I still don't know why they insist on going to Elland Road for the final, its a dump.

Might go to the game at The Keepmoat as looks like its on my birthday, but I won't be falling over myself to get to the Galpharm or the JJB.

Eastlands will only hold so many "non-football" events in a year such as concerts, boxing ect. I don't know if thats something the Stadium Managment decide or if it was part of the planning permission.

The Stoop is also limited to what it can do away from Rugby I believe.

Very much so.
Teams in the south are well supported ala Wasps and Quins.

I have heard rumour that they play a bit of rugby union in the Twickenham area.

as to be expected - the Aussies are whinging about something & anything.

Get over yourselves chumps, we are hosting it and playing it by our rules this time.

Blaming the English for this when an Australian is in charge of the RLIF. :roll:

They also seem to be confused about who is in charge, the RFL or the made up RLF, or the RLIF. Richard Lewis is apparantly the executive chairman of an organisation that doesnt exist.

I would have though the Leigh Sports Village would have been a better option for England v France. It seems quite Yorkshire biased.

I think that Donny is an All Seater may have been influential in the decision.

The South isn't just London.

Apart from Quins which other pro Union team play in London nowadays?
