Too many bluddy Aussies in the Catalans thats the problem.

A team of SL-based antipodeans would not feel pashionate enough to be a threat IMO. Also the clubs would be wary of risking old injury prone Aussies like Morrison, Buderus and Sherwin in a meaningless one off game. Back to the drawing board methinks :)


I think it would provide a better contest than we saw on Friday though.

The key to this is generating a sense of pride forthe team you are playing for, i.e. a proud Yorkshire man or a proud Queenslander. Would a North v South, East v West create that?

At least the England SL XIII v Rest of The Word SL XIII would give more of an element of that.

Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

I wonder what the alchemy is that makes Origin so universally loved here and Roses so derided back in the UK?
Because Australians are backwards and jingoistic?

If England lost to a super league Anzac side it would realy damage the credibility of international rugby.
