You sussed me
I'm gonna spit all over you, by accident of course.
The only way CP would get a game would be if the new north stand is finished, the south has some sort of permanent stand built and the KC is unavailable for another game. Then maybe the RFL would want to have a game in Hull.
Personally think they'll use some of the smaller new stadia like the keepmoat.

Oh and what was it like in 2013 when you time travelled there?
The KC had a capacity of 75000, Rovers had folded, Skirlaugh were playing at Craven Park, Agar was revealed as Hetheringtons love child, James Rule began legal action against Paul Cooke and Justin became head coach at Hull Dockers after they had their SL licence approved.
Yeah i know hard to believe, but all are more likely to happen than CP being a World Cup venue.

Some of the games from outside the Aus-NwZ-Eng-PNG group in the 2008 competition, were played in small, simple stadia and though crowds were far from embarrasing, these small, simple stadia were generally not packed out.
Nobody is saying CP should host England vs Australia. But a bijou ground would be better for Lebanon vs Tonga.

Somewhere like Featherstone Rovers ground would be better for that type of game. I see no draw for Craven Park whatsoever.
