Great stuff bro. I don’t really mind where it’s played because all 5 options are great for the game of rugby league. Excited for Sundays stream (don’t worry I’m drinking water)
as a Papua new Guinean i can attest to the fact we are wild for rugby but yes he is right there are no big stadiums that can cater for the large crowds
Whilst I would love to see the tournament played in NZ. But I would like to see it minnow nations as well with South Africa or the US. New Zealand is the safe decision. But South Africa and the US both have merit as well despite barriers and I personally would want it to be in one of those two nations (maybe Kenya hosts 1 or 2 games if it’s in South Africa as the game is in a good position there as well), it’s ambitious but I would love to see the world cup be played outside of Oceania and Europe
If the United States was to hold it you could possibly just have it in the city of Los Angeles with round robin matches in the LA Colosseum & the Rose Bowl 100,000 seats and then quarters, Semi's & finals in sofi stadium in fact take that back just hold the entire tournament in that sofi stadium
I know when the NRL wanted to take the season openers to America, they were warned away from LA because there's simply too much going on there. There were fears they wouldn't be able to make an impression there. The RLWC would be a different time of year though, so I do like that idea.
Another unreal video mate. You obviously have a deep understanding and appreciation of the game, and it's reflected in the quality of your content. Keep it up 🤙🏽
Im a South African and I say let the boys from the Pacific Islands have it between themselves NZ, fiji, Samoa . Us in SA still have a long way to go in League
New Zealand is the only logical choice. South Africa and the USA are a bit unrealistic given the challenges for each nation when hosting (South Africa being Union country and the US having the NFL season during the standard world cup period) while PNG and Kenya don't have the facilities.
I do agree yeah. I love the fact that there are other countries who want to take on the challenge of hosting the tournament, but to me NZ perfectly balances expansion with realism
@@GreenHornet553 Thanks mate! Out of curiosity - how did you discover Rugby League? Was it anything to do with what the NRL did in Vegas, or something else?
@@TheLeaguie I got into rugby league on a whim actually. A friend of mine who got me into Rugby Union explained the difference between League and Union and then I started looking up stuff about League and have started to get more into the game. Aspects of League remind me of what I like about the NFL.
I agree with New Zealand. It's really the perfect option. 1. New Zealanders know rugby league. 2. The RWC (union) is now probably too big and expensive for New Zealand to host. 3. International rugby league is the strongest and most popular in the South Pacific. Moreso than in Australia where NRL is dominant.
@@danieleyre8913 there's not a country in the world where the majority are a fan of any sport. But New Zealand Warriors do have a fan base and Rugby league is one of New Zealand's 5 team sports with a professional club. The others being rugby union, cricket, soccer and basketball.
@@danieleyre8913 the other countries that are tendering to host the 2030 Rugby League World Cup are South Africa, Kenya, USA and PNG. Compared to South Africa, Kenya and USA, New Zealanders know rugby league.
Another great video mate. Would love to see the RLWC get on the back of the recent Vegas success and push into the United States. We could also take the learnings from the Rugby World Cup there next year and see how we could even better it. New Zealand would be great as well for the expansion of the NRL too. Other options just aren't ready yet.
Yeah I agree. It’s hard to say what the state of rugby league will be in either of those countries in 6 years’ time, but if we continue to steadily build then I think both of those places would be ready
U.S.A. would maybe help promote their USARL a bit more, I know there's a lot of Americans who prefer watching the NRL then union test matches & we need the game to grow more at the international level
@@HannibalLekta-qg2ip Ahahahaha you must be either completely clueless or delusional. Barely event a smudge, an insignificant fraction of a fraction, of Americans are even aware that rugby league, let alone the NRL, even exists.
@@HannibalLekta-qg2ip You are either clueless or delusional. Only a tiny fraction of Americans have ever heard of league. Most are only vaguely aware of Rugby existing.
New Zealand would be realistic and the US too since they can adapt to the game due to similarities with gridiron although the NFL season itself is a challenge as you pointed out. Would also love to see South Africa too have a go despite competition for sponsors with union in 1995, only this time they could get those sponsors if the Rhinos do impress with a quarterfinals appearance. PNG likely to co-host with NZ like they did with Australia in 2017 as it's highly unlikely they'll get full hosting rights for obvious reasons.
I’d be afraid with the USA as the Union world cups in 2029 and 2031 are taking place there and I think both codes would hurt each other if your having it by the!. Personally would love to see either Kenya or South Africa get it as they’d be the first African teams in the wc. But png and nz would be very interesting aswell. We want 16
@@olglez9230 It will probably be England hosting it again. It would be great if NZ hosted it. All of those empty stadiums and utter lack of interest beyond Auckland would show Australians of the numbskull variety just how little most of NZ cares about league.
Over JUST the last two seasons, the NRL has got crowds of: 17,249 in Christchurch 16,676 in Wellington 15,600 in Napier 25,118 in Hamilton So I wouldn't be so confident in what you're saying brother.
@@TheLeaguie And how many people bothered to go to the last league test match hosted in NZ? As for the NRL crowds: They will have faded back to pathetic within a couple of years.
