| Quote: Bent&Bongser "At one point the England football team had a policy of not picking players that were banned domestically - but that applied only in friendlies and is now discontinued.
IMG will sort it out in time. In the interim, said IMG is hardly covering itself in glory with the marketing of the World Cup. Even if they were not brought in for it, this would be a chance to market themselves - and bring more money into the game. Can't see anything outside the RL media and forums - and therefore neither can the non RL watching public! Was bombarded by billboards and bus ads long before cricket's "The Hundred"! They went the full, errrm, 22 yards.'"
Personally never saw any hundred stuff. I guess with a lot of advertising you see what you are open to.

| Quote: UllFC "Looks like a European Nations cup is on the cards for 2023. Initial thoughts are im in favour if Wales, Ireland, Scotland and France play at home. And if England concentrate on an 25 and under squad to build for the next WC.'"
Why ?
If we are going to do it, do it right.
People too bothered about results or empty seats in this sport. We never let any of our seeds grow.
Lets not devalue a competition by not sending our best squad. Im all for international growth but I want more then the same old Aus or NZ series.

| Quote: Jason65 "It was good to watch.
Enjoyed the tournament,wheel chair was a relevation and a brilliant showcase,the lads after the final only talked Rugbyleague up and were very very passionate about the game.
Did RL get some things wrong,of course they did,its RL after all.Will they improve you would think so.
Bring on the new season and more internationals please.'"
THe Wheelchair sport benefited more from the tournament, I personally had dismissed it through ignorance prior to the World Cup but once I watched one of the earlier games I was hooked. My very earlier vision of the sport was a wheelchair bashathon but the skill and team work was a joy to watch, and having Amor doing the commentary explaining the rules was a bonus.

| running all 4 comps together was the big success from this tourney, the whole project was average when it came to publicity and attendance, but the wheelchair and PDSL has been a big success, let us hope they build on that for 3 years time.

I know the French will be after revenge in the Wheel chair comp,that would be something to look forward to that is for certain.

Hosting in places that have an arena right in the centre for the Wheelchair and a good stadium walkable from the centre for the Mens and Womens games is the way forward. Newcastle ticks this box, Liverpool will when Everton's new stadium opens etc. Gives the whole weekend more of a festival feel rather than people just going to one game then driving home.
