Or maybe not: http://gantdaily.com/2013/12/08/rfl-denies-one-off-game-against-wallabies-in-2014/ Confused messages from the RFL to be expected I suppose.

Personally would rather stick pins in my eyes than watch it, and I can't see them selling more than 20-30k tickets for it if it happened. Beyond dumb.

Good call, can you buy 1/2 a ticket? The match will be a joke and pointless exercise.

But But But....60% of these would be first time buyers of tickets to either Union or League and would be proof that the game of RL is a truly national one with fans from places like Essex
