I met a handful of Travelling British RL fans in Auckland and Hamilton over the last few weeks and they had embraced the "return", but the stark reality is that the other "lions" drew 20,000 fans here in 2017, whilst if I am generous, maybe 400 made the trip for the GBRL Lions. I can only imagine the financial losses taken (Guess is a minimum £1,000,000 loss at the triple header alone) and how that money would have been better spent on development rather than trying to re-grasp the past |
