Whilst the product in the NRL is of a better standard (there's a whole host of reasons for this) I wouldn't hold the NRL/Aussie RL up as some kind of beacon for the game, they are terribly insular and don't look past the State of Origin competition, look how they treat the international game, the think it's below them. |

Whilst we’ve obviously been not good enough this season, I think that shows the drawbacks of the current system.
In a 12 team league I don’t think the 9th places team should be in danger of relegation. |

I think they should strip them of the preceding season's points as it was obviously an aberration. |

Sits back and waits for head biting off ![]()
The NRL clubs are spread far and wide, clubs will fly out to games several times a year when travelling between Auckland, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane and Townsville. None of those journeys are a short drive like the majority of m62 clubs we have.
In fact the NRL was originally a Sydney league, so North Queensland, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and New Zealand Warriors are all expansion clubs. The PNG Hunters also play in the Queensland Cup and a Fiji based team are set to be added to the New South Wales Cup.
Perhaps try watching this weeks RugbyAM as the episode is based in the city of Toronto to see what they have to offer. It’s on tonight at 5pm and repeated at various times.

Taken from Wikipedia
New Zealand is part of the microcontinent named Zealandia, therefore, strictly speaking it is not part of the seven continents.
While New Zealand is near the continent of Australia, it is not part of it.
Seriously though I doubt they would with Toronto or Jacksonville, however if rugby league became super popular in South Africa I could see a club being excepted. |

Until someone beats them in a game that matters why should the Aussies take international rugby seriously. The biggest games in RL are clubs games - international RL is second rate. |

New Zealand have won both the World Cup and Four Nations. Interesting stat ahead of the much anticipated test next month, Australia have never beaten Tonga. |

We can lose by 30 points and still be above Toronto

Over the past 10 years what is the win/loss ratio v New Zealand? How long isit since we actually beat Australia - I rest my case. |
