Have we got any idea yet what's happening in the World Club Challenge yet next year?? I know they've mentioned 2 games here, 2 in Aus, any idea anyone please?? Would be great to see Melbourne again, or the Sharks. We may get hammered but always a pleasure to watch anyway

Could be on either side of the world and may be down to two teams. They will probably decide to have it on a Thursday night a few days beforehand.

Easy.
The Aussies will win no matter who they play ,when and where.
British RL is that good.

Not saying this is confirmed but the Warrington Guardian reported during last weeks game with Hull.

[iBREAKING NEWS

just award the games to the top 4 teams!

obviously the GF winners will play the NRL GF winners

sure i read confirmation that a club official of hull fc said we also qualified after winning the challenge cup

Better yet stick with just one game!

I don't suppose Hetherington wil be leading the negotiations like last year unless the Aussies fancy playing 12 matches.

I'd rather go back to 1 game. 1 team from each comp, representing their country, with everything resting on that one game.

3 or 4 games is OK in theory, *if* the games are going to be competitive. The results in the last two seasons have shown us that, regrettably, that is not the case. In the light of that, I agree the extra games add nothing and should be abolished.

If already does rest on oneq game. Only one match from the three has the WCC trophy up for grabs.

I happy for it to continue as it is. Yeah last year want competitive but don't see why we should give up playing the NRL clubs.

If the NRL clubs are keen to keep it as it is then see no reason to change.

Agree with this, really enjoyed our game (Wire) v St George it's up to our clubs to up the ante and the best way to improve standards is to play better opposition

Don't want to make excuses, the Aussie clubs were excellent and ruthless this year but all three SL clubs were struggling with plenty of injuries and lots of key players missing and we all know that our sides can ill afford to be less than at full strength to compete. Hopefully the sides that play next year will get that bit of luck at least and they should be better spectacles.

I know its a joke, but it has been Hetherington and Moran leading the discussions up to now so i assume that has carried on.

So Melbourne have said unless it commercially attractive they probably will elect to not play.

Agree with Lenagan when he says that it is crazy that with 4 months to go the WCC is still not finalised.

time to pull the plug on the WCC. Same UK teams every year, aussies treat it as a training exercise, it's not even competative anymore.
