In a really positive move, showing joined up thinking, the FFR XII have postponed all domestic rugby league over the weekend of 18th May.
This will allow supporters, players and officials of all clubs from the Elite competition down to make the short trip over the border to Barcelona for Catalans vs Wigan.
We hear commentators and analysts across UK rugby league calling for an approach that maximises the events available to the sport and this will be seen as a positive sign for the game.
