lets play STATE OF ORIGIN & WAR OF THE ROSES @ WEMBLEY : Tue Apr 07, 2009 6:31 am  

its just sour grapes from some of the neg mis sods in england . you could use origin . too pump up more fans . get war of the roses back . play 2 games at the same venue . like wembley . when the fans see the brutal warfare like SOO they will go crazy for it . all the players will want too play at wembley on this day . pump them up aswell . if its done right it could turn out too be 1 of the greatest rugby league days of the year .if we could get 2 games played at wembley . same day . the fans would go crazy . tooheys blues cockroaches vs xxxx maroon canetoads

i think in the midst of this seemingley drug induced ramble there is a cracking idea. War of the roses in a similar style to state of origin played in yorkshire and lancashire but not wembley.

the last few times it was played the crowds were 8-10k so there is some interest. [/quote]

Considering the England don't play together I can't see this working - Wigan n Saints V Leeds?

What would the point in any of these matches be?

It could help the england team by getting the top english players together more often and also give players outside of the saints,wigan and leeds clique a chance to show what they can do.

The only point i can think of would be entertainment which does seem a fair point to me.

Naturals V import? would be a good game but the imports would be tagged as the bad guys....... sounds good.
