I wanna go. I hope there is a package that might include the first Ashes cricket test as well

I never knew it was in OZ next year,good to know anyway.

this means we will be invaded by brits again

Experience Sport will no doubt be doing a tour package.

Im running a tour myself.

You pay $5000, thats about 3 pounds, and you get a warm VB, a sheet of corrugated iron to sleep under and, and, and, and, you get to listen to every game on a real life radio.

Ahhhhh

Ahhhhh

Ahhhhh

Going Independently it'll cost you half the price of a "named" tour.
Either book a hotel or if there's a few of you an apartment. That does come cheap.
Or, as League Freak suggests, sell your Ford Cortina and rent a five bedroomed mansion on Sydney's Northern Beaches area for the same money.

Look, the exchange rates are good.

Book early and you'll get good ticket.

Do a bit of research and you'll find a good hotel at a good price and be able to set your own timetable.

come on down to the st.george dragons leagues club.and see what a real trohpy room looks like

Empty?

dragons dominate everything about rugby league

Well I researched the tours last night and found out they cost about two and half grand and you'll likely get left behind without a hotel room

Definately going to do it independantly with those costs.

One of our group has been backpacking around aussie/NZ and thinks the hostels will do the trick at a tenner a night. I'd like to get it planned with costs but i'd be doing it blind until venues are announced.

Out of interest, how much would a 15 to 18 year old jap estate car cost over in australia? If it's taxed, that's 3rd party insurance right?

Mate, hostels over here are sh*t. You'll get all your stuff stolen the first night, and that will be the high point.

I'd never even consider staying in one.


Think it will cost you a fair bit on the car and the fact is, with the way they will spread games around, you will find its a pain anyway.

Flights between cities in Australia are VERY cheap and once you are in a city , the trains don't cost much at all.

2006 we went to oz and new zealand for holidays, we got lucky as the tri nations were anounced a few weeks after we had booked our flights as we was out there, we went to matches indepenantly, a lot cheaper than some of these supporters tours

(though it does help staying with family in brisbane

)

The car is a little worrying as could lose a fair bit and i'll likely have to take my spanners. It's a pain driving 12 hours brisbane to sydney etc but we'd get to see all sorts on the road trip...great experience.

I'll have a look at the cost of internal flights tonight to gain a better comparison.

OK, hostels are probably a no go then. What is the budget hotel brands over there? I'm guessing you have Holiday Inn as they are multinational, any others?

Thanks
Nick

ah, but has it got a 9's trophy and a fairplay winners one as well, the true mark of success

when we wanted accomodation in new zealand, we went to the local tourist information and they helped us with decent cheap accomodation

better than an empty trophy cabinet

RLFANS WILL BE RUNNING A VERY WELL PRICED TOUR NEXT YEAR

CHEERS

Any idea as to when you expect them to release the dates/stadiums etc?
