The Guardian's rugby league correspondent Andy Wilson and the London Broncos head coach Tony Rea pick out five areas to enjoy at 2013's rugby league world cup.

Tony seems to be up for the event, let's hope he spots lots of (cheap) talent!

Hmm, a few have been snapped up already. We are in no position to make any binding offers. And PNG are going to have a team in one of the Queensland comps, making their players less likely to come this way.

Amazing how many players are being chased from World Cup teams and a few without contracts!

Few useful looking Fijians at Rochdale on Monday night Tony!

And that was just in the crowd

Some useful looking Scots also, Fisher, Hurst, Wilkes, Stringer .. oh, wait a minute....

Looking at who is off contract this year is encouraging if you need to build a team from scratch for a year in a hurry:

Catalans, Saints, Wakefield, and Wigan look particularly interesting.

I'm not sure how reliable some of that info is.

For example, it lists Scott Taylor as being off-contract in 2013. But a quick google suggests to me he signed a two year deal with Wigan last October when he moved from Hull KR.

Paul Sykes is listed as being off-contract with Wakey but again, it was in the news recently, he's signed with them until the end of 2014.

If you look at our list, Will Lovell said on twitter the other day that he had another year on his deal.

I've not been following it closely but are Thomas Bosc and Greg Mounis really out of contract? That's a bit worrying for Catalan fans if so.

From Wakeys point of view its all over the place. Lee Smith also signed a new deal, Tautai signed a two year deal when he joined in April, Cowling has joined Halifax and Motu Tony left the club well over a year ago and has been working at Hull FC for months! Safe to say I wouldn't trust it!

Damn.

I was quite hopeful with Dixon being our only contracted player.

Hey guys, I run Zero Tackle. Saw this thread popup in the stats. Thanks for the info on a few of the players, I've updated the site.

It's always been pretty much just a hobby so by no means is it a perfect resource. Being an Aussie, the NRL side is always going to be more accurate.

If you see any other errors/mistakes, would love to know about them!
