Well done Japan. However , I can't wait till the day there is a war between league and union and league triumphs. I would love to see the JRL - Japan Rugby League

Brave Blossoms?

Go, you good thing! Go!

roosterman77 that is never going to happen, there is really only three countries who play league eng aus nz, france have a team, and papua new guinea play, but the last two are no where in the scheme of things, its a minor sport even in the places it is played by the top teams.
League is a game for the lower class, beer drinking swearing, fighting factory workers, japan is a little more culturally advanced and struggles to get rugby going let alone league, no way will your idea gain any traction.

@StormR
There are more rugby clubs in Japan than any other nation on Earth. Fact.

Yes lacabrasi, thanks for adding to my point, even wiht all those clubs the sport still struggles here, how does roosterman77 think league will will get a foot hold? League is a joke as far as international sports go seriously.

StormR It's all tongue in cheek. I'm embarrassed I have to spell it out. We all know union is the game toffs play in heaven.

I'm with you 100 percent Roosterman, I could see you were having a laugh. Just a shame another poster seems to lack a sense of humour. I guess when one is from a minor country , often a siege-mentality/chip on shoulder is prevalent...

Yes, Roosterman, I'm sure all those Welsh coal miners who play are absolutely loaded ;)
