    New powerhouse emerges in Europe

    I think the majority of the GB side this year were from traditional "BARFL" clubs, rather from ARUK league clubs. Although there were a couple of guys there from ARUK's welsh league I think. I don't quite get the GB side I have to say. It has a weird selection strategy. There weren't really...

    Australia v ROTW

    I'm not sure you'd have had more than half that number if you had been pulling the list together 10 years ago. The professional game has undoubtedly expanded internationally to some degree (albeit it small comprative to other sports) and Ireland/GAA has played a big part in this. It will...

    AFL eyes Ireland for Celtic team

    Who wants a "themed" footy team? This is professional football, not a Disney resort... Daft idea.

    2008 EU Cup

    Doubt it. A bit far for me to travel! Doubt you'll get many other people either if you keep switching dates! :D Which teams have entered this year so far?

    2008 EU Cup

    When did the date of this event change?? It was originally in the first week of October but the website says its going to be in the 2nd week of October? Who dropped the ball?! :confused: Hopefully this isn't going to muck up any teams plans to get there. How many sides have entered this...

    Could International Footie become bigger than International RL?
