I'm not sure the players were consulted before this decision to withdraw was made. The NRL and ARLC are calling the shots.
Jason Costigan on ZB sport show yesterday said they weren't

2021 Rugby League World Cup to be delayed until 2022. It will probably now clash with the Football World Cup in Qatar.

That'll make big difference to interest in both tournaments.
Wait. No it won't.

But what about the dual internationals?

New dates announced. 15th October to 19th November 2022. Time to change the thread title to 2022 Rugby League World Cup. It will fit between the Commonwealth Games and the Fifa World Cup.

Dam good aussie side

@Mackerzzzz damn good kiwi side too

@Nepia I don’t think Kris is a true bolter just on the form that he and Timoko had for Canberra. CNK could be considered more of a bolter just on lack of first grade games! Likely one of Kris or CNK partner Hiku in the centres. Manu won’t be considered for anything other than fullback I suspect as he is that good
It’s a good squad, hopefully we stay injury free.

Kris is a bolter more on the fact he's actually a NZer than anything else (and chose to play for us).

@mariner4life said in NRL 2022:
Their top side won't be as good next year without kikau and apisau, but I don't bet against them unearthing good replacements.
And because they are local boys, and lots are family oriented poly boys, it's very hard to buy them away.
And they aren’t small families either, so there’s usually a younger bro or cousin coming through the ranks.
The system seems pretty solid but don’t underestimate the Sydney league media trying to find ways to get at them and unearth some controversy.

Good but even with the Island sides watering everything down probably not good enough to win the final.
