If England wins the bid for the World Cup, where will the Final be?
I think that Wembley is actually a realistic possibility IF it is promoted correctly and if the Tickets are a realistic price!
It would be one hell of an advert to the game if it was also!
We sell it out for CC finals so why not promote it big stile! If England got to the final can you Imagen it! icon_smile.gif

cant see this event working at all the ozzies will walk it , we now have 2 types of game , super league and the ozzie league,while i think our game is more open and entertaining,the ozzie game is 1 of sheer attrition,1 side gets tired and the other 1 wins,all the players are starting to look the same ,soon be no half backs etc ,just 17 big blokes against 17 big blokes,we will not live with their power,

Wembley is the National Stadium.

The trick would be to offer cheep tickets if your purchase before a selected day.

if its at wembley can you find enough aussie and kiwi fans to fill it

or perhaps if you have teams 3 and 4 playing the game before youll get english fans along to cover the rest.

You clearly have not watched an NRL game. Id love to know where people get this Superleague is more entertaining thing. The best thing about having a Superleague game on channel 9 before the NRL, is that you get to see exactly how poor Superleague actually is and how much of a higher standard the NRL is.

Actually watch a few games a week and then maybe you'll see. Anyway you enjoy your superleague and 2 rate rugby, because its never going to be close to the NRL.

As much as Ellis is playing well for Wests, ive never seen him look so tired throughout a game as he does down here.

That may be to do with the fact Sheens is playing him for 80 mins a game, where as at Leeds and for England he's been playing 55/65 mins a game the last couple of years.

funny how he's even admitted that its faster and harder, face it Superleague isnt even close to the standard of the NRL....

That is pretty much evident looking at the difference in player quality....

bondi,i never said our game was better than urs ,they are 2 different types of game superleague and nrl your players are supurb athletes your game is quicker and more physicly demanding but until 1 team gets tired its 5 and a kick,5 and a kick etc,its a stalemate,and your game is becoming stagnent and sometimes boring ,superleague is more or less at the stage origin was at 10yrs ago and is more open and more entertaining.you have moved 2 another level but not ness for the best
