    From what I can gather, the Pacific Cup will be between Papua New Guinea, The Cook Islands, Fiji and the winner of a match between Samoa and Tonga.

    Interesting to note that the Canadian Wolverines recently beat Jamaica 40-10 and the USA 18-16. They play South Africa on the 9th of October and if they beat them then they have beaten all 3 contestants particpating in the Atlantic Qualifiers for the RLWC2013.

    Bit off topic but here's some highlights from the recent game between USA and Canada

    <object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5TY6FvYsJlk&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5TY6FvYsJlk&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></embed></object>

    Not bad for developing nations.

    Looks a bit lower than park footy tbh, hooker not passing from the ground, no ruck work whatsoever. Throw a few ex NRL heads in there though and there'll be some improvement.


    Are there any clips around of games in their national comp?

    The Canadians played their first ever international match just over a year ago apparently so they were pretty good considering. The USA has 2 seperate leagues, the AMNRL and the USARL. USARL only started up this season and the New York Knights won that comp. There was some dispute about the AMNRL and they split into 2 competitions. Will scour the web for videos.

    EDIT: Actually, NY Knights are the AMNRL champs. Philadelphia Fight are the USARL champs :p

    If I wasn't with me mrs I'd be doing everything within my power to get a gig in that league, two blokes from group 7 headed over there last year, one being a reserve grader.

    Yeah, it'd be pretty awesome for juniors here who know they'd never make it in the NRL.

    Haha, what I meant was it would probably be quite easy to get a gig over there :p

    But you're also saying Me and Benny are a 80-90% chance of Jack Reeding it next year and coming from nowhere to reign supreme in the NRL?
