Last years GF crowd was 68k. Reckon both teams fans fancy their chances this year so could see it bettered.

This is where they should've played the first ashes test, better atmosphere. The Wembley of old was so much better
They are hoping the wembley factor increases the crowd, along with the eternal hope that southerners might actually go to a rugby league game. That and trying to appear as not just a ‘northern’ game.

so soon after gf a lot of fans wouldn’t bother going back to old Trafford in all likelihood.

JWH banned for GF!
Shame to see such a great player miss his last game on the big stage for an accidental clip on a player falling to the floor. If only he was Walsh and it was the NRl making the call!

Saints player failed the HIA from that “clip” - plus it’s the accumulation of points that have got him.
KR are challenging it so we’ll see how it goes

More likely the head knock from knee! Unless he’s got a marshmallow head.

JWH cleared to play.
I didn't watch the semi so when I heard he was facing suspension I thought, well, pretty typical of Jared. And I've always thought he was a bit of a grub.
Then I saw the 'incident' and thought WTF? Even with loading or whatever, soft as to be rubbed out of a game let alone a GF for that. Thankfully, sanity prevails in this instance.

And I thought the MRC here was bad, but gee looking at that tackle how can anyone get 3 weeks for that? I mean the tackle on Jayden Campbell weeks ago looked far worse, and there was no penalty or anything. Glad to hear he's playing.

SL has a points system. The 3 weeks was for going over max points with the charge, not fir the tackle.
Rovers managed to argue that the tackle wasnt high and didn’t warrant a charge.
