66281 for the SL GF this morning. Not NRL, but not bad. Down 4k on last year, though.

Its unfortunate that they have it at Old Trafford.. Ive been to both Old Trafford and Twickenham - Twickenham was better in every single regard. I'm sure they would have been trying to get it there but the Pommy Rugby lads would have been like: No.

OP clearly ditched out when they were teaching Roman numerals at school to wage war over a stolen lemon tree

Ahhh are you serious? It's not at twickenham because that's in london and the game's spiritual base is in the north.

What you've said is like saying "it's a shame the NRL has to be at ANZ because the MCG is superior. The AFL people probably said no"

And before you retort about the challenge cup, I know that's in london, but its the exception rather than the rule.

Making 60,000 people travel to London would be crazy mate.

Saying that the cup final used to sell out the old Wembley... what happened.

old Wembley got knocked down.

New Wembley has had crowds between 80k-90k since reopening.

Lets ignore my ignorance towards the Super League and Challenge Cup.

GF down to single seats now. I saw 4 diamond tickets on ebay going for $150 in total, buy it now.

The fact that GF seats are available on the day is a bad look for the code, the fact that a GF involving two Sydney teams can't sell out looks terrible.

At the ground. Massive improvement on the last gf I attended in 2010. Feels like a bigger event
