The squad announced on the official Welsh RL site is different to the one on the official RLWC side. [http://www.walesrugbyleague.co.uk/article/16226/-man-squad-for-rlwc-revealed] includes Matt Barron while [http://www.rlwc2017.com/news/wales-announce-24-man-squad-world-cup] includes Anthony Walker. Which side do we go with? Mattlore (talk) 19:45, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

:The Welsh RL site says Ant Walker (concussion) was ruled out through injury, so I guess Wales RL just hasn't submitted an updated line up to the RLWC organisers yet. Mattlore (talk) 19:45, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

::Yeah I definitely think Wales Rugby League is the more reliable source. Narkova (talk) 23:48, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

Point taken but we might need to revisit if the RLIF and/or the RFL say it wasn't a test match and doesn't count for Tongan test records. Nthep (talk) 11:16, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

:I have no doubt that the RFL will count the match among their records. It depends how the whole Tonga situation finishes as to whether the new board recognises these matches retrospectively. But I'm willing to bet the RLIF will consider them Tests as the Invitational team is within their control, as far as I'm aware. Or perhaps the NRL is in control of the team, but they are of course still aligned with the RLIF. Narkova (talk) 11:25, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

Any suggestions on how to indicate 5 point tries in the 9s articles? Nthep (talk) 09:41, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

:The :Template:Rugbyleaguebox collapsible currently just has fields "points1" and "points2", so you can create the bold headings manually. Something to this effect, but perhaps in a different order or different wording:

{{Rugbyleaguebox collapsible|date=Friday, 18 October|time=|team1={{rl-rt|ENG}}|team2={{rl|WAL}}|score=25 – 4|stadium=7:10pm|manofmatch=|referee=Ben Cummins|points1=Tries: Connor (2), Clark, McGillvary
5 point tries: Tomkins
Goals: Widdop (2)|points2=Tries: Butt|report=}}

:Narkova (talk) 12:48, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

That works, I'd perhaps call it Bonus point tries or use a symbol e.g.

{{Rugbyleaguebox collapsible|date=Friday, 18 October|time=|team1={{rl-rt|ENG}}|team2={{rl|WAL}}|score=26 – 4|stadium=7:10pm|manofmatch=|referee=Ben Cummins|points1=Tries: Connor (1, 1*), Clark (1), McGillvary (1)
Tomkins (1*)
Goals: Widdop (2)|points2=Tries: Butt|report=}}

* indicates bonus point try worth 5 points

Happy with either though. Nthep (talk) 13:03, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

:I don't think the symbol quite works for when a player scores both a bonus try and non-bonus try, like you show for Jake Connor. I also find it a bit redundant to list that each player has one try each, so perhaps that's what makes "(1, 1*)" look rather odd.

:I think using "5 point tries" is a bit more self explanatory for those unaware that there was indeed a method for scoring tries worth an extra point. But they're all correct whichever wording ends up being used. Narkova (talk) 13:13, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

::5 point or Bonus point - not a lot in it either way. After I'd posted my comment I realised there's a further disadvantage to the symbol as you can't get the explanation inside the collapsed box so let's go with your way. Nthep (talk) 13:22, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

:::Yep, 5 point or Bonus point. Either is better than bonus zone, which requires a search of the rule variations to explain its value. Narkova (talk) 13:25, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for creating this article. It's such a minefield and should have had a page on its own sooner. Nthep (talk) 12:02, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

:Cheers, I'm glad you think it's a good addition! Narkova (talk) 12:13, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Hello, and thank you for removing vandalism from :List of Penrith Panthers representatives. We appreciate this, but unfortunately your edit was not successful in restoring the article to its pre-vandalised state. For future reference, it is better to deal with vandalism by checking the article's [{{fullurl:List of Penrith Panthers representatives|action=history}} page history] to determine how it appeared before it was vandalised. You can then restore the whole article, or the relevant part of it, to an appropriate earlier version. If you simply delete the visible vandalism then any content removed or overwritten by the vandal is lost. See How to deal with vandalism for details. Thank you.

:Compare your edit there to the vandalism edit. I've fixed it all up, but please keep this sort of thing in mind in the future. Graham87 (talk) 14:46, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
