Who's stupid idea was it to have England V Australia as the pool's opening game?
I understand to kick the tournament off that such a game draws attention to RLW however this is hardly fan- friendly for those coming from the Northern Hemisphere.
The game should have been the last pool group as the anticipation would have built towards it and no matter what the result the England fans could have the gone to the knockout games (regardless to whether or not they qualify), whereas now they have the England v Aus game then a couple of dead-rubbers which most will not bother attending.
