| The incentive for england to win there group is to avoid a tricky semi final against more than likely New Zealand.
The incentive for Wales to win there group is to avoid going out the comp and the reward for winning there group is a quarter final with Australia or England.

Hahaha
During the 2008 World Cup down under, I was browsing in a famous RL store in Parramatta a couple of hours prior to the Ireland V Samoa game kicking off. A bus load of England fans turned up to the store. The owner of the store offered these England fans free tickets for the Ireland V Samoa game at Parramatta Stadium if they spent just $10. Most of them spent way over $10 but turned down the free tickets. I asked several of those fans why they weren't going to the game that evening and the response was... it's not England and it's not part of our official England itinerary tour.
Yep... rugby league is chocka full of fans just like that.

What about them? Money is a finite resource.

| So far I've got tickets for 10 games plus the two double headers. There's been some absolute bargains around ticket wise, especially with the offer codes giving adult tickets from a fiver.
Hopefully we'll have a comp like the last world cup where the "lesser" teams served up some really entertaining games. I'm particularly looking forward to NZ v Samoa, Tonga v Cook Islands and Tonga v Italy. I think the tickets for those three totalled less than £25.

I think Headhunters point was if you dont want to go to an England game because of the squad McNamara chooses, then buy a ticket not involving England instead. You can get a ticket for £10.
Agree with the above poster, I'm looking forward to the smaller nations games as well.

Samoa, Tonga, Cooks and Italy will be 75%+ Australian born....if you're keen to watch 2nd rate Aussies then Parramatta v Penrith in the NRL is cheaper

£10 to see PNG v Samoa is great value. I really think it will be one of the highlights of the world cup. Also many other games like that Tonga v Cook Islands, Scotland v Italy etc great value for money
Also with codes out there you can get tickets £5, you can't go and see Champ 1 for those prices
I have bought all my tickets apart from the Quarters, waiting to see where England will play.

The air fare might just tip the expense though

| Any tips on the offer codes currently available? Think I'll start purchasing some of mine now.

| Quote BiffasBoys="BiffasBoys"Can you quantify 'something positive to happen'? In light of what?
It is calling to it's own people. Is everyone supposed to just blindly follow the call? Am I supposed to spend money without knowing who is being picked for England?
I'd say it was perfectly reasonable for a customer to know what they were getting before parting with their money.'"
How about just going to watch a game of rugby league whilst supporting your country? Naah, forget it, that'll never catch on.
I'm doing a fair chunk of the other games as well. Looking forward to it, don't understand why anyone wouldn't support this tournament as much as they can.
