[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 623602, member: 20605"] Back in those days, the Great Britain RL team was essentially England in everything but name, because RL was not played at all in Ireland, Wales or Scotland. You might get the occasional Welshman playing, but they would be playing for an English RLFC. In fact, it would be more accurate to say that GB was in fact a "North of England" with no Clubs playing anything like top level RL much further south than Wigan. [/QUOTE]
