Exiles International On the Cards for 2021
From news breaking on Twitter it appears that there may be a mid-summer revival of the Exiles for a game to be played over the international weekend of the 25th to 27th June 2021 with most likely England, but possibly a GB Lions team, taking on an international side made up of overseas players plying their trade in Super League.
It has come to light after the RFL published a job advert for a Team Manager to attend all team events and training session and to be part of the camp during the competition period.

I think its a good idea, gives England a tougher game than the other home nations and France can offer, and allows the Exiles players a chance to impress the South Sea Island coaches ahead of the World Cup.
It only started to flag last time because the Marketing dropped, sure I remember them playing mid week and it all felt hastily arranged.

It’s just another unnecessary fixture.

England need a quality game that's for sure.
Perhaps play an exiles side and/or a best of super league side which includes those that haven't made the squad. England B almost.

The England side certainly need some game time together and there aren't too many options for who they can play.
Squeezing the game in to an already crammed fixture list will be a little bit tricky.
Back in the day, the international games would be played on Saturday and regular fixtures on Sunday, with clubs with 3 or 4 players selected able to postpone their fixture, with the rest having to play their regular league fixtures without their "star" players.

Isn’t there a big thing about player welfare at the moment, in that there are too many fixtures as it is? |

| It doesn't help having to play 4 games between 26th Aug - 12th Sept. This includes the so called big Magic W/E spectacle.  |

And those are the planned fixtures, just imagine if games are lost due to covid etc.
After the madness of last season and with more games in a shorter time frame, followed by the W/C, there is going to need to be some very clever management of game time and somehow some rest given to those players who we are expecting to perform well in the World Cup. |

Agreed. Also, the first 2 loopy games could've/should've been omitted.
Just to make a personal disgruntled pov regarding our biggest game for the fans against Wigan @ the LSV, this game has been planned the week before any fans are allowed in. |
