Australia England Rugby
Why isn’t the Rugby League World Club Challenged played in Australia instead of England ?
Just wondering, ok i know Rugby League was actually invented in England and originally known as “Northern Rules” as a break away from “Rugby”, but for years now the English have been pathetic! Why not reward the World Champions by staging this event in Sydney as an annual “Test”. Not as a end of season trip away on the booze in a freezing cold bloody England?
Thanks Graham, great info, didn’t mean to degrade the English Super League,its just that RL is huge in Sydney, i think the results would be different if the location and timing of the game was altered.
It’s all about the TV audience. If it was played over here the Northere Hemisphere simply wouldn’t tune in. Sponsors can’t and won’t take that kind of risk when there are greater numbers watching over there.
