The equivalent of an Aussie pub team beating a Top 8 Super League club!
Let's hope this isn't a pointer to further embarrassments during the RLWC itself.

France were pants in the last World Cup in 2008 as well... finished last! Every team with a high contingent of SL-based players got belted back then. Only Ireland gave a reasonable account of themselves.
I'm rather hoping home advantage will swing things in favour of the SL-based players against the NRL-based ones this time around. We shall see.

Not like the USA would ever challenge a truly decent RL side, is it?

Lol, I can't believe people are using a pre-WC experimental warm up match to get a dig in about Super League ... this forum never fails to amaze...

Surely strong competition between teams is a good thing for a WC?!

I would say the truth lies somewhere between the USA being better than people have given them credit for and France, without the direction of experienced players like I Hendo and Scott D, which the players have at club level, are not as good as people on MB's give them credit for.

If America have success it's great for the game, regardless of how many Aussies are in the team. It will never happen but the best thing that could happen is that USA win the World Cup, then it might finally get a bit of publicity over there. Besides, 8 in a squad of 23 is better than most countries in this World Cup.
Only on RLFans could a win for an emerging nation (and not just any emerging nation, the worlds economy) be seen as a bad thing.

It depends how you see it
Is it improvement by the USA ( primarily the US based players, did they all play? ) ?
Or is it France not improving how we all hoped they would after the introduction of the Catalans to SL?
If it is the latter then it is surely not good news for International RL development
But dont let that get in the way of making your mind up that some posters are being overly critical before you engage your brains as to what is being stated

People who didn't watch it,pass their 'expert' comment - standard for this site.
Why not applaud America,rather than be critical of France - unless you have a preconceived agenda ofcourse.

| If this result had occured in the other sport  it would be heralded as a great result for the progress of the USA. |
