Personally I think attendance is important and it is important how is looks on TV. Having 10,000 at an England International is embarrassing to our sport IMHO compared to however many thousands at Football and Rugby Union.

Exactly, far too mnay people underestimate crowd figures. 10,000 at Leigh hardly inspires any major sponsors or publicity. Crowd figures are massive part of any sport and the ones who arent bothered arent the ones dealing with the finances/sponsors etc of the clubs. Low crowds just shows how far behind our sport is. 25,000 sellout at Hull should be no problem if we are serious about developing International RL.

With the momentum that im sure will now be behind this final will the 2nd tier be opened on the big stand at Elland road

Haven't been to an England/GB game since a very one sided GB-NZ game at the KC in 2007...but it really felt like international RL was 'back' tonight, the atmosphere was far better than at any of the previous 3 GB games at the KC and for the first time in many years I have belief in our (mostly) young team.

I was unconvinced at the change from GB to England at the time, but having seen the amount of flags, chants and songs at the game tonight I am convinced it was the right move to push the International RL 'brand' forward.
