It’s pathetic but inevitable. Funny how footballers, the Oz and NZ RU teams can come here but the precious little darlings from the Australian RL circus won’t.

And that will increase interest as well

Quote: kobashi "I would love to see it happen but not when there will be no Australia. Then the fact that the NRL will not release players so NZ and Tonga for example will bring over weak sides.

It's gonna be a world cup where England walk away with the world cup with no genuine contest. This will be an absolute farce and I am shocked the RFL are still going along with this.

Also how will England react when they are told the international players who play in the NRL cannot play.'"

The Aussie won't turn up next year either and neither will the Kiwis as the Kiwis do what the Aussies tell them to do.

Well, history has shown that the Aussies have turned up overseas 31 times over the past 10 years, but UK teams have turned up 20 times.

Of course in 2000 NZ didn't turn up.

The only thing between NZ RL and extinction is a shed load of volunteers and the NRL.........same sort of thing with English Rugby League....SKY tell them to jump and they ask "how high" c020.gif

Quote: Zoo Zoo Boom "Whilst ever we continually get beat at the international level in RL - we haven't beat the Aussies in series or WC since 1972 - yes 1972 - the interest will always be low. Look at the attendances for test with NZ we struggle to get 25k.

I came to Aus.to live in1968 and saw the reaction here to that 1972 WC result which in the final was a 10-10 score after extra time. GB were awarded the WC as they were the only team to win 3 out of 3 games in the matches played. The Aus. press and pundits were spitting chips because of a disallowed try by Graeme Langlands with one headline saying he was denied the greatest try ever scored! Not helping their mood also was the result of the 1970 Ashes series in Aus.which GB won 2-1. which meant that Aus. had failed to beat GB in 4 consecutive matches.

The French referee took a real hammering and also the French RL public were not too interested in a final which didn't feature France with a crowd of just over 4000 attending in Lyon.
