Adverts around the ground today for next year's games, good idea.

Not knowing specifically when or where these games take place or when tickets are going on sale, bad idea.

It needs sorting.

I hope we can get games at St James Park, the Etihad and Olympic park. I'd have the Scotland game at the DW or the KC.

No idea when the games are going to take place, really?

I reckon it'll kick off with a double header of NZ V Aus / Eng v Sco maybe at Newcastle.

Really need to ramp it up early not just after the Grand Final.

I think the double header at Newcastle is a good idea cos people up there know about thus sport a bit more now and we would have a good chance of filling that ground. Also it is close to Scotland and we all know that there will be a game in Scotland as well.

I will just throw in a debating point here: They are gonna take a game to Scotland, that we know but they wont be able to get 20,000 in a ground up there so I would say that they might consider putting the double header at murreyfield. I'm not saying I want that but you know, its a thought.

Newcastle on the opening weekend with England playing Australia and New Zealand playing Scotland would be my choice.

Week two I'd go England verses Scotland at the KC with the Aussies and Kiwis playing at Langtree Park.

Week three I'd have another double header at Olympic Park.

The final I'd play at the Etihad.

I'd live to think they can pull that sort of schedule off.

I would like to see and think we should go for

Eng v Scot @ Headingley
Aus v NZ @ DW

Eng v Aus@ Olympic or Wembley
NZ v Scot@ double header

Eng v NZ @ Etihad
Aus v Scotland @ KC

I'd be amazed if Man City, Newcastle or West Ham allowed RL to use their grounds in the middle of a season.

What's the point of Scotland been in it really

Man United allow us to use Old Trafford. Man City allowed the Union lot to us the Etihad, Newcastle allowed them to use St James Park and Aston Villa allowed them to use Villa Park.

I agree it may not be easy but it's not impossible. I'd hope West Ham would have little choice by the way given that they've been handed a stadium built from tax payers money.

It is daft isn't it; they are going to get beaten 3 times and 80-0 each time. Like I say as well, in the past there has been a game in the other European country so prepare for a crappy attendance in some shed of a ground in Scotland somewhere.

In the end you have to blame Wales but mostly France for losing the European Championship to Scotland. I know they have Danny Brough but France should be winning that comp most times and should be beating Scotland 9 times out of 10.

Which of course comes back to the fact that we need to be playing these countries regularly. A mid-season break of a couple of weeks to play both Wales and France twice.
