[edit] Style of Page

Perhaps for the general style of the article we should use something based on International_cricket_in_2005-06, but for games that don't have a subpage that goes into detail about them a blue game summary box could be used. The World Club Challenge box already uses a template from Football World Cup 1998 so perhaps a trend could be followed with that? mdmanser 13:23, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

I have used the same "blue box" format for the Charity Shield match. This is a notable trial match, and is given more weight than other trials, so it deserves its own box. (Besides which, I'm finding it hard to come across other trial info lol)
St George Illawarra is also promoting their remaining trial match as being an annual event "The Illawarra Mercury Challenge", so this perhaps deserves its own blue box as well.
Just explaining the reasoning behind what I've done :) Gonzerelli 13:33, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Layout of page

Just to go a little further... I've reorganised the page slightly, clearly placing trial matches separate to regular season matches. Gonzerelli 13:33, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Challenge Cup

I decided to add this competition as well. Tim Fellows 12:00, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] XXXX Test or no Test

I have reverted this for the moment, and here is why:

  • despite the story that appeared in NZ saying that it wasn't a test, the NZRL site still has it offically listed as a test in the most prominent spot on the website. Furthermore, the article may have been refering to comments made before that clarification was issued. As the NZRL is a more trusted source, I will err on the side of caution

Therefore, until I see something more official, I am going to leave this as a Test at the moment. The comment next to this match does note the media speculation that it will not be a Test, however.--dan, dan and dan 20:45, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

This match has been confirmed as a Test. See "KIWIS GET CAPS FOR XXXX TEST"--dan, dan and dan 07:36, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