@@danieleyre8913 The two internationals from last year had crowds of 23,269 (Auckland) and 13,500 (Hamilton). So again, both enough. Considering how totally baseless and incorrect your original comment was, I'm not going to think much of your claim that they'll have faded in a couple of years.
Give it to France !! Lol just kidding, although I notice they have tendered for the Woman's WC and are hosting the European WC qualifiers later this year. If USA get up a professional comp a WC held there could be a big boost for the sport in the US.
A professional comp by 2030 is optimistic... although if the NRL backed them then it'd definitely be possible. Semi-professional is more likely - with the aim being that the RLWC will boost development and potentially make it professional in future.
It’s a real shame the French bid fell through for 2025 as I feel that would’ve been a great tournament. I think NZ would be best and capitalise on the Wahs recent success and talks of the Kea wanting to join. USA would be fantastic from a market point of view however the NFL fields may be a little small so I think, outside of the odd larger field stadiums which have already been used, MLS stadiums would be good for some areas. PNG is an interesting one but the stadium situation is a massive issue. Maybe since the hunters bid appears to have fallen through this would be Australias bid to create closer ties with PNG through League by funding the development of newer bigger stadiums based on what Albo was willing to give them or maybe China swoop in and do what they have done in Africa for years and offer to build the stadiums and roads for them. That’s the only way PNG could ever conceivably host a stand alone WC. The African bids are interesting and we’ve seen Kenya come on leaps and bounds recently after union and sevens success and even hosting a France tour last year. If they did a bit of a Jamaica tactic and get as many diaspora players in to bolster the squad then then I could see them qualifying (if we went back to the old system) but hosting as you said would be too much for the infrastructure currently. SA’s big issue is union. Would the crowds turn up? I think the infrastructure is there but the interest and on field performances aren’t currently for SA and they’d need to improve on those areas.
1.) US broadcasters managed to air the Qatar 2022 during their domestic leagues (NBA, NFL, NHL). 2.) USA will be hosting both the FIFA Club World Cup and the CONCACAF Gold Cup next summer. 4:40
You can't compare Qatar 2022 with a domestic RLWC. Firstly soccer has an infinitely stronger international presence than Rugby League, and the soccer world cup is the biggest sports tournament on earth. Secondly - it would have occured at a completely different timeslot than a world cup hosted on american soil.
NZ with some Pacific islands and PNG hosting games would be a safe bet. South Africa with some games elsewhere in Africa could work - NRL would need to play games in SA to break ground in advance of it. USA - cricket has managed to host games there even when there weren't any proper facilities, so it should be doable. Use MLS venues. I don't know the details of why it failed before - probably over ambitious and middlemen promising too much. Get NRL and RFL to organise it directly and don't try to go big with NFL stadiums.
I'd say NZ alone would be a good host. They could use the 2030 WC there to also have an Auckland World 9s to promote it for the brisbane 2032 olympics.
Yeah see to be honest... I don't really care all that much about the political ties between the countries. And I think PNG is the one place on earth (besides Sydney) where rugby league doesn't need to be promoted at all. It's already their national sport.
I’m calling it now…..a nation that doesn’t normally host rugby league tournaments will get the hosting rights,USA or Kenya for example,and then I guarantee a year or two before the tournament it will magically change hosts to either ENGLAND or AUSTRALIA,the same thing happened in 2025!
Yeah I mean tbf it was a little more complex than ‘magically changing’ - France’s funding fell through. But we have seen USA awarded preferential status before and that never materialised
I’d really like to see the Kangaroo tours come back to the uk, France should never get to the chance to host the tournament again, I’m still fuming their World Cup fell through. I was looking forward to going to it.
They could play ruby league word cup be in February because it can the winter and playing elec should be in the sown because most players maybe be Hadfield in ball in the swon
I’m not sure what appetite there would be in South Africa for a rugby league tournament… that’s not an insult to the sport, it’s just that the Springboks are the jewel in the crown of South African sport, and I don’t see a lot of local fans who would be willing to spend money to watch it in the stadium… I certainly don’t think they’ll fill the 40, 50,60 thousand capacity…
That’s not quite fair. In my livestream of the Fiji v PNG game I was hoping the Kumuls would win, and I am supporting them in these pacific championships. On paper, the Kumuls are not as good as many other sides. That’s not be being negative. It’s a positive that they can have less NRL talent, and still compete with some of the best teams
Remember, the US will host the men's Rugby UNION World Cup in 2031. League could steal a march on Union, but it would make too much sense and so they'd never do it, since when has League ever done anything that makes sense?
Union is dying in Australia, but still has a very strong international presence. League is only eastern Australia, Auckland and Northern England. Stop kidding yourselves, everywhere else, it's a blip. Bringing Lebanon into the RLWC because some reserve graders grandmother was born there, is ludicrous. Concentrate on State or Origin. It's as far as you go.
Richard, what's with the negativity? Very league fans few would be "kidding themselves" by trying to claim that league is the stronger game internationally. Most of us enjoy both codes anyway. I do agree with you that union is dying in Australia but that's not good thing for both codes.
Nobody is kidding themselves. I've been vocal in saying that RL is small internationally - but it does exist, and it does have potential. You say it's small and use that as a reason why we should give up. I say it's small and use that as a reason why it has so much growth potential.
