If London were back in SL and they did this it would be a bit of an insult!

People do respond to London "events"; RU London Double Header, NFL, NBA etc and surprisingly RLWC semi-finals but most people have don't know what Super League is... The only way I could see this working is if RU drop the London Double Header; I've read on RU boards that it doesn't make the clubs money and they would prefer to get rid of it. RL could step in with a RL double header (including London Broncos). What is more likely though is a game at Craven Cottage in front of 10,000 people and no media coverage.

Have to say the same about watching Wigan, they would have to pay me to go.
Got to say it seems very odd, they have the cc every year, have staged wc games at Wembley why on earth they think a one off game like Wigan saints would draw anymore is confusing.
Not sure what they think it's gonna achieve, maybe it's a reaction to wasps and the first outing at coventry

The RFL never fail to amaze me. Complete and utter tosh.

Lmao, a whole quarter of a century late, the RFL wants to raise the games' profile in the capital.

Get rid of a SL team and bring down 2 clubs from towns in the North West and try and sell it. What are they thinking about?

Isn't the Challenge cup final what they are trying to achieve???

Wish one (or even 2) of the World Club Challenge games were played in London as I can't be arsed to trudge all the way to the M62 to watch one.
