A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult”:



Got shouted down when suggesting bigger venues the next 4 nations should not be doubleheaders they all should have there own venues nz v aus should be Olympic stadium eng v aus old Trafford eng v nz city ground if France are the 4th nation there games should be played in France and the final Wembley people want to be involved in big time events ,sponsor's want to be involved let's step the sport up to the big time level or continue to wallow in small time

I'm not sure Aus v NZ at Olympic Park would be a good idea, agree with the sentiment though

Completely agree.

Play it at smaller stadiums and it comes across as a small time sport.

Playing at bigger and more impressive stadiums helps create that 'event' appeal that attracts the floating fan and stokes up interest.

GB played NZ at Loftus Road, in 2005 and attracted 15-16k. Pretty much the same fixture in the same city, but plated at the Olympic Stadium is already at 40k. It's not [iall[/i due to the choice of stadium, but it's a big part of it.

Sorry to bring up a Union reference, but the amount of people I know this Autumn who've been to a RUWC game despite not being RU fans is ridiculous. Every fker seemed to be at the Scotland USA game at Elland Road.

Scrap double headers too, again that just devalues our game.

The 4 nations needs to be at better stadiums. Think bigger and market the hell out of it

England vs Australia - Wembley (90k)
New Zealand vs Scotland - Ibrox (51k)

England vs Scotland - Elland Road (38k)
Australia vs New Zealand - Olympic Stadium (54k)

England vs New Zealand - Etihad (60k)
Scotland vs Australia - Easter Road (20k) or Tynecastle (17k)

Final - Old Trafford (76k)

I agree we need to go bigger for the 4 Nations. I'd say England-Australia at Wembley or Olympic Stadium, England-NZ at the Etihad or Old Trafford and I think Scotland are the 4th team so realistically you're looking at Hudds or Hull for that one. Then play NZ-Australia in London. Final at Old Trafford or the Etihad.

Wales have beaten France and will lift the European Championship if they beat Ireland next week. It's a shame victory doesn't qualify them for the four nations as they are significantly stronger than Scotland. Maybe we should play Wales next year as a four nations warm up instead of France.

Yes You'd have thought the reward for winning the European Championship would be a place in the 4Nations so that the best team gets a spot...but this is Rugby League!

Reason they aren't qualifying for 4 nations is because the next one to qualify for is 2018 and that will be an pacific team seen as it alternates. 2020 is the next European qualifier so the team that wins 2018 European cup will be that team.
