It makes no sense at all, I can not imagine Australian Fans embracing their Club playing the second and third best English Clubs, if the fans don't follow it neither will the Sponsors or the money, its that simple.

I can not understand some people on hear, to me its a great idea If it was possible I would love rugby league to be played all year, i know its not possible because of burn out but lets have this if we can and don't knock it

The problem I see with this is that it will still only be 1 "actual" WCC game between both GF winners, therefore the other 2 are just glorified friendlies that will mean nothing to either team and just disrupt the pre-season preperations of teams...

If it was played at end of season and was a 3 game playoff between SL & NRL (might be a few arguments over which club gets to lift the trophy) then it could be better placed to work.

Not sure about how clubs would view it, but imo, if I was coaching a team who finished 3rd the previous year and had to cart my team down under just after the start of the season to play a nothing game against 3rd in NRL, I would be tempted to send the U19's/academy/alliance - whatever RFL call them in 2 years time - and save my first team fresh for SL

And? Not a problem as long as it isn't every year. Chelsea v Man Utd a couple of years ago, don't think any fans complained

What are they Aussie teams playing for?
The best team has already been decided over a Season?
Pretty sure it was mooted as
1v1
2v2
3v3
That's it but if it was a 6 team contest and the final was between the Storm and the Dogs and the Dogs won, would that mean the Dogs are the best team in the World? even though they were handed their bums in the NRL grand final?
It all makes no sense
Put it away and promote the Test Matches FFS

Other sports don't see it as a problem. Sorry to keep using football but Chelsea won the European Champs League yet they finished 5th in the league. Can they class themselves as best in europe?
If your going down that line you can say Cas beat Leeds in the season so if the beat the storm does that mean Cas should be classed as the best in the world?
Not saying i believe it but just a point

it's also probably happened in the Heineken cup but I don't follow it well enough to know

The WCC is like a novelty event where it has favoured the team from one Country for 18 years, how can it be taken seriously?
The same people want this to become a game for 6 teams?
I can see why English Clubs like the idea, not sure why it would attract Australian fans?
If it was Football
Man Utd V Melbourne Victory FC
Man City V Central Coast Mariners
Chelsea V Western Sydney Wanderers
Would that sell well in England?

We need Test series built back up where England and one day France are winning.
The Club idea has been tried in the SL Wars and it was an embarrassment, the fact that top Oz players are unlikely to move to England sets the scene for more humiliation for a series like this.
It will undermine the Test Games and make the largest group of Fans that support this game (the Aussies) deride the English game even more.

No it's not.
If it was football it would be
Man Utd v Real Madrid
Man City v Barcelona
Chelsea v Athletico Madrid

I think that'd sell pretty well in England

Should the top three league teams be the teams to qualify, giving the league games some more competition and reasoning?!

But I am comparing our game to the quality of the same two countries in Football from each Country.

Well I still think it would be well attended Chelsea v Brentford pulled in a crowd of 40961 for a reply of a cup match.

You're saying the difference in standards in RL between the SL and NRL is similar to the difference between the premier league and the A-League in football? Give over.
