Comp after the Super 14

[BDAVEY]

Did I see that there will be world club championship compo being played in Singapore and the EWF will represent Australia. What a fanstaic idea!! be good experiance for the boys aye if this is true lets hope it gets better coverage than last seasons comp.

[GIGS20]

Not so much good experience BDavey as a cheaper way of doing the Development tour.

Great initiative, but really I think this comp is more of a sanctioned training tour for all involved at this point. SIngapore rugby might be able to turn it into something more by ensuring a good bit of prize money, big crowds and a heap of good press. That'll make winning the thing more attractive and coaches will be less likely to put on the academy players.

If 3 exisiting InnFORCEers want to organise a tour I can speak to the Executive Committee and see if we can get it sanctioned as an official InnFORCEers Tour

It is cheaper to fly to South East Asia then it is to Fly to the East Coast of Australia

tiger air per->sin->per (fly out mon 27th, return sat aug 1st) = $265.51 inc taxes, booked over the internet.

[jargan83]

Travelling on those same dates within Australia (Virgin Blue):

Per -> Syd -> Per = $468

Per -> Mel -> Per = $418

Per -> Bris -> Per = $482

Travel within Australia (QANTAS):

Per -> Syd -> Per = $574

Per -> Mel -> Per = $418

Per-> Bris -> Per = $686

[blueandblack]

getting back to the qantas - ansett duopoly prices....

[jargan83]

I would imagine those prices will flucuate with various sales between now and then

they should drop once some more international carriers start doing Domestic Routes within Australia as the Federal Government removed the laws preventing them from doing those routes. We have already seen what Tiger Airways can do, they have a 50% off sale recently (or it could still be going) and they also had a buy 1 seat get the 2nd seat free offer just after Christmas I think. Shame they only fly to MElbourne and Adelaide domestic routes at the moment
