In a very positive move for international rugby league Richard Lewis the Deputy Chairman of the Rugby League International Federation has tabled a ten year plan. According to the RFL website the New Zealand Chairman Andrew Chalmers has already agreed to the schedule and the plan will be put forward to the Australian Rugby League in November.

For the first time in a long time international rugby league seems to have some direction. Richard Lewis should be commended for the 10 year plan. The NRL and Super League have both had record crowds and sponsorship over the last few years. The game at club level has never been in better shape. It is now the time to put some effort into international rugby league and assist other nations outside the big three.
