2011 confirmed for next IC, location up for tender

I would like to see it go to New Zealand. Auckland has enough full sized grounds and if supported by the AFL, they also have enough supporters to pull off the big numbers attending. They would also probably get live TV as well, Prime and SKY are good supporters of the game and this could just be the thing to make it go to a whole new level in NZ. South Africa or USA will probably be the AFL's preferances though. The only other country that has strong juniors and seniors is PNG, however I doubt if they are in a position to pull it off!

That's right let's make it even easier for one of the countries benefiting by its proximity to Australia to compete.
I'd like to see it staged in London, New York or LA. Then we'll see how well the southern hemisphere nations go when they have to travel 20.000 kms or so.

You would have to think there would be significant financial backing (or rebates) from a host city/country, plus possibly a significant naming rights sponsor/s as part of a tender to make an overseas location a possibility.
