Looking forward to the whole setup for this historic tour. Who will be on the coaching staff, who is making the kit, who will sponsor the tour and the GB team, which tv companies are bidding for the tour etc. All very exciting.

Do you mean in terms of us playing as Great Britain, or that we might not tour at all? Surely we've got to go out there now that it's got to this stage? What are we going to do instead if we don't go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was announced when they got the England gig. I don’t really do replica shirts but if it’s a good’un I may have to part with fifty notes.

The the only solid fact I have seen about GB is that Bennett will coach them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of Aus/NZ media saying the same as well regarding NZ Tests for end of year https://www.nzherald.co.nz/league/news/article.cfm?c_id=79&objectid=12209028 It's understood the Lions will play two tests against the Kiwis, as well as clashes with Tonga, Fiji and Samoa. The British side will also stop in Papua New Guinea on their way home. The schedule means that Tonga, Samoa, Papua New Guinea and Fiji will be guaranteed at least two tests each in 2019, a vital boost for each of those countries especially with the recent progress of Tonga and Papua New Guinea.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Assuming the article is correct, it does make you wonder if the Fiji and Samoa games have been shoehorned back into the 'tour' because of the union world league mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it before, but even Lions naysayers could probably have been won round had this been announced 2 years in advance, with a great schedule that really worked for touring fans, with professional companies providing tour packages. As things stand, even those looking forward to this are now peed off and I really can't see more than a few handfuls being able to bother with this.

deluded pom? Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 So it's now 10.40 am. Has there been an official announcement or are the RFL leaving it as late as possible just like the alleged tour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost crayfish Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 On it's own, GB headlining a big event at Eden Park makes the tour seem almost worthwhile. That will be a huge occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
