Is it listed or confirmed anywhere that the 6:20pm match will be one of the finals and not one of the promotion/relegation matches?


Fox Sports:

Commbank Stadium:

Wikipedia article on the tournament:


NRL has confirmed that Kangaroos match will be at 4pm


Makes sense to do it that way. Broadcasters will be happy with having Australia playing the 2pm (ish) & 4pm (ish) time slots.

It`s an arse up way of doing it, the main game should be the last event, hope it doesn`t empty out too much after the Kangaroos games,
I was going to say that is going to be a pretty empty stadium for Kiwis v PNG. I get the lead into the news that 9 wants but the Pacific Cup needs to be in a prime time slot, it's supposed to be a major final.

If it’s selling out so fast then maybe Allianz would’ve been a sell out too
I think part of it is the western Sydney location though. Although I think it is a little insulting if they thought that the Islander diaspora wouldn’t travel to the city. I’m just guessing on this though.

Comm bank was the correct choice for this game, ppl are quickly forgetting the abismal crowds last year.

in coming years when the tournament starts gaining momentum we can move to bigger stadiums.

the dream would be to one day sell out accor, maybe by 2040 this could happen :D
Tonga v Australia got over 30k for the pool game

Should’ve swapped that game for commbank and the final at Brisbane
