Opinion - Can we crown the Euro champs?

It's going to be tough to produce any single ladder of rankings at the moment, as the two common incarnations of the game (full 18's, no Aussies and 9's with some expats allowed based on handicapped scoring) are both necessary, to give the countries with more established organisations, and the newcomers who are just starting on the footy path a chance to compete in this fantastic sport.

The reduced numbers game has definitely made it more accessible to the wider population in the UK, and has been a great way of spreading interest and knowledge of the game. Saturday's match between the Bulldogs and Dragonslayers also showed that there are players in the small-teams structure who have the potential to step up and be in serious consideration for the Bulldog's squad, which is great to see.

Looking forward to seeing more countries in Melbourne next year!
