Rugby League legend Garry Schofield, in his weekly League Express column, believes Australia should be banned from the next two World Cups, if they refuse to take part in the 2021 tournament.
“Quite simply, there’s no way the Aussies should be dictating to the rest of the rugby league world,” Schofield wrote.
“I think we should give them a helping hand by telling them if they don’t send their strongest possible squad to this World Cup, they will be banned from the next two tournaments.”
Schofield is known for not holding back, but it’s obvious that the Australians’ reluctance is rankling those following the sport in the UK whilst tournament organiser Jon Dutton tries desperately to persuade those Down Under to make the trip.
