English rugby league fans will get another dose of Reece Walsh after Brisbane agreed to travel to England to revive the World Club Challenge.

There were fears the traditional clash between the NRL and Super League champions would be canned for a second consecutive year due to England premiers Hull Kingston Rovers’ commitments in Las Vegas, where they will open their 2026 season against Leeds.

However, the concept will be revived after the Broncos agreed to travel to the United Kingdom to participate in a clash in February 2026 to determine the best rugby league club in the world.

MKM Stadium, the home ground of Hull FC, is shaping as the most likely venue because of its 25,000 capacity, which is significantly larger than the 11,000 seats available at Hull KR’s home ground.
