Re: 2013 World Cup : Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:52 pm  
It's disappointing to see that London will not host any games - I assume that some sort of bid will have been launched. Surely a game involving either Australia or New Zealand would have been worth playing at The Stoop or one of London's soccer grounds. As it is, it seems rather short-sighted to ignore the capital city.

On the plus side, well done to Bristol for being the only city in England outside the heartlands to get the nod.

Not all the locations have been announced have they? And the semis haven't been announced so it's quite possible that London will get one of the semis. At least I hope they do as it would be foolish to ignore London, especially after the response from southern people to staging the 4 nations match at Wembley.

Re: 2013 World Cup : Sun Dec 04, 2011 3:17 pm  
I was just having a think about where the 2013 World Cup games could and should be played. In the RFL press release and press conference they said that the chosen grounds would host 'a group game' and/or a quarter final. Unless I've missed something some grounds must be hosting more than the one game.
Anyway here are my ideas so far. Thoughts?

Group A - Top 3 Progress to Quarters
Australia v England - Hull
Fiji v Ireland - Rochdale
Australia v Fiji - Headingley
Ireland v England - St Helens
Australia v Ireland - Limerick
England v Fiji - Huddersfield

Group B - Top 3 Progress to Quarters
New Zealand v Samoa - Warrington
Papua New Guinea v France - Perpignan
New Zealand v France - Perpignan
Papua New Guinea v Samoa - Avignon
New Zealand v Papua New Guinea - Halifax
France v Samoa - Avignon

Group C - Top Team Progresses to Quarters
Scotland v Tonga - Hull KR
Tonga v Italy - Salford
Italy v Scotland - Leigh

Group D - Top Team Progresses to Quarters
USA v Wales - Bristol
Wales v Cook Islands - Wrexham
Cook Islands v USA - Whitehaven

Group C/D Inter Group Matches
Scotland v USA - Hull KR
Tonga v Cook Islands - Whitehaven
Italy v Wales - Neath

Bristol says thanks. If you're really in Devizes, then you're in a town that I'd like to host the third (or maybe fourth... there is another...) Wiltshire RL team. PM me if you'd be interested.

According to the AMNRL USA Tomahawks v Wales may be a double header with Australia v England to open the 2013 World Cup at the Millenium Stadium.

That would be pretty good, especially if the AMNRL aren't involved.

Possibly from reading this: http://stevemascord.com/2011/12/04/bond ... mber-2011/

Although some of the flawed logic from Niu in that interview makes me think that there isn't much chance of things being run properly while he remains in power.

His quotes are all over the place. If he really wants peace then he should try his damnedest to achieve it.
The last line is very depressing, 'Niu said no peace talks were currently planned'.
