RUGBY LEAGUE RULES WEMBLEY THANKS TO RLWC2013

Rugby League World Cup 2013’s Big Hit double header of Semi-Finals has been voted by fans as Wembley Stadium’s Best Moment of 2013.

New Zealand’s thrilling clash with England, which was decided by Shaun Johnson’s try in the final minute, was nominated for the award, and it beat off competition from the FA Cup Final, the Champions League Final, the NFL and several other major sporting and musical events held at the stadium this past year to clinch the award.

It means that for the first time since the new stadium opened Rugby League will be immortalised in stone on Wembley Way, and forever remember as the venue’s biggest moment of 2013.

RLWC2013 Tournament General Manager Sally Bolton said “Many people have called the England v New Zealand semi-final the best game of Rugby League they’d ever seen.

“However, considering the competition, it’s fantastic to get recognised like this. It’s another feather in the cap for RLWC2013 and a fantastic accolade.”

Roger Maslin, Managing Director of Wembley Stadium, said: “2013 has been an incredible year for Wembley Stadium, not just through the calibre of events hosted, but for the excitement they have provided. We’ve had last-minute winners in both major football finals, World Cup qualification for the England football team and spectacular musical performances from some world-class acts.

However, the drama of the Rugby League World Cup Semi-Final certainly befitted the occasion, so it is right to commemorate match winner Shaun Johnson with a Wembley Way stone.”

Exactly my sentiments. A lot more interesting than soccer.
I don't know how many times we have to tell the morons but we aren't against rl but rather against those rl fans that perist in putting the Australian game down and cannot acknowledge Australian Football's position in Australia.

Im sure most fumble fans would kill their mother for a tiny bit ,a shred ,a miniscule bit of international recognition.
Sadly all they have is out of control jealousy .

Who gives a shit?

Sook, can dish it, but can't take it.

It was a cracking game for any RL fan & even those who aren't familiar with the game rated it a simply epic sporting event
& what a wonderful achievement for Rugby League to be honoured this way by the City of London & the UK =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

Soccer, their sport .... no
NFL... a massive sport worldwide... no
RL ... yes .. our sport selected as putting on the best game played in any sport .... in the world famous venue this year
