I have more faith in the smaller games selling out around the joint than some of the big Sydney games.
I don't know why people are so negative, RL is a lot bigger out here than it is in England, Australia never wants to look bad in regards to International events, if this one fails, it could hurt us getting other events like the Soccer WC, we are show offs, and as usual, the band wagoners will do their bit to be seen.
Let the whingers, whiners and trolls spew their crap as much as they like, it will be wishful thinking on their part.
The Union WC had to be massively promoted out here for years because it's a minority sport compared to the top two, they had to buy RL players to give it a boost in profile, they didn't have a club comp to look after like the NRL, they had a few tests a year and a 12 week S12 comp to look after, that's why it was pushed so hard, we don't need to push so hard because RL is in the blood, as the season goes on, the promotion will pick up, people will know it's on and they will go to games and drag their family and mates along for a good time.
Yes people will bag it beforehand because it's RL, but that will not stop people going, if died in the wool Leaguies who can't stand union went to the Union WC, I'm sure Leaguies will attend the League WC.
