Malta and Norway players have promised to put it on tomorrow night when they take each other on at Victor Tedesco Stadium for the 2010 European Bowl.

Norway coach Warren Heilig told journalists at this afternoon's press conference that they should give up their day jobs if they didnt throroughly enjoy tomorrow night's display of rugby league.

"If you don't like what you see tomorrow night, you don't like sport. Just...give up" said Heilig.

Heilig credited Malta that they have some of the world's best rugby athletes in the world.

"The Maltese have players playing professionally all over the place, these are some of the best rounded athletes anywhere in the world" said Heilig.

At the opposite end of the table, Malta coach Anthony Micallef said there were no secrets about Malta's intentions.

"This is the step before we apply to be considered for the 2013 Rugby League World Cup through qualifiers from 2011" said Micallef.

"The work we are doing, from our Wheelchair Rugby League Championship, working with the youth through schools development, the mens senior domestic championship and through to the very national team that will play tomorrow evening, is all a part of our general mission to promote and develop rugby league within the Maltese community. Our next step is inclusion in the 2013 Rugby League World Cup"

St Paul’s Bay lock-forward Daniel Grima will take up his third appointment as national team captain and interchange back rower Clifford Debattista will become the first born and bred Gozitan to play for Malta's national rugby league team.

Norway will train at Tal Handaq Boys Secondary School, Qormi tomorrow morning. The Maltese squad will assemble at St Julians and make their way to St George's Bay for 9am.
