It's disappointing to not see Best, Frizell, etc named in that Welsh squad. However, the real issue for Wales is that we're not doing enough to keep young lads in the sport. Celtic Crusaders exis

I can't imagine Charlie Staines gets near the squad as Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow will probably be the backup for whichever of Crichton/Suaalii doesn't get the fullback spot. Suaalii/May/Tago/Crichton/T

Hello everyone, 

In Germany, there will probably be no broadcaster showing the World Cup. 

The channel "Sport 1+" which broadcasts the NRL will not show the World Cup. 

Do you know if there is an international stream where you can watch the games? 

This would be a nice solution for rugby league fans in whose home countries you can't watch the World Cup. 

Maybe someone here knows something more about it?

According to this article, DAZN is streaming the World Cup in Germany.

My gut feeling is telling me two different things right now.

I feel that England are gonna get destroyed by Samoa in the first game. Their forward pack can definitely match England and their backline, while young, is definitely more talented.

On the other hand, Matt Parish is the Samoa coach, one of the most ignorant men in rugby league. It wouldn't shock me if it all ends in tears for Samoa.

I disagree I think early on the likes the Papali’i and Paulo will dominate the middle early on. But as the game goes on I think the fitness of the English players Radley, Thompson, Oledzki Etc will start to shine through and the tables will turn.

In terms of backlines they are both very talented but personally I think England’s Backs are quite a bit better mostly because of the experience and the world class spine they have.

Huge blow if Farnworth is indeed out. Percival seems to be carrying his injury as well.

Grim for England if those two fall by the wayside.

I’d wait for a lot more than ‘ I just read ‘ or ‘ Bert down the road told me ‘

That guy who said that has said, Payne haas is playing for Samoa, Taulagi is playing for Samoa and Nanai is playing for Samoa. Plus every few weeks makes up a new player who is apparently ruled for England. Tomorrow he’ll say Welsby’s out.

He has idea no idea what his talking about I wouldn’t listen to a things he says. It say’s absolutely nothing anywhere about Farnworth being out. Plus Farnworth was almost fit for round 25 and now he won’t available for a tournament 50 days after. The guys just waffling just ignore him.
