Hmm ive been told Friday 28th Feb in Sydney is a possibility but lets see



Like people have said though the club needs to sort this ASAP to give fans a chance

It's not a club event so is in the hands of the RFL and NRL.

Don't hold your breath then

The RFL will have to consult all 14 superleague clubs plus all the championship clubs before putting the venue of the game to a vote but they may still decide to go with a different venue should that not suit.



I believe favourite is to play a third of the game in Wigan, a third in Sydney and a third on the moon but they've not decided how to fund the trip to the moon yet. They're hoping the sponshirship deal with 'official bingo partners' Foxy bingo may cover it.

Finches rocket

In the current climate expect the RFL to timetable the game for Maundy Thursday in Sydney and then expect us to fulfil the Good Friday Derby.

I can't see Ian Lenegan agreeing to that

Sorry but the RFL has now kicked us out of the WCC match and reinstated Leeds Rhinos as SL champions cause the love Hetherington as he does what they want.



OR



Do they do what he wants. mmmmmmmmmmm

No, I think we should give up our place and let Doncaster go instead.

I am a bit puzzled here, doesn't any match played in league or cup come under the jurisdiction of the governing bodies. (RFL or NFL)



By that I mean the governing bodies organise the relevant fixtures and dates matches are to be played and the clubs just get on with it.



The RFL and NFL will come to a decision on when and where the match is to be played and then it should be up to the Clubs involved to decide how they get there, then it is up to the Clubs to organise any packages or leave it to the individual if the have to make their own arrangements.

Wigan Warriors v Denver Broncos in February then?

It will be a mistake playing in Sydney.

The SFS will be lucky to get half full. Could very well lose money.

Roosters will more or less be the same, Wigan will be without very good players.

The other anomaly is the refs. If it is an Aussie ref, Ashley Klein apart, Wigan could get battered on the penalty count and the score be dreadful.

That has happened before with International matches run by Aussie refs and will most certainly happen again. Wigan should avaiod becoming willing victims.

IL & SW need to think very long and hard about this one.



If Sonny Bill Williams is playing and the other Roosters stars the DW will have over 20,000 in and the game will make a profit. We would have a SL referee who would allow a contest and a great spectacle.

Only one venue for me and that's the DW.

(I was in Brisbane '94 so I do know we've won in Aus before.)
