Finally, gonna buy my tickets when the telephone purchasing opens. Has anyone else ever had problems with their ticketing website? I just tried to buy my tickets on there and it works fine until it gets to the confirmation screen and then won't load it properly and there is no button to confirm it. Now I don't know if I have bought the tickets, I don't think I have but I will have to ask the bloke on the phone. This happened when I bought my ticket for NZ as well and ended up just having to ring up.

London on a Sunday, unusual.

Was on hold for 10 minutes so tried the website again and it worked this time. Huddersfield and Liverpool for me. Does anyone know when they send the tickets out cos it doesn't tell you that when you order on the website.

Happy with the Olympic Park and Anfield for the final

But bizarre choices in Hull KR hosting the opener.

Underselling England vs NZ. We've had proven big 40k - 60k crowds for this game yet we limit it to 20k at Huddersfield.

Double header starting at 5pm finishing 10pm at Coventry on a cold bonfire night again underselling a marquee event of Australia vs NZ that got over 70k last time they played on UK soil, yet we not bolt it on as a double header in a medium sized RU stadium.

Putting the number one team in the world in a conference standard stadium in Workington.

Not having the two Scotland games in Scotland is ridiculous.

Anfield is a decent shout for the final, the new main stand should've been completed by then.

The End v NZ game should be at a bigger more ambitious venue.

Coventry is a great area to try and gain interest in the sport. Look at the success Wasps have had since their move.

Olympic Stadium - can't argue with that one.

There is a certain irony in that the only trophy Anfield will ever see being lifted again is a RL one.

Pretty much agreed with what's been said.

Olympic stadium and Anfield happy with. Would have preferred Etihad as final as it's bang in centre of M62 but I understand it's not easy to convince football clubs to have a game of RL on it.

As has been said, having Nz/Eng at Huddersfield is completely underselling it and the game at KR I just don't get at all.

Why not have those two games as a double at Newcastle where we have a presence for expansion with Newcastle Thunder and Magic weekend.

Also the amount of time it's taken is a joke! The RFL knew the team's that were competing. They should have been sorting this way before the NZ test series started. But the RFL are an organisation that once the test series finished, they then thought "now that tournaments over let's start planning the next one"

Daft decision to pick Coventry, 32,000 capacity stadium ,no credible team ( sorry Bears fans - watch out the RFL might fast track you like they did Celtic Crusaders, and that ended well didn't it?) - 44,000 at Stratford last year for Eng v NZ, add the Aus v Sco game and it would have sold out no problem. Or if West Ham put up too many objections the double header could have got 50-60,000 at Wembley.
Stupid decision from whatever way you look at it. They might well sell out the Ricoh but the double header should be good for a 40,000 capacity minimum. RFL cutting it's nose off to spite it's face for what will probably only be a 'novelty' event. You couldn't make it up!

There's a chance that they picked some of the "smaller" venues to try and change the mindset of RL fans.

i.e. these are likely to sell out so buy your tickets now - larger venues tend to sell slower as there's not the same impetus to buy early or miss out.

I was thinking something similar to this, maybe thinking that a full ground looks better than a half empty one even if there are less people in there. Do agree with others though that Kr and Cumbria are ridiculously small venues and eng v nz could have been in a bigger ground.

Remember though that west ham have chosen to increase capacity of Olympic from original 54,000 stated to 60,000 and anfield will have a capacity of 54,000 when the tournament comes about so there are a couple of big grounds. But yeah as a whole it is ridiculously unambitious once again.

I wonder how many addresses in the RFL database of ticket buyers for big events are in Nottingham, Derby, Brum, Cov', etc. Coventry is right in the middle of them. I have no idea myself, but it may turn out to be a superb choice.

I'm going for the same reason I'm going to Anfield. I've never been and want to get a look.
