[edit] Georgia Thrown out of RLIF
While I don't know if there was a rugby league domestic league in 2005 (I doubt it but will change my mind if I see proof) there most certainly isn't one now. The national team were entirely ring-ins from rugby union and the national team got thrown out of the world cup qualifiers after forfeiting a fixture in Russia in the first round. They have since been expelled from the RLIF and the game no longer exists in the country. I would just edit the article but it is in more detail than I know. I'll try to edit the national team article.James Bowes 19:24, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
No proof provided for the claims in a reasonable time so all clear nonsense will be removedJames Bowes 16:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Could you tell me where you heard this news? This is the only site on the internet where i can read it! I've noticed the RLIF no longer holds the Georgian team in its members or affiliate nations list - so it does appear as if your claims have credibility - but I'd really like to read it for myself.
