: B) I thought RL didn't have any loose forwards?

Number 13, which is more commonly called the lock in this part of the
world. (The lock's a tight forward in RU and a loose forward in RL)

: As an aside what's the population of the Cook islands, isn't it pretty small,
: as in if you're over 18 you make the team type small?

While the population of the Cook Islands is very small, a large
proportion of Cook Islanders live in New Zealand, particularly Auckland,
and a lot of the players play their league in NZ (similarly with Western
Samoa and Tonga).

Cheers,

Keith.

I remember back when lock usedta get penalised for breaking the scrum
before the ball was clear. Maybe that was just JRFL rules (juniors) but
it was a bastard :(. Then there was that french feed stuff :) OH THE
SHAME a halfback hadta suffer if he couldnt feed straight.
