I'd say an 80k stadium, also can be used for F.A Cup Semi Finals and any other big sporting events, have the Super League Semi Finals at Old Trafford and St James' Park and the final at Huddersfield. Challeng Cup Final can remain at Wembley, but the semis both at Huddersfield? Also can be used for internationals.

Let's go the full hog and have the SL Grand Final on the moon.

It's doable honest. :roll:

Daftest idea I've heard for a long time.

Challenge Cup - should remain at Wembley. It's been there 80 years (bar the recent closure) and we would be stupid to move it.

Grand Final - Old Trafford is perfect. It get pretty much full every year.

Magic weekend - it's about spreading the word. Dublin next please!

Internationals - the current spread gives most fans a good chance of getting to one near their own home.

this idea comes up every now and then and its seriously a really dumb idea.

1. does RL have a spare 50 - 300 million pounds to waste
2. how many times would it would used

lets get salford, saints, bradford, hull kr in new or upgraded grounds.

Not as daft as the one on Monday about having the play-offs halfway through the season :shock:

I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Don't see the point, plenty of good stadiums around we can and already use for 'show-piece' games. Unnecessary expense if you ask me - use the money to build us a new ground :wink:
