Still can't make my mind up about it all. I've been looking forward to this comp for years, and making it a big tour of Aus as the same time. But the sh*t that comes out of the ARL has really put me off, from the stupid structure of the groups right through to the tickets bullsh*t, and with a myriad of decissions in between. We have such a wonderful game, but we contnue to make things difficult for ourselves.

I guess i need to make a decission soon though.

Exactly. I'm not targeting nadera78 here but there are a lot of people out there who are only spouting off negatives about the WC. What on earth do they expect to happen if they don't get behind the competition?

for those people going to games, i applaud you and the 200 other people who will be there with you.

Unfortunately, some of us have better things to do than attend fixtures in the farce which is international rugby league.

let me guess f**knuckle you got watch the wallabies play?

Yeah, I know that. But it's a lot of money to spend for what should be a celebration of our game, but given the ARL's track record it could turn out to be a complete farce. I go to a lot of GB games and it costs me to travel from London, etc. Sometimes I just get fed up of the admin f**king things up and just taking me (and all of you) for granted.

I want to go, I just have some quite serious nagging doubts.

Planning to go to 4, possibly 5 games. Also encouraging at least 9 others to come to the Final.

Can't wait!:D

Pretty much decided to only go to the final in the last couple of days. Doubt I'll go to any others, as I follow the Pura Cup so that takes up a bit of my time anyway.

Most of my mates hate Intl. footy :evil:

It will take a while to get over the farce that has been International footy for a while. It won't happen easily. Bring them along to a GOOD match (ie. NZ, Aus, GB- the supergroup), then they might change. As it is I am hesitant about this World Cup, hence I am only going to the final!

New fans won't agree. They may be good matches..they also may be beltings! Take them to a Australian match, at least then they will see genuine stars playing.

Good to see you support the Shield mate, not many people (including me) do these days.

Personally those are the games I am looking forward to most.

I am stoked about the game at WIN...my home town. Anyone that is going to that - drop me a PM and we'll get on the cans.

Actually find myself enjoying it more when I go to the Pura Cup, so I keep going. Very happy to travel for a Pura Cup match rather than a ODI match. Plus I see the up and comers.

I am looking forward to the league World Cup, but becuase of the cricket season starting I doubt I'll go to more than the final. I may go to a Australia-GB game if possible, but it depends on the Pura Cup schedule!

I'll get to as many games as possible, probably will avoid the Australia games though. I'll only go to the games with the lesser nations, I have a lot more interest in those games than games involving Jamie Lyon, Willie Mason and the other f**ksticks wearing the Australian shirt. Besides that I doubt the Aus-GB/NZ/PNG games will need the extra patronage.
