Judging from reports the crowd is woeful and quiet at Coffs. :crazy:

it would be more worthwhile if the test wasnt on so close to it, therefore test players could play

And those reports would be correct. Crowd looks pathetic, and can't hear a peep out of them. Can clearly hear every call on field :|

Some of the angle shots on Nein looked good but it's dead quiet.

Any chance of the SFS getting the game next year? Supposedly its been wanting to hold it for a while.

Unlikely. Gosford should get it again IMO.

It's been a snoozefest tbh.

I was going to watch this while i wrote an essay. The Americas Cup will be more interesting when it starts.

I need a coffee now.

They've gotta take it somewhere where the crowd will actually be interested in having the game in their town...I'm sure there'd be a decent crowd at Newcastle, only problem is Sydney siders getting to the game after work, so yeh Gosford would be a good choice.

Take it Bush... Who cares about the crowds as long as they are promoting it in the bush.

Take it to a real country town, not a coastal city full of rich seachange wankers from Sydney that gets NRL trial games every year. We've applied to have it here the last few years. Last year they "lost" our application. It was great at Dubbo last year and Wagga was good too. Even Lismore made a good fist of it. There's a common thread there. These towns are all inland towns that don't get many games (Lismore excepted). Lavington was supposed to have it this year but the facilities there needed too much work. They might get it next year. If they had it here it would be the biggest game of footy played in this region for 10 years.

Gosford got 17k in the wet a few years ago IIRC.

They haven't played well with the favourites tag in the past but Qld will need to ask serious questions of themselves this year if they lose the SOO series. This could be a candidate for the worst Blues side ever.

salivor, are you forgetting the rest of NSW who didn't play in tonight's clash? Matt King, Jamie Lyon, Willie Mason, Andrew Ryan, Brent Kite, Nathan Hindmarsh, Steve Simpson, Luke Bailey... plenty of firepower available don't worry.
