| Simple really if people want to watch international drubbings then restrict the players to tight country guidlines.

| Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "Great post Shify. Willzay and Wildthing are just small time trolls who don’t want Rugby League to be played unless it’s within a 10 mile radius of Wakefield or Leigh. They seem to find a World Cup tournament terrifying and attempt to put it down at every opportunity.'"
You calling someone else a troll? That really is rich.

Are you suggesting that Sir Kevin is poor or just middle class?

| Back on topic:
if Julien Bousquet and Antoni Maria can get on top of Timothy Mannah and Alexander Twal, then William Barthau and Theodore Fages can weave their magic for the French outside backs.

| France were defeated by Mitchell Moses, Robert Farah and Michael Lichaa.
Yet had Morgan Escare, Anthony Gigot, Remi Casty, Gadwin Springer and Mickael Simon been playing for France the result would have been different.

| Leeds should play with players from Leeds
Hull should play with players from Hull
Etc etc.
These blokes playing WANT to represent the country they are playing for, otherwise they wouldn't! They love the sport and certainly have the passion for the international game. Unfortunately a lot of fans don't.
But I love it.

There were as many Englishmen as Irishmen in the Football World Cup in USA in 1994 and England didn’t even qualify. There were just a load of Cockneys and Scousers playing for Ireland but since they had an Irish Nan.
The last Football World Cup winners had three Turkish midfielders and two Poles in the squad.

Why?
If a kid was born in Iceland to one Tongan and one English parent and came to Britain as a toddler and became a rugby league player, in fact became the best RL player in the world, he couldn’t play for either Tonga, England or Great Britain and could never play international rugby league since Iceland don’t have a team? The best player in the world?
What a joke!
I take it you think all of Mo Farah’s medals should be stripped from Great Britain and given to Somalia?

| Well I’m watching the game back now and it’s 26 blokes running round in the same kit from a distance... that’s the only joke about this game, not any eligibility rules

| That Bastian of national passion, the RU 6 Nations had 25% of selected players not representing the country of their birth this year. Scotland had 18!! Wales 11!! Even England had 7!!! Don't see much about that in the media
