Rugby League is coming home: What the World Cup means for the sport's heartland

Crunching tackles, fans celebrating tries and screams of ‘get em onside’ will be sounded across the Greater Manchester towns as they feature headline clashes over the coming weeks from the men’s, women’s and wheelchair Rugby League World Cup.
