As an organisation Super League and the RFL have had 19 years to take the opportunity to create that sort of event alongside, at the start of SL, a not unreasonably competitive club. Too little, too late.

Yes you might get 80k to a Wigan v St Helens. You might find few bother then going to the CC Final

This would indicate that they don't expect us back in SL anytime soon.

A little bit too late to be pro active now in the capital... if they wanted to create an event, maybe they should of had a proper international each year at Wembely or even moving the grand final there (make a package deal GF and CC Final)
The biggest problem with the RFL/Super League is the lack of money and exposure. They need a visionary ( a massive shake up in mangement) like the NRLS's David Smith to change things.

Super League should have helped London find and own there own stadium by now (years ago). But instead left them in the mess that they have been in.

The lack of money and exposure are two sides of the same coin. If you don't get out there you get neither. Retrenching to the M62 then shipping Batley v Dewsbury (it may as well be because no northern RL team has any brand recognition down here) at the Emirates will do nothing but waste money and put people off of doing the job properly.
What we need is international football. Then more international football, followed by more international football. We at the Broncos will have to sort ourselves out.

good point

They couldn't sell out a Aus v NZ match at The Stoop!

I wouldn't go and see Wigan play if it was in my back garden.

Sometimes I think RFL stands for real F***ing Lunatics!

If London were back in SL and they did this it would be a bit of an insult!

People do respond to London "events"; RU London Double Header, NFL, NBA etc and surprisingly RLWC semi-finals but most people have don't know what Super League is... The only way I could see this working is if RU drop the London Double Header; I've read on RU boards that it doesn't make the clubs money and they would prefer to get rid of it. RL could step in with a RL double header (including London Broncos). What is more likely though is a game at Craven Cottage in front of 10,000 people and no media coverage.

Have to say the same about watching Wigan, they would have to pay me to go.
Got to say it seems very odd, they have the cc every year, have staged wc games at Wembley why on earth they think a one off game like Wigan saints would draw anymore is confusing.
Not sure what they think it's gonna achieve, maybe it's a reaction to wasps and the first outing at coventry

The RFL never fail to amaze me. Complete and utter tosh.

Outrageous comment. It's right not real

Lmao, a whole quarter of a century late, the RFL wants to raise the games' profile in the capital.

I bow to your superior knowledge

Get rid of a SL team and bring down 2 clubs from towns in the North West and try and sell it. What are they thinking about?

Isn't the Challenge cup final what they are trying to achieve???

Wish one (or even 2) of the World Club Challenge games were played in London as I can't be d to trudge all the way to the M62 to watch one.
