Touching on your idea...
We could, for instance, play a 16 team tournament with quarters:
Quarter...Port Moresby
Quarter...Christchurch
Quarter...Sydney
Quarter...Brisbane
Semi...Wellington (in honour of Baskerville's place of residence)
Semi...Brisbane/Sydney (bids)
Final...Auckland
Bulk of games in NZ centres such as Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Rotorua, Christchurch, Greymouth (to represent RL's dominance of the West Coast), Dunedin (to represent our struggle against discrimination in Otago) for example...

But hey, we'd be the best at something.
The WC should always be just that The World Cup.
If not the Golden Boot the four nations. I just don't believe in naming the WC after a player, at all.'"
His name is used for the shield for the Test winner between you (GB) and the Kiwis already btw.
And as he preferred to use Baskerville (and had it legally changed to that), although the family name was Baskiville, most historians tend to go with the former to respect the personal choice. | | |

I read about that although I never realised he legally changed his name.
A century ago it was common for people to adapt their names anyway, or it was in England. I'm sure 'Dally' Messenger is another

getting back on topic...
agreed that NZ should host a world cup...rather they host a 4nations solely first...to test the waters..afterall you can count the number of tests they've hosted over the last 10 years on 1 hand..(just about)

| Quote: Dico "Catalancs, it's when you see things like the turnout for the All golds game in RL heartlands, or not being able to sell the DW out for games against Aus or the pathetic crowds for last years Euro cup that really worries me.'"
The game that never was. The (non) marketing of the All Golds game was embarrassing. My dad only knew about it when he turned the tv on and they were playing. | | |

I knew about it for an eternity before.
It was just put across with about as much enthusiasm as a funeral and I knew no one was bothering (especially my mates i'd normally go the HJ with) so I didn't bother either
