Hi folks
This is what i feel would be a great idea for the world club challenge,below are a few examples.
I would get the NRL and SL bosses together and would hope both seasons would start at the same weekend.Three weeks before the season and after each of the champions from England and australia had played two trial games,i would have the WCC.
Now,i wouldnt go for having the game in England or Australia,i would have the game in Malaysia,in the city of Johor Bahru which has one of just two airports in malaysia.In Johor Bahru is the great 30,000 stadium the "Tan sri Hassan stadium".
Rugby union is poular in Malaysia and i feel if this game was marketed correctly it would no doubt be a sell out.
It would make a great holiday for both parties,and the flight times are approx -
From England to Malaysia - Approx 11 hours.
From Australia to Malaysia - Approx 8.5 hours.
It would cost fans money,however it would be a great experience for all involved.The aussies have been coming to the UK to watch the WCC now for 7 seasons and having the game in a warm,neutral country would stop all the critism people throw at the game and i feel people would take it more serious (ie- the clubs and fans).
For example say Canterbury Bulldogs win the NRL and the Leeds Rhinos win the SL,the squads could be -
Canterbury Bulldogs
Coach - Steve Folkes
1 Luke Patten
2 Hazem El Masri
3 Andrew Emelio
4 Willie Tonga
5 Matt Utai
6 Daniel Holdsworth
7 Brent Sherwin
8 Mark O Meley
9 Corey Hughes
10 Willie Mason
11 Reni Maitua
12 Andrew Ryan
13 Sonny Bill Williams
14 Chris Armit
15 Adam Perry
16 Brad Morrin
17 Cameron Phelps
18 Ben Roberts
19 Jarrod Hickley
20 Billy Ngawini
Leeds Rhinos -
Coach - Tony Smith
1 Brent Webb
2 Scott Donald
3 Clinton Toopi
4 Keith Senior
5 Lee Smith
6 Danny Mcguire
7 Rob Burrow
8 Ryan Bailey
9 Matt Diskin
10 Jamie Peacock
11 JJ Buchanan
12 Gareth Ellis
13 Kevin Sinfield
14 Jamie Thackray

The city of Johar Bahru has many great Hotels (cheap) and some fantastic Hotels for all the family.
What do you all think ?
