Lass in sales said blame rfl?? Anyway kicked off..... As a rabbitohs international member she sorted sum decent seats!!! Will be plenty in red n green tbhand bunnies up for it big time!!!

Sorry but you have to lay that at a different door. It's the NRL clubs that will not play at the end of the season. The RFL could hold it and fund it but the NRL clubs would not turn up.

It's a matter of whether the NRL will wake up and smell the coffee before RU do and put on a WCC themselves.

Melbourne Storm Craig Bellamy coach has said that it is ridiculous to hold the WCC at the beginning of the new season, because of team changes. Surely others like Wayne Bennett agree with him.

It is probably a question of getting other coaches to speak out on this matter, before the NRL will wake up and smell the coffee.

Got my ticket for Wigan match. The club website says that they have allready sold 10k tickets and they are only just starting to promote the game. Might make some money this time as according to Ian Lenegan at the recent fans forum we lost £95k going down under last year. His main complaint was that the Aussies didn't market the game very well leading to a lower gate (e.g. no programmes were produced for the game!). The gate (35k?) was the Rabbitohs biggest gate until round 8 of the NRL.

If it's going to last it has to be the end of the season, and all tree games in one stadium old Trafford or wembley ( if in UK) also to insentivise the challenge cup the winner must get a place.

traveling up from london for the saints vs souths match. Got my ticket soon as they went on sale and i wil be sitting in the souths end with my Rabbitohs jersey on.

hoping there is a good number of south's fans for this game. trains from london that weekend to the North West are murder though. no direct trains to Manchester or liverpool due to engineering works.

i have to go to birmingham and then change for train to manchester.
