| Quote middleman="middleman"How long has it been since the NRL / RFL staged a meaningful exhibition match in the US ?
RFL - 1989- in Milwaukee
NRL ?
I don't mean a ' run out ' in Jacksonville during pre season training , but a full blown challenge match .
American Football seems to be on at Wembley every other week , and the other code have announced a premiership Rugby game in New York in the lead up to St Patrick's day .
they may be appreciation of the skills of RL players . and their ability to play other 'sports' RU - NFL - WWE- Boxing , but it will mean nothing unless there is more opportunity to growth the sport overseas. or tv deals to make the sport visible.'"
A State of Origin match was played in LA in 1987 |

An extra one though, not a real one.

You can guarantee that if he fails completely he'll be a Rugby League player with Union or just Rugby never appearing in the articles

Hayne going to the NFL is good for Union as they've signed up for 3 NFL matches at Twickenham and from what someone posted on here the other day maybe assisting Union with a US league? Once again the commercial nous of Union's leadership shows.

Albeit since the NFL season runs at the same time as the RU season then I fail to see the benefit (aside from RFU income).

If I'm the USARL, the first thing I'm doing is seeking an injuction to prevent them using "rugby football league" in their name.

The implications are far reaching. What these 3 NFL sell out games do is free up the England union team to play test matches in the north of England without having to worry about servicing the Twickenham debt. |

Easy to have "commercial nous" in this situation. You've got a stadium that needs filling and someone who wants a stadium to fill. |

It'll say a lot about the RFUs attitude to the north when they announce which England games they'll take there. Is it likely to be prestigious Six Nations matches, or S Africa, New Zealand and Australia; or lower tier games perhaps such as Argentina, Uruguay and Japan etc ? |

Wouldn't surprise me if they played a 6 nations game in the north, especially in years when they've 3 home ones. A s. hemisphere giant, equally possible. I think they've an eye on making inroads. |
