Apparently so Sanj. Also France play Scotland at Gilbert Brutus & Ireland in Ireland scheduled for the Autumn, dates to be confirmed.

why is there no european cup this year?, also coudnt england play france every year in pre season january time?

Isn't the European Cup held on years alternate to when the Four Nations is held in this country, to determine which home country joins England, Australia and New Zealand in the Four Nations? That was my understanding of the structure anyway.

i know what you mean but before the 4 nations was introduced dint we have a european cup every year i dont see why the tournement coudnt go ahead this year. france,scotland,ireland and england knights?

France/England Knights added to the list.

BEHOLD, my amazing predictive powers.

I don't think you needed to be mystic meg to predict that one John.

I wouldn't have had him in my Exiles team anyway. Catalans by 20.

going along to this one now I reckon. Roll up on the gate. I hope we get to see an entertaining game, should be plenty of off the cuff play from the Exiles.

should be a cracker

Disappointed by the Exiles. Where were the really high profile exiles - Idi Amin, Martin Bohrmann, Thaksin Shinwatra, Pervez Musharraf etc?

you forgot Charles de Gaulle and Omar Sharif.....

anyway just imagine what a half-decent Exiles team would have done to a p**s poor England outfit ?

They beat us 16-12. Keep up

Rangy second-row and cheeky half-back/hooker respectively.

just imagine the state of C de Gs nose after a few years of RL !!! ten times worse than Shaun Briscoe

Briscoe can smell round corners. FACT

my mother in law smells all the time !!!
