The only problem is the MCG is a terrible stadium to watch anything except cricket and fumble.
Unless they can maybe put up temp grandstands on the sidelines then I would lean don’t do it.
Marvel makes more sense and has had a good fan response in the past.

Other two stadiums already sold out

Wonder if they can crack 80 to 90k
I like how it’s sold over 30k and not close to 30k like 28k or 29k.

minor details of course but it’s all very positive and helps build momentum and the excitement.

I knew about the two other grounds which is great news. Some reports are suggesting the Wembley is close to a sell out but that figure is not even half the capacity. :confused:

I do hope its over 50,000
Only tickets in the lower bowl and middle bowl have been released so far which is around 50k.

it’s actually a great marketing strategy as when we hit 45k or so we can announce the lower&middle bowls are close to or sold out and open up the upper bowl which is around 40k.

feeds the momentum and excitement.

Nope it’s correct, only bottom two tiers on sale at moment.
6 months to go and uk fans have forked out for the other two tests and magic weekend this last month. It’ll get over 60k easy at this rate.
When the upper bowl is opened up the RFL should target all the amateur and community grassroots clubs south of Sheffield discounted group tickets.

wow, that’s crazy. I didn’t realise the Roos would be that popular.
They're more popular in England then in Australia it seems. Last year's pacific final had 25k Samoan fans, and the rest were Aussie fans. Kangaroos winning from World Cups and everything else hasn't helped the game over here, but that's all about to change as Samoa will be the next powerhouse.

I blame it on humans not burning enough fossil fuels over the last 100 years, we need to try to double it by 2026.
