Having emigrated to Melbourne last year, I was gutted that I could not be there to witness the double live, although I was up every weekend at 5am to watch on Aussie Eurosport or the radio. I'm looking forward to meeting up with my fellow Wigan fans in Aus to shout on the boys..

If anybody needs any help when booking, give me a shout for advice. Roll on the Wcc

Fair dinkum random dave!!!!!

My lowest ebb was getting up in the middle of the night to witness our not performance against Huddersfield!!!

I've loved having both the super league and nrl to watch throughout the winter here, I used to get so depressed throughout the winter, this winter has been an absolute pleasure thank you shaun wane and the Wigan club . I can't thank you enough for the joy you have brought me. Wigan till I die.

It's not a club event so is in the hands of the RFL and NRL.

Don't hold your breath then

Re: World Club Challenge in Australia : Thu Oct 10, 2013 8:23 pm  

The RFL will have to consult all 14 superleague clubs plus all the championship clubs before putting the venue of the game to a vote but they may still decide to go with a different venue should that not suit.

I believe favourite is to play a third of the game in Wigan, a third in Sydney and a third on the moon but they've not decided how to fund the trip to the moon yet. They're hoping the sponshirship deal with 'official bingo partners' Foxy bingo may cover it.
