So far hoping to do at least 4.

England v Ireland & Fiji
England's QF
Scotland v USA

The Mrs wants to go to New York around semi final time so that could be an issue.

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg



Got to tie up a holiday in the UK at the same time as the last couple of weeks as the tournament. If it all works to plan, then should make 3 games.

For the negative amongst us, hang your heads in shame for not supporting it.

Will try for the 3 games in Hull and the double header in Cardiff, then will depend on where England are play to how many I'll go to after that.

Im a bit ed off that England vs Aus is in Cardiff so thats took the shine off it for me at the moment. Im sure i will catch the fever a bit closer to the time as i was really looking forward to it before they announced that Cardiff joke.

I read RLFANS every day, but as you can see I don't post too often! The negativity of a lot of people on here about anything and everything always makes me chuckle (its either that or cry, and I'd rather try and see the funny side). I'm excited about this World Cup, and everyone is entitled to NOT be excited if they so wish, but I can't believe the amount of people here and on other forums already writing it off.

The opening double header could hopefully see two closely fought games in a well attended (fingers crossed), dry stadium (Cardiff's roof ensuring there'll be no repeat of the wash-out at Twickenham in 2000; I was there and it wasn't pretty!).

Wales v Italy is just one of many games I think are impossible to predict the outcome of - Fiji v Ireland should be a cracker if it's anything like the 2008 WC game; France v PNG, France v Samoa, Samoa v PNG, Scotland v Tonga and Italy, Tonga v Italy, Wales v CI, Tonga v CI...all should be close, fiery encounters! Any match involving the South Pacific nations should be entertaining and lively because that's the style of rugby they usually play. And how often are you going to see them turn up in Warrington, Hull, Whitehaven or Leigh, let alone see the mighty Kangaroos run out at St Helens and Limerick, or the current World Champions grace Headingley?

There's more to international Rugby League than Australia, New Zealand and England, even if the eventual winners will be one of those three. It has the potential to be a fantastic tournament on the pitch - I only hope the RFL can do a worthy job of persuading the public (and RL fans as well!) that it's worth turning up to see in person. I honestly don't know how anyone can't be excited about the World Cup coming here!

RL "Fans" who moan about low crowds but refuse to attend themselves 18 months in advance are barmy and as someone else said, the sports worst enemy.

Rugby League fans will moan and complain about anything. I've noticed this a lot since being on here.

You lot who don't post so much should do so more!

Us optimists like Roughyed Spud, Sheldon, SEB, Conroy, leyther Matt, justarugbyfan and a few others need some backup sometimes!

Quote: SEB "

Or maybe the 'negative' people have the ability to think and make a judgement for themselves about whether something is worth doing. I would support the concept of a rugby league world cup, if it were done properly and had sufficient competitive nations in it to make it worthwhile. Lets be honest here, the sport at international level is so tiered that it's impossible to have a single tournament whilst maintaining respectible scorelines, the sport only has two fully professional leagues. There is also insufficient interest and marketing nouse to make the country take notice. It'll be another near media blackout, a financial mess and another embarassment for the sport.

Being a sickening, fawning fanboy over the sport and claiming you'll go to Bristol to watch a pathetic match between two fabricated teams doesn't make it any better.
