From Nights, 10:45 pm on 7 October 2021

The Rugby League World Cup was meant to kick off in England in two weeks time but after New Zealand and Australia withdrew due to concerns over Covid-19, it has been postponed to 2022. It's not all sad news as this afternoon the Kiwis' Rugby League World Cup Wider Squad was announced. One of those named in the line-up is none other than Glenora Bears junior and now Cronulla Sharks prop Braden Hamlin-Uele.
