If the trial game is a success i think they will play more trial games there in future and perhaps in the medium to long term they might even put an NRL club there.

Why would you put an NRL club in England half way around the world?

I doubt they will have a team there for a while yet. It's too small a market and the infrastructure is not really there.

It's all Aussie Rules / cricket grounds in Tassie and even when the Hawks play a few of their AFL matches in Launceston - they'd be lucky to get 8-10,000 to a game.

Doh

A quick check of the headline made me think is was Stobart, as in the stadium in Widnes. I rescind my earlier comment.

You must pay more attention as the old school reports use to say Smile
