2021/07/23 09:07 MANCHESTER, England (AP) Australia and New Zealand were called “selfish” and cowardly” for pulling out of the Rugby League World Cup in October in England on Thursday. The southern hemisphere giants, who have won 12 of the 15 World Cups, stunned organizers when they withdrew citing player welfare and safety concerns in the pandemic. They want the World Cup postponed to 2022. Only a week ago, organizers confirmed the joint men s, women s and wheelchair tournament was going ahead from Oct. 23 although Australia had yet to sign the participation agreement. The World Cup organizers have bent over backwards and turned double somersaults to meet every single requirement that was asked of them, by the Australians particularly,” English Rugby Football League chairman Simon Johnson said.
