Based on the evidence of last week's international you've got a better chance than France... just got to make sure you see off Scotland and Ireland!
Any word on where this Autumn's internationals will be? Hope at least one will be in Wrexham because I might be tempted to take a trip down there, seeing as England's games are slightly off the M62 corridor this winter...

Some superb results for Welsh RL there in the OP there, but I honestly wouldnt know where to start with that ridiculous statement Adrian.

| Forgive me for saying this but exactly how many of the team that beat Leeds were actually Welsh??
Apart from the fact Wrexham is in Wales and they wear red shirts with 3 feathers on them there honestly is not much of a link to the principality is there?

if you were actually interested in the topic you would have read the OP enough to answer your own question.

| Am I right in thinking that Wales will have at least two home games in the Euro Nations? In which case it'd make sense to have one game at Wrexham and one at Neath? Would be a huge boost for them to qualify for the Four Nations where I'd like to think they'd play at least one game at Swansea or Cardiff.

| Good to see Welsh RL progressing at all levels from junior to fully pro. Does anyne know what the junior and playing numbers are now compared to say 5 years ago? If that has increased substantially then the future is indeed very bright for Wales!

| Great to see the Welsh game making strides but lets not get carried away in terms of at international level.
We have done that with France.
France have circa 30 1/2 decent players to choose from for their international side.
Wales must have 3.
So I cant see Wales doing better than France unless it was filled with hertigate players.
Also I reckon Wales playing in the 4 nations would be significantly more embarrassing than the French.
Lets push for Tolouse in super league to bolster their playing numbers and once the Crusaders are predomianantly filled with Welsh players then possibly we can hope for a 4 Nations appearance.

I remember Wales giving us a scare in the 2000 RLWC!
But that was 10 years ago.
I agree, if they made the 4 nations now they wouldnt stand a chance of winning any games

why the fook do you need another team in france full of aussies
from what I've seen over the last 10 years we need more english teams to produce more english players
nice to see the welsh growing,but for gods sake let them grow in there own time
