I hope so ! Great atmosphere in and around Sydney in 2014

Not sure it would be a wise move for us tbh. That Roosters team looks pretty special at the minute and it could be a long night for us with a new-ish team being pulled together.

If we have to go there then I’d rather that then not play them but we could really do with the Home advantage.

They have what looks like the best two centres on the planet, so good luck to Gilly and Sarge or whoever has to keep them quiet!

Been told it's deffo happening

Agree regarding new team
But remember we had Matty Bowen/Burgess/Bateman/Sarginson & Pettybourne all in the 17 making their debuts (Or 2nd/3rd game in Budgie's instance).

How many would we be likely to take this time though? 3 trips to Sydney in 5 years is a pretty big ask of people. Be good for me though, quick flight over the ditch.

Why can't the self important tossers come over here, Why is the NRL so arrogant

It could be made fairer if someone from, say Leeds, was to referee the game..............

Self important tossers

I think arrogance is generally an Australian thing, not just limited to the NRL.

You've lost me, do we even have any top referees from Leeds? Holdsworth out of retirement?
