KC Stadium to host England v New Zealand – report

Hull FC‘s KC Stadium is set to host one of the three test matches between England and New Zealand at the end of the season, according to a report in the Hull Daily Mail.

London’s Olympic Stadium also looks set to be used for one game of the three-test series.

The test in Hull could be either the first game of the series, or a potential series deciding third game.

The RFL is reportedly keen to utilise the strong rugby league links between the city of Hull and New Zealand to help boost the event.

Hull FC had also hoped to host the Kiwis for a game as part of the club’s 150th anniversary celebrations, but that now looks to be in some doubt.
