I am as excited about this as the semi final. It's a 9 hour drive from Melbourne but I'll defo be going. It will be my only Hull game apart from Wembley in 3 years, at least the trip isn't as far this time.

For those wondering why Wollongong.

I'm not 100% on this, a Melbourne storm fan just told me but st george illawara play 12 home games, of which 4 are in Wollongong, 4 in west Sydney and then when the Sydney teams play them they do it at Anz stadium which is much bigger. Home games in Wollongong get 12-20k and so lifelong die hard fans see 4 games a year (virtually nobody travels away) so if you're wondering why it's there that's my guess.

Then you add the weird Aussies, Sports fans have a very different mentality out here. Games are very well attended by the neutral basically and sports often go on the road, in Aussie rules big clubs play annual home games several hours away. It wouldn't surprise me if it sold out but more realistically I think around 10-12k.

It's a great idea as Super League is getting worse slots on the Fox every year so I'm guessing interest is low and it doesn't take much to re energise it.

I live about a 90 min drive away from Wollongong where my family have have had a connection since 1919 when a Hull aunt married a WW1 Aussie soldier and settled there. Her married sister also from Hull joined her a couple of years later and they had 8 kids between them so giving me plenty of family when I arrived in Aus in 1968. About a dozen relations remain living in the Wollongong area.

Apart from the Wembley game the last Hull game I attended was also about 3 years ago(Leeds away).

Well I'm in! All booked, from Manchester Airport £568 adult return, and £317 all in for a 5 bed room above a pub (who cares!) For 5 days, 4 nights to cover the St George game and double header.
I'm piddling my pants with excitement.

Read it again, looks like he is going for the St George game, which is the double header.

And you sir are absolutely correct. Wish I could have made both games, but I think the missus would have been filing the divorce papers!

Apologies if I'm missing something here, but when people refer to the "double header", which games do they mean?

(hence apologising if I missed something, which I clearly had!)

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?:



Quote: Club Website "Hull FC and Wigan Warriors will compete in an official Super League fixture in Wollongong when Wigan take their home game to WIN Stadium on 10th February 2018. The following week, the two English clubs will then take part in the first ever double-header games between Super League and NRL teams at a single venue when Hull FC face St George Illawarra Dragons and Wigan play South Sydney Rabbitohs at ANZ Stadium, Sydney on Saturday 17 February, 2018'"
