See..I don't get this debate about paying for tickets. Surely, it makes no odds HOW you get in to watch the game, so long as you actually DO get in to see the game.
From memory, I would say over 60% of the London Broncos games I went to were freebies......same for Harlequins...I even got into the Crusaders game in Bridgend for free as I organised the coach trip there.....then there's the Kiwis v Englang game in wellington...corporate hospitality.....and the double header......nice food and free beer to boot......then there was the trips over the pond last year....most of those involved me being taken to games by clients/suppliers......then there's the challenge cup finals I attended over the years....ALL freebies from mates in the press.....some with corporate hospitality.......why the f*(k would I pay if I can get it for nothing?
...see dally messenger.....if you can get something for nothing, you should. Kind of like you trying to get any credibility as an NRL guru bu simply getting free links to stories researched and printed by someone else..........something for nothing!
