New French team down under...

https://pacifique13.com/en/home/

A french speaking Rugby League team is bidding to join the lower leagues of Australian domestic competition and has launched their new website.

Pacifique Treize Rugby League is an Intrust Super Cup expansion bid for a team representing the French speaking Pacific Island territories of New Caledonia, Vanuatu, French Polynesia (Tahiti) and Wallis and Futuna that will be based in Noumea, New Caledonia.  

Laurent Garnier (not the 90's house DJ from the "F comms" label, that I know of) a man from Perpignan with an Australian wife is behind the bid and we wish him well.

I wonder if we might see some French prospects looking to try out and play down there going forward should the bid be successful.
