Rugby League in Australia, New Zealand and England are the main sources of Rugby League. Countries like pacfic reigon such as Samoa, Tonga, Cook islands and Papa New Genuia are part of their tradional lives. Not like Australia where it's "business". Europe is increasing their supports and the main countries that have improved Rugby League and to my suprise are Canda, Wales and Lebanon.

It was Barry John of Wales and the original Cardiff RFC. The name "The King" was actually coined originally by his half back partner Gareth Edwards (Wales and Cardiff) The name came from when Gareth Edwards visited Barry Johns home and found a huge house. He returned to the club and told team mates , "I've been out to Barry house, its huge he lives like a King". The name stuck. However, it also reflected his skills on the pitch both for country and for the Lions.
