SOO eligibility should have nothing to do with International footy It should be based on which state you were born in - and If you werent born in NSW or QLD, you dont play origin. Simple International footy should be which country you, your parents or grandparents were born
OPINION The NRL’s representative eligibility rules are broken and the governing body will look at overhauling the outdated criteria in the offseason. Here’s how to fix them. READ STORY: smh.com.au/sport/nrl/the-…
Great read. They’re looking to cut costs. Meanwhile an NRL intervention would have most likely resulted in more (and smarter) investment. Letting the turkeys organise Christmas dinner

I’ve always said this is a major flaw with the 6-again rule You’re down by 2 points with a few minutes to go & the Opposition are ruled offside & you can’t get a penalty & kick for goal. You’re forced to play the ball
What is the next country rugby league needs to concentrate on to get to a competitive level worldwide?
Why are heritage players of Pacific nations celebrated and encouraged to take the international game forward, but heritage players of Celtic nations are frowned upon and seen as “not-genuine”??
Don’t forget this striking pair of Bristol’s

They fail to mention it’s being live streamed on the RFL YouTube channel.

Does anyone know of a film maker or scriptwriter? Bonus points if they are a Rugby League fan. I have an idea for a movie that has a Rugby league theme to it - a bit like Footy Legends or The final Winter.
NRL bosses Peter V’landys and Andrew Abdo have flown to the United States for TV broadcast deal talks with cashed-up American networks. The pair left Australia on Friday under a code of secrecy for talks at the global headquarters of DAZN, Amazon and Netflix as they chase a…

Can Sam Walker play for England this year (and/or next year’s World Cup)? He played a PM13 game against PNG 3 years ago
My proposed 10 team SL. I've axed Goole & ranked the remaining 24 teams based on current ladder positions ~ SL play top 6 finals ~ Champ & L1 play Super 8, middle 8 & bottom 8 Televised ~ 1 Champ MOTW + all Super 8 matches ~ Both Champ + L1 Magic weekends

Looks like no one at the Tigers v Dogs NRLW match Wouldn't it have been cheaper to play it at Concord?

Next blues coach? #StateofOrigin #SOO #StateOfOriginAu
Bad Move by SL clubs to increase overseas players in to their squads from 7 to 10 They should be doing the opposite and pushing for higher quotas of UK/Euro born players Each SL playing Squad should be at least 75% UK/Euro born That's at least 23 in a Squad of 30
If Rugby Union want him to break his contract early the NRL & Roosters should put up a “transfer fee”. If they request a $200k transfer fee then the roosters & NRL could split it $100k each. Not for salary cap use but to re-invest it in junior pathway programs.
Rugby Australia are 'desperate' to have Roosters breakout star Mark Nawaqanitawase back in Wallaby gold with a bidding war for the 24-year-old set to ensue 👀🧐 DETAILS 👉 bit.ly/4krfU2O
