There is some good news form the UK with the English launching their new shirt and also some good news out of Wales. Also the first results from this years Serbian Championships have come in. The competition has gone through a restructuring which two tiers now. Also the new Canadian Wolverines Logo.
The Canadian Wolverines Logo has been launched and drawn mixed reactions from fans. see the logo at http://www.canadarugbyleague.com/site/eng/wolverines/ and it also has the Wolverines Sacred Oath.
The latest results from the Serbian season have come in. After several years of expansion the Serbian championships are now split into two tiers of four teams each. These are divisions based on the quality of the teams. So Division 1 is the top tier and division 2 hs some of the teams that are still building up their skills. I believe it is a promotion and relegation system they have now. With round one under way now the results in division 1 are; Dorcol 60-6 Radnicki, Red Star 6-12 Tsar Lazar. The table is:
| Team | P | W | D | L | B | PD | Pt | |
| 1 | Dorcol | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 54 | 2 |
| 2 | Tzar Lazar | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 6 | 2 |
| 3 | Red Star | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -6 | 0 |
| 4 | Radnicki | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | -54 | 0 |
Division 2 results are; Morava 6-64 Nis, Soko 14-36 Stari Grad. A round 3 game has also been played in advance Morava 0-32 Soko. The table is:
| Team | P | W | D | L | B | PD | Pt | |
| 1 | Nis | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 58 | 2 |
| 2 | Stari Grad | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 22 | 2 |
| 3 | Soko | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 10 | 2 |
| 4 | Morava | 2 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 | -90 | 0 |
Finally in the University Championships some of the postponed matches from last year group rounds were played. The round 3 game between Philosophy and Military saw the Philosophers win 28-4 and in a 5th round match Organisational beat transport 34-4. Two more matches are left to play, a round 4 game between the Political and Philosophy faculties and a 5th round match between Political and Military. The table stands as:
| Team | P | W | D | L | B | PD | Pt | |
| 1 | Philosophy | 4 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 94 | 6 |
| 2 | Organisational | 5 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 28 | 5 |
| 3 | Military | 4 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 1 | -6 | 2 |
| 4 | Transport | 5 | 1 | 0 | 3 | 1 | -108 | 2 |
| 5 | Political | 4 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | -8 | 1 |
