In a way, I wouldn't mind having the England vs France/Wales game at the KC. Wouldn't mind seeing someone different for a change, and I reckon we could get a decent crowd for it in Hull (better than at Donny anyway). Think the RFL need to start being a bit more ambitious with their stadium selections. Picking a 14k ground for an international will only make people think it's not that important.

If Wales win the European Cup though, I would hazard a guess that it would be in the North West area (closer to Wales). They could probably sell out the DW with the right kind of promotion.

fair enough, maybe as it will be 6 years(next year)since we had the aussies they could have carried on alternating the venues, seems the jjb always get them

Would have had it the last time round if it wasnt for that to$$er Duffen.

thats all under the bridge now, atleast were moving in the right direction!

Cant we have OZ v NZ

I'd imagine that'll be at the Stoop as in 2009.

Would sooner watch that than our shower of $hit and would get a damn sight better crowd here than it would down there.

Oh I quite agree. Aus v NZ at the KC would be awesome. I just think the RFL will go for the Stoop, they got over 12,000 in 2009.

Pi$$ poor though that isnt it for a match of that stature....there are a damn sight more convicts and Kiwis in london than that....sod them down south...bring it up here and get a full crowd in.......23.000 shouting for the Kiwis...lol

I would think the red and white lot would be supporting Australia

Sadly you do reckon.

What killed off any three-test tour was financials and logistics.

It simply is no longer feasible to continue in the traditional 3-test format

Be nice to see some decent rugby at the KC
