    So that might be the 7th game for our memberships, I wonder?

    Would be cool if he could get some other warm-ups here, especially teams that have an ex-pat base here, like the Italians for example

    would be nice - but a long way to travel, and not cheap to bring a National Team to Perth from Europe.

    And Helen from the Force office has confirmed.

    Also confirmed NRC planning is going ahead, but no information can be released until RA green-lights it. So that'll be a week or so before the season starts, then!

    From my understanding, the only aspects requiring the "green light" from RA are game times in Australia and the approval for another Aussie team (if one is required), as all other 'approvals' are in place.

    APOLOGIES CHAPS - read this as GRR rather than NRC.

    No other team in NRC - to my knowledge.
    The hold-up in announcing the NRC, I understand, is trfying to lock in game time with all else that is happening especially the build-up to the RWC in Japan.

    Another Australian NRC team would show an unexpected degree of commitment from RA...?!

    And given RA's organisational ability, I stand by not hearing diddly-squat about the NRC until about a week before the season starts!

    This game is 4 sleeps away and there is almost nothing to be found about this "Malaysia Valke" team.

    No recent mention in Malaysia. No recent mention in South Africa. Farkall locally as well.

    The Oakland Raiders are in town?

    Don't agree it's overshadowed. More like non-existent. I'm not talking about the Western Force (we know that entity exists). That's not the case for Malaysia Valke.

    • Have the players arrived in Perth from South Africa? ... No one knows.
    • Does Malaysia even get a token waterboy? ... No one knows.


    Nothing out there. Nada, nil, nuthin'.

    Maybe the answers to those questions are not going to tell the story that GRR and Malaysia Rugby wont told!
