Re: 2015 FMRL World Cup hosting
Nation: Mercury
Leader: President Joe Foxon
List of venues (at least 6): Freddie Mercury Memorial Arena (50,000)
May Road (33,500)
Ironworks Road (32,000)
Taylor Sporting Club (30,000)
Montreaux Road (27,000)
Galileo Ground (23,000)
Brief paragraph about why you want to host: Mercury previously hosted the World Cup in 2012, and have since reached the final on all three occasions, including two wins. Mercury is the biggest rugby league country in the world, with one ten-team professional league and a six-team semi-professional league. As is usual for Mercurian sporting events, fans will be able to travel between their hotel and the game for free on production of a valid match ticket for that day.

Just to make sure that Ranentsi's membership was accepted, I'll remind you here
Re: 2015 FMRL World Cup hosting
To host:
Nation: Fort Kolgrad
Leader: General Michael Scott
List of venues (at least 6):
*Space City Stadium (50,000), Space City*
*Military Games Stadium (30,000), Nordkamp*
Kolgrad Stadium (6,800, to be expanded to 25,000), Colgrad
*Fort Kolgrad Arena (22,530), Fort Kolgrad*
The Walks (5,733, to be expanded to 21,000), King's Lynn
*Peninsula Stadium (18,000), Cluj*
Brief paragraph about why you want to host: Whilst we are a small territory, Fort Kolgrad and its people are enthusiastic about sports, particularly Rugby League. The most popular sport and the second most played in the area, we feel that development of the game in Fort Kolgrad could be enhanced dramatically by hosting this show-piece event.
Due to the lack of facilities, all stadiums will be either new or expanded, with the new stands at 4 of the stadiums then to be re-used in areas which need them, generating income for developing the game further in our region. We hope that the FMRL will consider us for hosting.

Re: 2015 FMRL World Cup hosting
The FMRL has reached a decision to award the hosting rights for the 2015 FMRL World Cup to Fort Kolgrad!
We offer commiserations to Mercury, whose very strong bid reflects the nation's strong rugby league presence, but the opinion of the FMRL was that the tournament should be brought to new areas of Micras, particularly ones that are already so enthusiastic about this sport.
Congratulations, Fort Kolgrad, I'm sure we'll all have a great time!

Re: 2015 FMRL World Cup hosting
Due to recent territorial expansion and construction problems at some of the other stadia, we are being forced to update our list of stadia. The stadium in Star City has been renamed, whilst it was not practical to build the stadium in King's Lynn, so it has been dropped. Instead, two additional stadiums, in Bergdorf and Redditch, have been added to the list of stadiums to be used, meaning the tournament will be held in 7 cities.
*Gateway to Heaven Stadium (50,000), Space City*
*Military Games Stadium (30,000), Nordkamp*
Kolgrad Stadium (6,800, to be expanded to 25,000), Colgrad
*Fort Kolgrad Arena (22,530), Fort Kolgrad*
*Peninsula Stadium (18,000), Cluj*
Bergdorf Outdoor Stadium (10,000), Bergdorf
*Felmanwick Road (10,000), Redditch*
