Feel very conflicted about this World Cup, as I'm sure most English rugby league fans do. So many amazing stories, games, nations - like Australia v Fiji right now. It looks unbelievable. But obviously for English fans, it's happening at a funny time of the day, the format is obviously crap, the paywall.. but that really shouldn't detract from the bigger picture. Big crowds, big stories, loads of colour, rising nations. It's okay to not feel part of it but still acknowledge that it's been a great tournament. Two things can be true simultaneously. If English fans come across as down on what has been a great tournament, there are reasons why. We're detached from it on this side of the world - not helped by the men's team effectively being out three days into it starting!
