| Quote: headhunter "Nobody has 'banged on' about anything apart from you and the other union trolls. Nobody has claimed some sort of high level international conspiracy involving the IRB, what has been claimed is that the RU organisation in Morocco has been conspiring with their government to actively disrupt and ban RL, for which there is significant evidence. '"
If you read Gansons Opticians post on page 2 of this thread you will see he/she mentions 1895, so i'm guessing he/she is a union troll? And I'm not sure what you mean by significant evidence, evidence means something slightly more tangible than the hearsay and comments of a student and the tour manager. It may or may not be true but at best its weak unsubstantiated evidence that would get laughed out of court.

| All of us on here agree, I think, that Rugby League is a fantastic sport to watch and (for those who are able) to play. So anything that helps more people avail of the game globally is a good thing. Amazing to hear that there are now four teams up and running in Morocco and that the problems mentioned on here appear to be well on course for resolution.

Pleased to read and helps recall seeing and being amazed by seeing Hussein M 'Barki's debut for Fulham in the inaugural game at Craven Cottage.

Apologies. I do hope the assistance now being given at EU Parliament level will help those people in Morocco who want to play Rugby League. I wonder if Hussein M'Barki is still around and might be able and willing to give support as an 'elder statesman' of Moroccan Rugby League?

I think Hussein was involved a decade or so ago but there was no money available from the International board to fund the game there.

| Hi guys. I have heard some rumours about Moroccan RL. Can you tell my why things are so difficult over there?
"because of RU they blocked us with our governe,ent , so the moroccan misiter of sport told play rl and rl in same federation and this is the last thing we will do it , they are just a stillers pff sorry mate"
Make what you will of that. Just asked the question to Rabathos Rugby League Morocco on Facebook and that is what they replied. It sounds like the sports minister has told them RL has to be administered by their RU and they aren't having it. Give them a follow and show/give them a little support.

| Either their government is very very dumb and can't figure out the difference between two sports with a similar name or union is once again showing its true colours and influencing decisions to the detriment of RL. If your Gutters you'll believe a third scenario that it is somehow RL's fault, the rest of the sensible world can see it is far more likely to be Union wkers sabotaging.
