Hi Rugby League fans!

Just letting you know that the Official Kangaroos Supporters Group, The Roo Crew is back for the Four Nations and will have dedicated supporter bays at all Australian Tests.

Australia vs England
Australia vs PNG
The Final at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane

The reason we are at the Final regardless is for promotional and ticketing practicality. But we also intend to turn out in force even if the Roos miss out. Which we hope will be a great and positive advertisement for International Rugby League.

If you are in Australia and love the Kangaroos, I invite you to join us by purchasing tickets from Ticketek.com.au we have a dedicated "Roo Crew" area.

We are encouraging fans to wear Kangaroos and Aussie gear but also to wear a club cap or scarf. Let's be a game united like no other sport in Australia with a fantastic domestic, interstate and international competitions. And let's celebrate the dawn of a new era with a possible Independent Commission being given life in November 2010. (Fingers crossed)

The Roo Crew is also about getting mainstream Rugby League fans involved and interested in International Rugby League.

Please join the Roo Crew facebook http://www.facebook.com/theroocrew

I hope TRL admins are ok with this being here. We are officially greenlighted and supported by the ARL and NRL.

GO KANGAROOS!

Do you accept Fijian born members into the 'Roo Crew?

Good idea. Best of luck with it.

Perhaps Northern Exposure could join. I think he's the only Leeds-born, English Kangaroos fan

Seriously, good luck with this. I've met some top Roos supporters both in the UK (on previous Four Nations, World Cup tours etc) and over in Australia.

I doubt you'll have any problem getting to the final - England look to be scraping the barrel a bit in key positions and will no doubt stoop lower than 2008, if that's possible.

[DIEHARDTITAN]

Thanks for the kind words.

Part of the grand goal is to get the word out there, create social relationships between fans and save for a World Cup tour in 2013. It'd be lovely for Kangaroos fans to travel to the UK in large numbers.

I'd be very keen to visit the UK for the 2013 RL World Cup, especially as the $A is so strong against the pound these days - long may that last !

But are we ever to see any details of that 2013 RL World Cup ???

Interested stadiums were asked to pitch over the summer, I think. According to documents I've seen, venues will be announced early next year, with tickets going on sale soon after.

That may have changed though - this is Rugby League we're talking about. Suspect there will be an RLIF meeting down under to conincide with the Four Nations, so we may know more after that.

[DIEHARDTITAN]

I hope we get some news on the 2013 World Cup soon. The sooner the better. And we will be encouraging as many fans to travel as possible and hopefully try and tap into nour legions of expats in the UK as well.

Well 2010 Four Nations is just the start, we will be a mainstay for Tests in the future. So there will be all the chance in the world to join us. It'll be great to have a real life mechanism to meet other international rugby league lovers.

The NRL has made a Roo Crew Commerical. I am over the moon by this sort of support from the top!

Ahhh... was the Roo Crew at Australia v New Zealand in London by any chance?? I think I remember seeing you all with your bright green hats.

I just thought that was a little group of supporters who all just came along looking as colourful as possible

Congratulations to Queensland Rugby League fans for helping sell 350 Roo Crew tickets for the Final which is still just under one month away!

Once again Brisbane and Queensland is proving to be the home of Rugby League!

Please for those that havent bought tickets yet, I'd love to have you there. They are selling fast, so please jump in!

Ticket sales for the Roo Crew in Melbourne are strong, while tickets for the Parramatta AUS v PNG game are still weak.

We will do all we can to ramp up promotion in the next week.

[DIEHARDTITAN]

Introducing the iconic Roo Crew "mega flag" comprising the club flags of the 15 Australian based NRL teams as well as that of the mighty Australian Kangaroos! A visual representation of our vision and mission. A Game United!



If you want to join The Roo Crew, please join us at the Four Nations, we have dedicated bays at Aus v PNG at Parramatta, Australia vs England in Melbourne and the Final.
