PNG to host 3 World Cup Matches, Possibly against England

Reeeeally just want to know how they plan to split the venues. Resigned to the fact that attending even a few games is going to involve a plane trip.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Prime Minister Peter O'Neill is hopeful to host the Rugby League World Cup in the country and some of the stadiums in Port Moresby will be extended to capacity of 50 000 seats or more.

:shock:

Wow, let us in the NRL and host big matches or we'll kick the door in eh?

Good stuff PNG, the one real shinning light in Rugby League.

50k? Just make it happen. 3 games in PNG and you have 20-25% of the total tournament attendance in the bank.
