| 1). In the Olympics
2). Fast entertaining game
3). Huge international profile
4). Great social event
So why not a a couple of League teams have a crack at some of the big international tournaments like Dubai or Hong Kong? I know they have in the past.
It could be huge publicity and could help lift the profile of league?
On the other hand it might just be a bad idea....

Nicky Royle..
Probably the fastest bloke i've seen play rugby in recent years..he was bloody gash as a rugby player though, dunno how he's got a gig there, kick and chase all the time maybe?
I was sitting side on when he went up the wing for Widnes to score that try against Warrington 04ish? ..I thought it was a motor car!

Thats exactly my point. Win it. Loads of publicity instead of the 'league is better than Union whining.
(For the record, of course League is the better game, I wont use the Laurie Daley quote, but its spot on)

| An England RL team could easily win the Olympics IMO.
Richards
Hall
Pryce
O'loughlin
Atkins
They would be quality at 7's IMO.

I know we have 2 less players on the pitch than RU but that is going a bit too far

| Ok guys yes I picked 5, I didn't say that would be the team they were just players who came into my head
Richards would qualify as it is for GB.
Add Briscoe and Fox to the list then

He is a great athlete, one of the best in super league. He is rapid, fit, good ball skills, can kick, good defence.
