2026 Rugby League World Cup fixtures - October/November

[upthetigers]

Carrigan to me has always been a bit over hyped, has a Sharon woods vibe to him. Excellent stat padder

I’ve got no doubt he gets picked for rep teams due to reputation but watch him struggle big time with no Haas carrying him in that Brisbane pack

Kevvie has his favourites, based on form this year there is no way Carrigan should have been picked

Aussies (1st in their pool) will play the loser of tonights Tonga vs Samoa (2nd in other pools).

Was thinking the same.

I'm invited to go also.

Finally a good game.

Seeing as we have Latu and Frizzel in for the Tongans I'll cheer for them

And more importantly Jerome is in the opposition side

My understanding is that the Kiwis will face the winner of the combined Pools of B & C.

And the kangaroos will face the runner-up from the same cross-pool of B and C.

Which is dependent on the final placement of teams like Samoa, England, and Tonga, who are still in contention for a top two finish.

And if Tonga wins then it's highly likely that England are eliminated.

Aus women crack a ton with 14 minutes to go

Games like this need a mercy rule

Just said the same thing to my wife. Commentators egging them on to and now celebrating them on breaking a record winning margin is frankly embarrassing.

I believe the tiebreaker is based on head to head matches so England are already boned.

124-6 How does that promote the game or encourage young players overseas to want to play? Nobody wants to get flogged by those margins.

 

[gallagher]

Twally ever scored for the lebs?

In isolation your right. However if your a girl in Wales thinking of playing League that moment Wales scored & the celebration spoke volumes. The old saying “you can’t be what you can’t see”. Trust me, my wife (Tongan) & I watched Tonga play back in the day in front of family & friends getting flogged & now they are a huge drawcard. It’s only the start for Wales & who knows what can happen.

The problem like many countries in the Northern Hemisphere is that rugby league is the 2nd or 3rd football option behind soccer and rugby union

Your right. And I don’t know the solution but we need to work with them for the good of the game.
