WCC in OZ in 25???

[Exiled Wiganer]

I know this is really tempting fate, but please bear with me.
I need to get over to Oz sometime in the next few months, and can be flexible as to when I do so to an extent. While I need to be in Brisbane, I could go to Sydney easily enough.
So… if we win the Grand Final, are we likely to play the WCC in Oz next year? Or is that not feasible, given that we are giving up a home game to play in Vegas??

Well I’ve been told if Penrith win their comp they won’t travel to the UK for the WCC & I can’t see Wigan, if they win, go to Australia, when the "Vegas" & WCC are within a week!

Thanks, Josie! V helpful, as always.
(Someone pointed me to an article which suggested that the vegas game could become the WCC, if the relevant teams are due to be there that weekend. Maybe rubbish, of course.)

I would wonder if that will happen. However, given how soon all the organisation for an event like this has to happen, I doubt they could change things around after the grand finals (and the protracted negotiations that always preceed a WCC game). I imagine commitments have been made, flights booked accomodation arranged etc already.

Probably better off sacking it next season but would be a pity it couldnt be played in vegas if said teams qualify

Better hope the Roosters, Sharks or Storm win then.

Possible, but unlikely!

I can’t see past a Melbourne v Penrith final.
