The NRL season may have come to a glorious end on Sunday night, but the rugby league action doesn't stop there.
The Rugby League World Cup is just under a fortnight away, with the tournament returning after a five-year hiatus.
That extended break was due to France's withdrawal as hosts for 2025, meaning the tournament was kicked down the road a year, with Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea stepping up to stage the event.
Men's, women's and wheelchair competitions will take place for a month from Oct. 15, with the men's decider bringing down the curtain on the tournament in Brisbane on Nov. 15.
Check out the squads for the men's tournament as they're named below!
