Interesting. Is there a specific punishment for this or is it all vague and bullty like the Challenge Cup used to be before Hull did the same thing and didn't get kicked out?

Yeah, I know it is timing - but they should still have the flexibility to admit teams at relatively short notice - how hard can that be and really whats the harm?
The International Board don't seem afraid of 90 point one-side contests as we have had 2 in the last week! |

Yes it will be interesting to see what the response is. Its very unlikely to have swayed the end result which might go in their favour, except if the competition is decided on points difference of course.
I am sure it was just an innocent mistake from one of the inexperienced nations. |

Given that the RLIF allow players to change nationality on a whim I would be very surprised if they do anything.

rob's right. The Aussies set the precedent by wrongly allowing Uate to switch from Fiji after he'd already played for Fiji in a WC cycle i.e. 2009-2013. Paulo is the same. It will be swept under the RLIF carpet which must be almost touching the ceiling by now.

They do seem to be afriad when it comes to a world cup though with sticking the top four ranked teams in the same group so you would not get the big one sided scores. |

Jamaica beat South Africa 20-6 in Philadelphia tonight. By all accounts it was a very scrappy in the rain. The Jamaican victory sets up an all or nothing final game against the USA Tomahawks on Sunday.
The winner of that one earns the Atlantic Zone seed for the 2013 Rugby League World Cup to be co-hosted by England and Wales. The Atlantic Zone representative will go into Pool D with Wales and Cook Islands.

At least it wasn't a whoopin for the Rhino's. I really hope they become more competitive, i think RL really needs a strong SA in international RL.
