I can't get passionate about the England thing in comparison to if it were Great Britain. I know it's essentially the same team but I would much rather see Great Britain win the Ashes than England win the world cup/four nations. Couldn't give a **** what the media think is more important it's what's more important to me that I care about.



That said I would still love us to win over there and would be out celebrating if we did.

Slight adjustment for me



2013 - UK World Cup

2014 - Test Series v NZ (Away)

2015 - Four Nations (Aus/NZ)

2016 - Test Series v Aust (Home)

2017 - World Cup in Aus/NZ

2018 - Test Series v NZ (Home)

2019 - Four Nations (UK)

2020 - Test Series v Aust (Away)

2021 - World Cup (UK)



World cup every four years with a four nations in the middle of each one.

We need the Ashes back asap IMO. That is the heartbeat of International RL, just like it is in cricket. England won the 20-20 world cup this year but hardly anyone cared. It's the ashes that people care about.

To be honest, I'd be happy with either idea Bilko.

I'm not all that fussed in all honesty. I think that is mainly because the RFL also aren't that bothered, and it gets very little attention.

I wouldn't. Much as I'd love England to win, I'm definitely "club before country". Not trying to justify it in any way, it's just the way I am.



If I had to choose between watching Wigan or England, I'd choose Wigan every time.

The problem with many 'club before country' people (and I'm not speaking about specific posters here) is that it is more club rather than country.

I think International Rugby League needs to be strong if the game is ever going to expand beyond it's traditonal strongholds

So long as Wigans contingent come home fit I'll be happy. Yes I do want England to win. But I'm realistic and therefore put my in interests first.



Infact, I'd rather Sam sat it out with his groin. Even if it is to the detriment of the national teams chances.

I'd of also liked Lockers, Joel and Fielden to have had longer winters than gone over there with about as much chance of winning the comp as Quins have the SL

I wish them 4 players mentioned hadnt have even gone!! Im praying for no injuries to any key players.

Yes, you can tell it's an honour for them to represent their country. Not many people get to do so and as the lads have said on many occasions, pulling on the white of England or the blue, white and red of GB is the stuff dreams are made of.

I think the RFL made a mistake in separating the GB into England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Lets be honest, the game is played professionally in England and one club in Wales.



Why go to those lengths and create 4 sides out of one, and in effect making 4 weaker sides play against the strong sides of Australia and NZ?



If RL ever expands to those 4 nations it seems stupid to have a Scottish and Irish side.



I loved the Test Series that the GB side played against the Aussies, but a team called England does not have the same kudos about it.
