Quinn Ngawati is on for toronto tonight - first Canadian player to play for the wolfpack

I know they're obviously a new team, but in my opinion it's pretty poor that when they're in a league like this with a squad like they have, it's taken them this long to actually field a Canadian player. Surely they could have blooded a few over the course of the season when they're playing such inferior teams? It's not like putting one or two in the squad would have changed results.

If this thread is turning into a who can pee higher competition in regard to crows, should we not reflect on the fact that over the weekend the whole of super league can not attract what most premiere league clubs would consider a poor crowd for one game? Sort of puts our sport into perspective.

Except we did. Crowd was 8371. Hull sold 1,100 tickets and it seemed there was very little walk-up either.

So in the same vein that Hull fans went missing and will blame the change of day for why our side (over 7k) wasn't higher, perhaps factor in reasons such as tv changes and the day of the game before having a pop at Cas, whose crowds have grown on average by 1000-1500 this year to nearly 9000.

there were more than 1,100 Hull fans. Go read the previous posts, that was the number of pre sales and didn't include on the gate admission. I used Cas as another example in response to the idiotic post regarding attendances.
