.” Victoria Hogg, Chair of Scotland Rugby League “Hector McNeil was instrumental in the founding of Scotland Rugby League and we are delighted to be working with HANetf at this very exciting time for Scotland Rugby League. Both our Men’s and Wheelchair squads are looking forward to taking part in this great event, which sees the Wheelchair World Cup being run alongside the Men’s competition for the first time ever. Coverage of the sport via terrestrial and satellite television will showcase our great sport both here in the United Kingdom and globally and we are proud to be part of both World Cup competitions.”

  14. interesting thing for Skolars is the broncos ripping out Skolars spine on and off the field let the door open to many of a very special Under 16s and A team squad from 3 or 4 years ago. also Joe did whats been missing last few years by looking at the London amateur game and unearthing some gems. then when it didnt work out for Coleman at Broncos many of the Skolars developed players, the better ones on and off the field came back. also into a much tighter group. hats off to them all.
  15. skolars. nearly all their players came through theirs or the London RL system
  16. Jarred Bassett Skolars fullback is some player. think he scored another 3 or 4 tries yesterday. top player.
  17. not sure too many teams will be scared of that certainly not Ams, NZ or Tonga
  18. if amateur teams wanted to join the pro ranks they would apply now. they dont want to so this doesnt work. last team to apply was London Skolars who played for 4 years in the NCL
