England v Tonga Test Series 2023

[Perth Red]

All the league fans on trl complain there aren’t enough tours by sh teams then when they are they don’t show up

Bit like australian and nz not turning out for the kangaroos or kiwis? You reap what you sow, one day rugby league may take international game seriously and we may see better crowds.

Nrl 20k crowd average
60k for origins

and the pacific cup has bigger crowds than samoa vs tonga

it’s obvious the game In England has a lot of issues

You don’t say, very insightful lol

for the size of nrl and origin crowds the lack of support for the Australian national team is pitiful.

Int rugby league would be better without the Roos that’s for sure

 

[Perth Red]

It’d be better if the Roos werent so good lol.
Take out australia and we have 4 very competitive teams with two others not light years behind.

They can play the all Victorian team in a hybrid sport

nz samoa Tonga England now that’s a four nations

Problem is, it never seems to affect the All Brats. And with the other WC final it’s still the usual suspects..League at least had a Pacific nation at last years final. Damn frustrating

 

[Wb1234]

Expected crowd 12.5 k another poor result

hudds was a bad choice

That’s really bad. Wonder if it will affect the planned Samoa tour next year as Tonga will be the 3rd team in the 2024 PC..

Kangaroos play union
Wallabies play league

Probably not

samoa touring would be good

but again we miss out on tonga vs samoa

I’d prefer australia to tour and it was nz Samoa and tonga

 

[Perth Red]

9.30pm wast
12.30 aest

It’s the first time ever a second tier nation has toured. It’s not like tonga is full of household names to the English.
Keep building and we’ll get there. Give up at first attempt and we never will!

 

[Perth Red]

Probably not

samoa touring would be good

but again we miss out on tonga vs samoa

I’d prefer australia to tour and it was nz Samoa and tonga

I’d prefer Samoa and Tonga came to uk and there was a4 nations inc France with some games in France.
Aus can play a test series against nz in nz.

 

[Get Rid of The Donkeys]

It’s typical sht advertising. England has a marketing gold mine in welsby and Lewis yet haven’t seen them at all this week, they should be plastered across social media and tv adverts.

Not enough people in England care about rugby league.

 

[This Year?]

Sipi Tau!

 

[Wb1234]

Giants average 5k in this stadium lol

 

[Wb1234]

Radley trying to milk it

 

[This Year?]

That looked too easy.

 

[Wb1234]

Try off a dodgy penalty to the home side
