Aus.
But why would that be the case ?
I didnt see Leeds or Stains travelling over there when they were SL champions. |

They will prioritise playing that over playing the WCC.

Australia, as much as id be disappointed, makes sense, as the Aussies have longed to play it over there, and Wigan gives them the opportunity.
Bolton makes no sense and id love to hear the RFL's justification for that.
Still, if its in Aus, it will save any discussions over kits!!

When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club.
We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens.
Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

fec fec fec, if id have known this was going to happen theres no way id have been going to Oz next week. RFL in fec up shocker again!!!!
Weve had countless WCC over here involving smaller clubs such as Dulls,Stains,Whinos but hey ho a proper club comes along and they want it over there.
Although Id prefer the game to be played in Sydney than Bolton.

Us Wigan fans have been a long time waiting to get to play in a WCC match and because it suits the Aussies, we are having to travel now ?
Not to mention the possible disruption to our season, it could be catastrophic.
Come on Mr Lenagan, you are a 'fan' - do it for us loyal fans .. we want to see this live, not on Skysports.'"
St George a lot longer than us! |

It may be between playing a StG team over here half full of reserves in front of a half empty DW. Alternatively both clubs playing in Sydney with their first team squads in front of a full house at the SFS!
If StG are to fulfil all their fixtures then we are all in trouble.
They are going to have to drop one game or other to come over with a full squad.

| Quote: 21-12 ""especially going up against a world-renowned club such as Wigan". What was it they sang to us at Warrington and St Helens a couple of years back....."Your not famous anymore"
Still praying its at Wigan though.'"
Every time I heard this chant, I always thought our response should have been :
Than you, we’re still more famous that you,
We’re still more famous that you,
We’re still more famous that you.
Still they probably won be singing it for a good while again yet, ah well.
On the ground matter. Sydney for me. Yes, fixture congestion, etc,etc, but we are strong enough to cope. I just think if we win, it adds more to our reputation if we win it in Aus again, if we lose then as long as we don’t embarrass ourselves which I’m sure we wont then we can hold our head high.
Can’t afford to go though! |
