I’m not usually one for complaining about the refs but that was an absolutely disgraceful job of officiating. Samoa absolutely screwed over big time on every big call. Surely can’t be having Aussies refereeing Australia in a WC Semi Final #RLWC2026

Actually an insane ending to the Chinese Super League. Unbelievable levels of bottling from Chengdu!!
🇨🇳 THE MOST INSANE BOTTLE JOB IN ASIAN FOOTBALL HISTORY?! Chengdu Rongcheng were 12 points clear in the Chinese Super League with four rounds left - but have lost every single game and been overtaken by Dalian Yingbo on H2H results! It had already been a strange season in China even before the run-in, with 9 of the 16 teams starting the season on minus points due to historic offences related to match-fixing, gambling & corruption!

Jesus wept, just get the bloody deal signed and let’s crack on #NRL #SuperLeague
Exclusive: Super League has MISSED Peter V'landys' deadline of today to come to terms on a partnership with the NRL. Unclear what happens next, but there were late changes proposed, and a deal did not get agreed. All options back in play now, folks.. loverugbyleague.com/post/nrl…

Genuinely believe this is a very beatable team for a good 3 or 4 other nations. Looking forward to the World Cup getting underway! #RLWC26
This is us. Your 2026 IRL Rugby League World Cup Kia Kangaroos 🦘 Let's get to business #RLWC26

Absolutely gutted for the Knights. So, so close. Very brave effort but defending for as long as they did and giving up so many metres in each set was asking for trouble #NRL
WHAT A GAME 🏆 #NRL #NRLGF

The more nonsense I read from the RFL, the more I start to favour just pulling away and having the NRL form a breakaway competition. NRL investment and expertise would be a huge, huge benefit for the English game, but the powers that be seem determined to mess it up #NRL

Very sad news. Legend of the game would be an understatement. RIP Sir Billy.
Today we mourn the loss of a true sporting icon, Sir Billy Boston, who has passed away surrounded by his family. Rugby League’s first knight, a Wigan legend, and "Everybody's Hero," his legacy on and off the field will endure for eternity. Rest in peace, Sir Billy. 🍒⚪️

Not a fan of this I must say
Talk about timing International Rugby League has announced that Premier Sports has secured the exclusive broadcast rights for IRL Rugby League World Cup 2026 in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Possibly the worst World Cup final of all time, but nice one Spain 👏🏼

What a load of embarrassing Americanised shite that was. Don’t want to see that nonsense at a World Cup final again, get on with the football.

Incredible Egyptian goal is disallowed because of a foul far away, then same situation a few minutes later and goal for Argentina not disallowed! No VAR, nothing? FIFA again looks like a corrupt joke, playing favorites for stars.

Egypt absolutely robbed there. The corruption in this organisation is either shocking, or the referees and VAR are genuinely awful. Then again, could be both.
