If you had to choose. Would you prefer for us to finally win at Wembley, on the 24th. Or England to win the world cup? Winning the World Cup will be better for the International game and the game overall in England. But if that worth loosing at Wembley again?

Hull FC to win the Challenge Cup

Can't believe you even need to ask the question



If us winning meant the demise of England's national team then so be it...

I know this question was asked on the Wigan board (i think) pre season and most picked World Cup. Is it because we are not as decorated? Or because we are only 80 mins from glory.

Hull f c are going to win at wembley anyway so they cant be part of your predicament.

choose another analogy i.e wigan...

Us winning the Challenge Cup, of course.

I'd pick us winning tonight over England winning the World Cup.

Same here. International rugby lost a lot for me when we dumped GB.

So you think there will be 10 minutes of golden point?
Not sure if will be able to cope with that

amended
No extra time in the final.

I'd take England winning the World Cup over Wigan winning the challenge cup. Wigan win titles fairly regularly, but when did England/GB last win a competition that the aussies were involved in? The World Cup in 1960? That would be truly special.

1972 when Sullivan was captain.

Lots of people have lost interest in international rugby and I don't blame them.

Most RL fans don't really care about international rugby, some even boo England players who they don't like or don't like their clubs.

Personally I think it was better when we had GB rather than England RL.

England lose to the Aussies, sometimes beat the Kiwis and always beat Wales, France, PNG etc.

A GB team (which would have players like Brough) would have a better chance of beating the Aussies.

To answer the OP's question, Hull FC to win the cup at Wembley. its a no-brainer.

Tough one, however if it got RL on the map nationally in a way that garnered a greater good for the game ( better sponsorship,national recognition, more playing/involved, better media coverage) then I would sacrifice an FC win over England winning the World Cup.
However as I think our game is so far out of the general public consciousness and the media wouldn't give us that much in the way of recognition/coverage for the achievement in any case it is a moot point.

Us winning the cup. No brainer

I thought there was golden point now if its tied after 80mins?

No, if there is a draw after 80 minutes then there is a replay. No golden point. There would however be a golden point in the event of the replay being drawn after 80 minutes.

So would that be mid week?

It would have to be as there are no blank weekends.

Not too likely though, there hasn't been a drawn final for over thirty years.

Agree with what most people have said, international rugby died the day we scrapped GB, it'd be nice to see us beat the Aussies but there's only going to be one winner when it comes down to hull or England, I'd take us winning tonight over England winning the WC, every time.

Win the Challenge Cup at wembley and finally shut the dobbins, or an England team full of certain big names win the World Cup..

Easy, We Win The Challenge Cup

World cup

Challenge cup waiting a long time to see FC lift the cup at Wembley

No way.

Club over country any day of the week.

Ah the rugby league mentality. No wonder the games ed.

England winning the world cup would mean the square root of jack shiit for the game. Hull winning the CC could be the catalyst to a golden era for the club
